What Merchants Think

Overall, merchants appreciate Shopify Bundles for its ease of use and the potential it has to simplify inventory management by allowing the creation of product bundles from existing stock. However, many users express significant frustration due to the app’s limitations, such as compatibility issues with sales channels and certain features that were expected but lack full functionality.

Key Strengths

  • Easy setup and navigation.
  • Effective inventory management, preventing overselling of individual products.
  • Good for creating simple bundles from existing products.
  • User-friendly interface, ideal for merchants new to e-commerce.

Common Concerns

  • Bundles not compatible with external sales channels like Google, Facebook, or Instagram.
  • Limitations on the number of variants and options per bundle.
  • Recurring technical bugs affecting inventory listings and stock updates.
  • The lack of support for subscription models and custom shipping profiles.
  • Inability to display bundle contents automatically on product pages.

Final Thoughts

While Shopify Bundles has shown potential as an integral tool for managing product bundles efficiently, especially with its straightforward interface and inventory integration, it falls short in crucial areas. The limitations, particularly the lack of support for popular sales channels and persistent bugs, have led to dissatisfaction among users. Future updates addressing these issues could significantly enhance its utility and appeal.

RUBBISH!! So disappointed as I spent a whole day creating these bundles only to find out it doesnt publish to FB or Google sales channels (?!). Also, it messes up your packing slips as the bundles are not shown as bundles but as separate producs (lots of customer confusion). The worst app we have ever tried. Talked to support and they could - of course - not help.

You can't create a direct-to-checkout link for a Bundle. Shopify's own products, both of them. And yet, impossible. So you must send your customers to the Bundle home page, and from there they do the 'add to cart' thing. Why? Why why why. Whhhyyyyyyy. It's a computer. They can do anything. Just make it do this.

The fact that it is free, is amazing and it starting to become very important to stock control as I have some items that have 9 or 10 different customers but can something be done about the Packing Slip, why should the customer see what the contents of their order has in it - they should just see the Bundle Product name - not everything else

Works fantastically on our store, presents bundles well to the customer however doesn't publish out to Facebook or TikTok, doesn't collect reviews from Judge.me. Frustrating as if those issues were solved it would be excellent.

It works, but has less flexibility than the same feature in 40-year-old POS systems. Hoping for more options and features in the future. Would love to see: - a toggle for whether or not to reveal the parts of a bundle to the customer - support for more sales channels - auto calculation for cost and weight based on bundle components - support for add-on products

This is more of a review of what I was told it would do. In shopping around for a new POS, our Shopify salesperson assured us we could use Bundles as a tool to receive inventory, as our inventory often comes in packs to be broken down. Shopify only allows one barcode, and because we use more than one barcode, one for the item and one for the package, she assured us that we could use this in Stocky to receive bundled merch. It was a lie. But she did sell us on Shopify POS. I really wish we had gone with someone else.

The app will show the bundles as OUT OF STOCK on Collection pages if you don't select the option to "sell when it's out of stock"... It means you CAN'T MANAGE THE STOCK!! I lost 3 days trying to solve the issue with SUPPORT TEAM, but was useless... Ridiculous!!!!

A bundle app built into Shopify is a great first step -- but this app is incredibly limited. Doesn't really replace any of the paid apps we need because what it does is so narrowly focused. I've been using it for a year now and am disappointed that more useful functionality doesn't exist for Product Add-ons, upsells, cross sells, etc. The only thing we really use this for is to create bundles with a SKU that we can sync to Amazon. Otherwise Multipacks sold on Amazon would completely break our inventory count, and essentially showed that the Shopify inventory system was functionally broken. This app fixed that issue, but still leaves us paying for several other Bundle and Upsell apps monthly that offer full-featured bundle functionality.

Sehr hilfreich um einfache Bundles zu erstellen um im Nachgang intern eine einfache Produktaufstellung der verkauften Produkte zu haben. Wünschenswert wäre eine Erweiterung für eine Mix and Match Option im Front End, sodass der Kunde sich selbst Bundels aus einer Reihe optionaler Produkte zusammenstellen kann. Derzeit sind Bundles vornherein fest und bieten wenig bis gar keinen Spielraum für den Kunden.

Absolute rubbish. Spent hours creating new bundles only to find out that the new bundled products can't be published to FB or Google sales channels. What good is a product on a website if you can't market it!!!

Bundles work great, when it works. Some update on Shopify's side broke the ability for a bundled product to work with both MetaFields and MetaObject driven pages/themes. Our use case is that we offer a product quiz to customers, which selects a specific product and size (but color doesn't matter). Bundles allow us to pre-select the size for customers, and we place that bundled product on a custom page. If your web page (where you embed the product) is driven from a metaobject or metafields link to the product, it won't work (shows out of stock, glitches). If you embed the product in the theme it works, but it means you need one theme per page/product (negates the benefits of metaobjects/fields). We escalated to support, but they kept blaming our customizations -- even though we're using the out of the box 'meta' features of Shopify. We're using Dawn btw.

Impossible to access the product bundle components in liquid/theme. It used to work, but no longer does.

This is a good example of a feature that is 90% on the way to being perfect, but the 10% of functionality that is lacking causes the feature to be unusable. Most themes don't seem to support bundles at all, which leads to sub-optimal experiences like the bundled product pages not being able to show any details of the individual products that make up the bundle! Liquid code doesn't seem to have access to product.bundle_components and theme developers say they won't update their themes to support bundles as it's an external app feature and not a native shopify feature.

Easy to set up and navigate. Like that our inventory is properly maintained. Wish it calculated the cost of the bundle. BIGGEST ISSUE: Google, Facebook, Instagram, and Postscript aren't allowable options for Sales Channels. That's crazy! I'll use it for this short Valentine's Day holiday but with have to uninstall and go back to our other bundle app just because of this issue.

The app doesn’t work. If you try to delete a bundle, it deletes all the variants of the underlying products inside.

It works really well. BUT the bundles cant be exported to google shopping, facebook and so on, which does that you really cant use this app if bundels are important.

The limits are to great to consider this app. You can only have 3 variants or 100 options. For stores with large bundle options, this doesn't make sense for " large catalogs". It's not a product page so I cant push bundles to other platforms, so google shopping, amazon or ebay I cant sell the same " kit/bundle" Good idea, but not what consuming like us need by the reviews.

Super easy way for me to create bundles out of my existing inventory. I have none of the issues from the other reviews maybe because I do have on the product option to sell even if out of stock.

Buggy as hell. Basic coding issues that Shopify are not addressing. Why not Shopify? It's your app after all. Go elsewhere unless you enjoy frustration...
