    What merchants complain about

    “I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND PURCHASE!!! App stopped syncing with my inventory on Shopify so some products were showing as out of stock without me knowing and also now I can't use the shopify inventory reports which helps with manufacturing production schedules. I have been trying to get a hold of the app people for over a month now and shopify can't even get them to respond.”
