What Merchants Think

Overall, merchants have a mixed opinion about "SKUGen." Many users praise the app for its ease of use, reliability, and the high-quality support provided by Bogdan and the customer service team. They find the app essential for their operations, especially for generating SKUs and printing labels. However, some customers have experienced significant challenges, particularly with billing issues and customer service responsiveness. These conflicts have led to frustrations and concerns about the app's transparency and overall functionality.

Key Strengths

  • User-friendly interface and intuitive design
  • Effective SKU and label generation features
  • Highly customizable options to meet specific business needs
  • Competitive pricing with valuable advanced features
  • Detailed documentation and instruction clarity
  • Responsive and professional customer support

Common Concerns

  • Billing discrepancies and charges on free plans
  • Issues with transparency in plan and billing changes
  • Occasional poor customer service experiences and delayed responses
  • Subpar and non-intuitive barcode generation
  • Concerns over app's functionality being less than competitors

Final Thoughts

SKUGen delivers a robust solution for SKU and label management, earning high marks for its user-friendly interface and reliable support for many users. However, it is undercut by consistent billing concerns and dissatisfaction with customer service for some merchants. While it serves as a critical tool for many businesses, prospective users should be cautious of possible billing and communication issues. As such, SKUGen is effective but may require attentiveness to service details to ensure a smooth experience.

Bogden has been super helpful in answering all of my questions. He has worded the communication in a way that makes setup a breeze! In his communications he provided screenshots and itemized instructions to make the process easy to digest. I pay for the Premium account because I am utilizing the advanced SKU automation features. It also has a built in label template and label printer so I was able to consolidate my apps into one SKU & Print app. It is well worth the price. I highly recommend this app.

Our experience with SKUGEN was absolutely horrendous. The so-called “customer service” from Bogdan was nothing short of dismissive and condescending. He repeatedly demanded screenshots of the same billing information—data they could clearly access themselves. Despite being on their “free” plan, we were charged $1.99 monthly, which is outrageous. Instead of addressing the issue, they bumped us into their “automatic SKU generation” plan without our consent—something Shopify offers for free, by the way. We had unknowingly paid for this app for two years, and when we questioned their shady practices, they refused to refund us all of the months that we were charged for a free plan. It took escalating the issue to Shopify and other governing bodies to even begin addressing the problem. As if that wasn’t bad enough, the app itself is clunky, confusing, and offers the bare minimum in functionality. Their billing is a complete mess, which seems intentional to trap users. There are far better apps out there that provide similar services without this level of frustration and unethical behavior. Save yourself the headache—SKUGEN is not worth your time or money. RESPONSE TO SKUGEN'S COMMENT: It’s deeply frustrating to see SKUGEN continuing to deflect accountability and dismiss valid concerns. For clarity: I was refunded for 3 months, but I was charged for over a year on what was supposed to be a free plan. Despite sending all the requested information multiple times, the response I received has been nothing but gaslighting and attempts to shift blame. You claim that plan changes require explicit user consent, yet I was charged for a downgrade I didn’t approve and then all the sudden moved to a paid tier without any transparency or notification. Unlike other apps on Shopify that clearly communicate pricing changes well in advance, SKUGEN failed to provide any such notice. The lack of transparency and unwillingness to take responsibility speaks volumes about the company’s practices. Let me reiterate: this isn’t about the money—it’s about honesty and integrity. Users deserve to know what they’re paying for and to have issues resolved without being misled or stonewalled. Shopify is now investigating the situation, and I encourage others who have had similar experiences to do the same. Additionally, the app itself leaves much to be desired. It’s unintuitive, confusing, and offers subpar functionality compared to its competitors. Customer service is just as lacking, with limited availability and dismissive responses, especially for users in time zones like PST (which is only around midnight). Other apps in the Shopify ecosystem provide better features, superior support, and transparency in billing practices—SKUGEN is simply not worth your time or energy. If you value straightforward tools and ethical customer service, I urge you to look elsewhere. There are far better options available that won’t leave you feeling cheated or ignored.

This app is one of the most important apps we are using. The way we operate would not work without this app. We use it for auto generating SKU's (we have more than 25.000 SKU's) and we use it for printing labels on product that are missing labels. The app is VERY stable and we have used in many years. The support is excellent as well. We have only needed support a few times and they have solved it extremely fast! 5 of 5 stars without a doubt!

We have been using this app for several months now - it's really helpful and good options to customise to how you need things set up for your specific store. We have just had a particular need that the app did not provide but they said they could add an extra feature for us. It was done in the timescales they promised. All working as it should. Great support, thank you!

This is a great app! It solved all our SKU & barcode generation extremely fast and easy. We were able to use it to customize for the printing labels formats we needed. It is very intuitive to use and has a lot of customization that assures compatibility with any type of printer and paper format. Also, the documentation is detailed and very clear. Very good and professional customer support, with fast reaction, reliable for long term usage. Highly recommended!
