SC Product Options

I love this app but there is a major problem and the reason I left a 3-star review instead of a 5-star review. When ever I add options to a product I have to go through this lengthy trial and error process to get it to show on the page. It includes changing the last 2 digits of the cache params as instructed by Bold (window.BOLD.common.cacheParams.options) and having to add and remove the product from the bold options page in the app. I have to do this 10-20 times before the options show on the live site. SOOOOO SICK OF IT. I love the app, it is unfortunate this problem has not been resolved.

The product options app is by far the best app on the market for this type of functionality. Very intuitive to use and easy to learn quickly. Very affordable and reliable app since most business rely heavily on its function. Separate from all of that, the best part of the app is the ongoing support and availability from the team. Brenden and Guri on chat support are basically my saviors as they have helped with immediate needs. They get very involved and helped implement and fix the options and conditions I could not figure out. This company is top notch and widely used. Support Team is awesome and quick to respond and escalates issues as needed. Thanks again team. Highly recommend!!!

Generally as advertised and the support was quite good. Certainly a useful app for many reasons...but unfortunately we can't give this a great review overall.

-The app costs money to install, which isn't the case with several of the alternatives.
-The app was more tedious and cumbersome to use than the app we ended up going with.
-More expensive per month than the app we ended up using, particularly if you need the "premium" features.
-Not as versatile at modifying prices as the app we ended up using.
-Charges extra for features that are included as standard with some other apps.
-Bold repeatedly asks people to write 5-star reviews, which gets a bit annoying.

We fiddled around with this app for a while and ultimately ended up going with Unlimited Product Options by OnlyGrowth.

Room Tonic uses BOLD Product Options for product variants on custom furniture pieces that we sell online. It is a very powerful app. As such, it is not a wizard-like app that will walk you through all of its capabilities. Apps like this require technical and customer service support teams as part of the subscription. Their support is absolutely top notch.

We worked with one support engineer, Nirav C. who was absolutely spectacular. He was quick to respond. When we were anxious about setbacks and delivery timelines, Nirav got his team to work over the weekend to help us through a tight deliverable. The fixes and work done was clean and high quality.

Nirav went above and beyond for us. Thank you, Nirav! You helped us out of a sticky situation that surfaced as a result of our own mistakes and poor planning. We very much appreciate your patience and understanding with us; and moreover, your willingness to help us out of a bad situation that we created for ourselves. Thank you again, Nirav and we thank BOLD Support Team also.

Have been using the app for a few months. Don't expect the inventory tracking to work. It has been nothing but issues for us regarding inventory tracking. Multiple hours wasted and calls later they basically just said tough luck. They told us to go complain to our other third party apps to convince them to integrate with bold apps, great advice. Also, it doesn't integrate with shipstation or stitch labs so definitely don't use it if you have either of those. Lastly, less important but still notable is that is causes some small changes to the visual appearance of the site and often will look sloppy with the way the options appear on website and in confirmation emails to customers. I would save your money and get a more legit options feature coded into your site. It will take more money up front but in the end this isn't a long term solution if you are looking to make serious money online. If you are running a fairly simple site it could work but eventually the problems are all magnified and you will have to get something better anyway so may as well not waste the monthly payments and hours getting it set up

Can't apply options modularly; have to make a whole new set for an item if it has just one tiny difference. If you have a large catalogue with variations expect to be reinventing the wheel over... and over... and over. Changes made in app can take 30 minutes to appear on the site, or not appear ever and require developer intervention (this is a showstopping problem! Especially combined with...) Conditional logic stops working on random widgets of random products and need to be caught, unset/reset in app, typically when a customer takes the time to notify us that something isn't working right. Setting up conditional logic requires visiting two separate places in the app, which is slow and tedious. Ridiculous design choice really. Why two stars? We came from Infinite options, and this was a huge step up from that. We used this and dealt with its shortcomings for over a year. For those weighing options, give W3 Product Options a shot. The staff replied to us within minutes while they were open, with a well thought-out response, and a comprehensive fix from the get-go. Since getting everything situated just right we've had absolutely zero snags that weren't us setting something wrong (redoing the logic on our site was a >24 hour effort, we were exhausted). Their backend is better designed, widgets more functional, whole system works faster. They allow options to be assigned to products a la carte, which has netted us insane gains on upsell efforts, enough to pay for their monthly subscription ,multiple times over, daily.

This app is so frustrating. We've had nothing but issues. I would not recommend this.

Not Impressed. When you are adding options to multiple products. not all products you select get the options

Great product assisting us to have product options on our web page. Mona and the tram from support are always friendly and happy to help.

this the app caused an unreasonable speed problems on my website so had to uninstall. Still trying to uninstall js that came with the app but no luck yet.
