The Collective has been life changing for our shop. We design and produce our own home decor products, but with the Collective we've been able to expand our offerings and provide context for our collections. Highly recommend.

We have used Collective to share independent brands that we love and it has been seamless and wonderful. Previously we had used a lot of plug-ins and other tech to support this kind of connection with other brands and it was always buggy, expensive and horrible. Collective is awesome!

We were among the first users of Collective and it's been such a lifesaver for our business. Gone are the days when we would send orders via email, copy and paste tracking numbers, pay vendors manually, update inventory manually or via scripts, and manually import products. Because of the native integration with Shopify, there is really no other app that has been able to match all of Collective's features.

We've been using Collective since 2023 and it was great then and even better now! Amazing how much feedback has been received + implemented by the team at Shopify over the timeframe. Each day we're finding more great brands and products to add to our store and Collective's Discover feature is a huge part of that. Between us and the many supplier brands we've partnered with it's been a "no-brainer" not only for the ease of launching, but also for the new sales channel growth.
