Google & YouTube

The instructions are often times easy to follow and google representatives are great with support for Google Ads. The only issue for small shopify stores is google does not have automation for the reviews that are featured from customers on the shopify store they should automatically migrate to the google shopping page versus trying to get customers to set-up reviews direct on the google site.

The newest update of this app has caused a lot of products for our business.

We used to be able to easily filter before bulk editing products - specifically Google metafields (color, size, age group, and gender) for apparel. We could filter by vendor or active/draft or sort by created and products with issues were an entire category that we could edit separately.

However, since the past updates - we can now only edit all of our products at once (which we have over 10,000 so it is impossible to work with anymore.)

Used this app for years then woke up one morning to find multiple errors on my merchant centre. For some reason overnight all my products changed from in stock to 'blank' - only solution was to manually update everything to in stock on merchant centre - not an easy task on over 50k products - all are in stock on shopify.

Now my product description on MC is not showing my Shopify SEO Product description, its showing my product description when its set to use SEO title/description only.

Major issue is this over CSS capacity, again happened over night.

Why fix something that isnt broken!? This has nearly bankrupt my business ive gone from too many sales to nothing. I'll be putting all of my google ads on hold until this is all resolved. Read other reviews and avoid this 'sales channel' until they actually fix all of these issues.

This app has been super dissappointing. It should not be offered to shopify store owners without proper guidance and control. It is being offered as if everything will go smoothly and as if shopify has done its verification process and there are no issues. It does not allow you to manually choose your products but just automatically syncs the products into merchant account at the beginning. The app should provide potential issues you may have before syncing your products in google and being hit with misrepresentation, policy violation, or any other issue. It should give you an option of whether you want to sync your products to free listing only or both free listing or google ads. It should allow owners to exclude products certain channels in shopify itself since it is easier to filter and bulk edit in shopify than in Google & You tube. It should also provide a checklist or warning of potential issues of why your store will be disapproved by google. Any live help should be offered immediately to relief shopify owners that unknownily fall into this situation.

It is so disappointing to see a brand like Google coming up with this kind of an app. It is not for shopify store owners at all. Everything is extremely complicated and creates a headache. I have no idea what am I doing wrong and google support is robotic. They keep pointing us to articles after articles to read. This has become such a big headache. Not user friendly, not helpful, definitely not DIY. I have two stores and as soon as I connect the other store my current store becomes unapproved. I connect my other store to a new account, it says you already have an account and cannot open a new one. I just gave up after 3 months of wasting tuime and effort. Horrible.
