  • Great Plugin and Support!

    The way it handles the variations is terribly easy and most importantly saved me from wasting an incredible amount of time! While in other plugins you update products one by one, here you have one central "console" and everything is updated automatically. Even if you add a product with variations, if it's the same as one of the existing ones, it will just update! Perfect!Also, I just bought it - an hour ago - one setting was not as I wanted it to be. I made a ticket. The response and solution was IMMEDIATE!!! These guys are amazing.I highly recommend them.
