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.

Mostly a great app to help streamline inventory management. My main critique is that you can't can sell bundle products created through this app at POS locations. As this app is designed primarily to help streamline inventory management, it doesn't make sense that you can't add the POS sales channel to bundle products - hence my 2 star rating... When Shopify add this feature I'll amend my review.

I have been using this app for about 4 months and only recently was there a sudden glitch. I use the app to bundle single items together as an option for a pair as I track the item's single inventory. At an unknown time, the bundled items were showing "sold out" when the single items quantity was positive. Over a 48 hour period and with 2 different chat support members, I was able to resolve the issue by manually changing the quantity on the affected bundled items, refreshing, then changing the quantity back to the accurate number. These were the steps given to me through the app development team to resolve the issue. The first chat support advisor came back to me via email with a solution that wasn't applicable to the problem, so didn't fully understand or thoroughly examine. The second chat support advisor expressed that "because it is a free app" it isn't as stable as paid apps. I was then explained the difference between paying for the platform vs paying for an app. I installed this app on the recommendation of yet another Shopify support member several months ago and because it is developed by Shopify, it would be the best option for my needs. I would like to have more clarity on when these issue might arise - when specifically it happened in my case so I can investigate further and if it is in fact an unstable app not suitable to use at this time. I am writing this review so others can examine before installing and spending the valuable time to set it up.

It's free, so it's hard to complain. But it is very limited. The digital downloads do not deliver, and Shopify themselves recommended a different bundle app to me if I wanted the downloads attached. I'm trying a work around by making the downloads their products and then adding them to the bundle since the download has to be attached to an item and not a bundle. It's also one bundle and not something the customer can pick and choose from items. So if you are looking for a bundle, this is not the one for you. It really helps us with inventory management vs when we tried to physically manage bundles on our end. ***updated - the workaround for the digital items worked in theory, but now the free digital items show as if the customer is charged for them, creating customer service issues. You get what you pay for, and the service by Shopify for this app might as well be nonexistent. Don't waste your time here find something good that actually works like it should.

Works for us. I saw a lot of mixed reviews. We had to learn more about how stock keeping was supposed to work before realizing how to structure bundles. We also realized that our bundles weren't build properly in Magento 2 and they needed to be rebuild in Shopify Bundles. Once we figured it out these work better than ever. We were able to accomplish all of our goals with this app. Only limits we found were with integrations into various apps, some were supported some were not, we found that the value of the bundles being build properly for inventory purposes had more value than the integrations. We were able to find work arounds and meet all of our goals. I would recommend experimenting with this and really toying with all the configurations before abandoning it.

Very useful feature and glad it is offered for free as part of the price of paying for Shopify subscription.

This pretty much does everything I need it to do - and much better than the paid apps. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles that the others do, like price adjustments for buying multiples, but I think this is a great option for simple kits.

Its great, but I'm just struggling with the product titles not showing up by each product size so people cant tell what size is for what's what - when i contacted support they said its a bug but i doubt its still a bug by now.

Great app! Only reason I am not giving 5 stars is because it is missing an option to add a "compare at" price. Since the bundle is usually at a discounted price, I feel it is a feature it should have. Aside from that, it is a very good app.

Great start for a basic app that was much needed. Helps me create comic bundles quickly. 2 suggestions, First, I would really like the ability to turn off the ability to sell individual parts of the bundle. And second, it would be nice for images from each bundled item to automatically be added to the bundle itself.

The user experience is simple and intuitive, making it very convenient for merchants who want to bundle products. Unfortunately, the inability to sell products on Facebook, Google, or even through POS channels will significantly impact business. You can't run popular Facebook dynamic ads or allow customers to purchase during in-person checkout. I sincerely appreciate Shopify for launching this app, but I hope it can be improved further.

It's frustrating that the app keeps displaying my bundles as out of stock when they're clearly not. It seems to be a recurring glitch, and the workaround only offers a temporary fix, requiring about 20 minutes of manual adjustment each time. Constantly monitoring and fixing this issue is eating into valuable time and potentially costing me sales. Unless this glitch is resolved soon, I'll have no choice but to switch to a different app. It's imperative to address this promptly as it's directly impacting my business's revenue and customer experience.

Malfunctions and Shopify does nothing about it. I have a bundle of three products and the bundle will randomly update to only two products without warning. Several bundles were sold to international customers who paid for three and only recommended two because of this malfunction. I was out hundreds of dollars in shipping alone to rectify this. Shopify has done nothing.

It is almost perfect, we just need the ability to stack more and more products and varients, we sell swimwear and it would be great to offer more style tops and bottoms on these bundle to allow girls to pick multiple options for their orders as a set.

Bundles app is not yet available on all sales channels, such as Facebook and Instagram, which means you can't tag bundled products on social. So pretty useless, really. I'm sorry to say.

This app excels for online sales channels but is unfortunately lacking for POS integration with Shopify. Here are the features we'd love to see: 1. Bundles on POS 2. Stackable Discounts 3. Customer View App for iOS While I've noticed generic responses in the past, providing a timeframe for these updates would be greatly appreciated instead of a generic 'so stay tuned' message.

No cumple la función más importante. Cuando actualizo los precios individuales no actualiza el precio del bundle.

Ich finde die App ganz gut. Mir fehlt es ein wenig die Bundles ohne ein eigenes Produkt zu erstellen. Ich würde gerne ein Bundle aus 2 Produkten machen und wenn beide gleichzeitig in den Einkaufswagen getan werden, dann sollen beide einen Discount bekommen.

Esta bien la app, puede mejorar al permitir agregar paquetes en un pedido preliminar. Tambien seria bueno, poder colocar los paquetes con free shipping

Wäre super, wenn Ihr noch mehr Optionen freigeben könnt. Wieso man nur 3 machen kann ist unerklärlich...
