  • No proper integration with WPML

    Does not integrate well with WPML - you want to limit the product availability in one country and then you have to go through all the language versions and set this option for that product.

  • No answer for hiding products from default theme shop page

    I'm using Storefront by WooCommerce.The plugin fails to hide products on the shop page. No sensible reply from the developer about why this is not working.

  • Great Product and Great Support

    I had some issues at first while configuring global country restriction rules, but I contacted the plugin support and they sent me a fixed version of the plugin, so everything is working as expected now. I had similar issues with my setup before while using another plugin, but their support couldn't help me, so I had to find another solution and it worked with this plugin. So if you need to have multiple global rules (used for example on many product variations), I recommend choosing this plugin.
