Works perfectly
So I needed a simple (?) add/remove a promo category to all products that are on sale (and remove it once they're not any more); and initially this plugin did work, but it was not perfect in my specific setup / installation; but to my greatest (and positive!) surprise, once I reported it as a bug or request for improved functionality it WAS indeed improved within days! In my mind that's even better to if it had worked perfect from the get-go. So currently it adds and removes said category automatically and flawlessly and I couldn't be more happy about it! big kudos to the dev team!

Great Plugin for Automating WooCommerce Categories, but Needs Some Improvements
This is the best Automatic Product Categories plugin for WooCommerce that I’ve found on the market! It brings WooCommerce much closer to Shopify’s collection organization. I manage around 300 product categories (and counting), so finding the right category in the "Categories/Tags to Add/Remove" list can be a bit challenging. Additionally, it would be great if the "Conditions" column included an option to add an "Or" condition. I’d love to see these improvements in a future update. Keep up the great work!

Shopify Collections for Woo
Probably the closest thing I've seen to bringing the power of Shopify's collections to Woocommerce. Bulk editors are okay but once catalogues get very large, even they will struggle. Look forward to seeing this develop further!
