I would seriously warn people from using this app. The integration has never worked properly, and I am currently 2 months into a non-sync issue and Bold go dark for weeks with no resolution. I would suggest from my experience that this is reason enough to select another package from Xero. However good Xero is, this integration is reason enough to select something else. And worse than that once your embedded you are stuck with exhorbitent fees for a product that doesnt work... DO YOUR RESEARCH AND READ THE REVIEWS BEFORE YOU GO THIS WAY. I deeply regret it

This app previously worked seamlessly. As of last week they have started adding a customer number which in turn adds around 2 minutes more work to every transaction - a massive setback. We now need to edit the customer name as the invoice will look very unprofessional with (Shopify Customer 123456789). Not sure what the devs were thinking when they made this change? In addition, the integration is now quite buggy - some transactions don't come across in spite of accurate part numbers and inventory etc. Super annoying as this was a great product not so long ago

This application has never worked as advertised from the beginning and was one of the worst applications on shopify to date. Not only does the application emulate failure, but the support team also represent the notion of disappointment. By using this app, our company found that bold created more work for us, than it did making things easy. On top of that, when we queried the support staff about some major issues, they mostly brushed over the main points and simply helped us out with small minor complaints rather than addressing the bigger issue. All in all this experience was very poor and we have no intentions of going back to bold, or of recommending this application to anyone else, as it is not fit for purpose. Unfortunately ratings systems, don't allow you to rate a 0/5, but we are going to do this right here and say, we rate this application a 0/5.

DO NOT PAY FOR THIS APP. What kind of business stops a service doesn't tell you and then expects you to pay with no warning. AVOID BOLD.

Hi there. We're sorry you were experiencing technical issues, and would be happy to give you a call if you'd like. In the meantime, we have reached out via email to discuss this. Hope to hear from you!

Tolerated the many glitches, missing data, etc, etc, etc. only because the app was free. Shopify is great, Xero is great, this app not so much. Definitely not worth the fees they are asking for. We'll be looking around.

Absolutely shocking! I don’t understand the new pricing structure for such a simple function. It’s actually embarrassing that Xero and Shopify would be doing this! Buggy app, not supporting inventory, missing orders! What’s going on with this propel!

The fee they want to charge is shocking. I already pay Xero for my accounting. To then pay an app to transfer the info to Xero on top of the fees I already pay is a joke. I'll be deleting this app pretty much immediately. This is a cash grab if I ever saw one.

It works. Most of the time, gets stuck occasionally and needs to be reconnected. Annoying when you don't notice for a few days.

However the new pricing plan is totally unjustified for the functionality it provides.

Try $5 / month?

Updated my review whilst we wait to see if new features / reliability is forthcoming after the change to the pricing plans.

Seems to work fairly well for normal simple orders, but it only works occasionally for refunds. We process refunds regularly (which isn't unusual for an online business) so I'm constantly having to manually find and fix these errors. Support said there was no current plan to fix this....

I put up with this when it was a free app, but there's no way this is worth paying any money for.

Will be deleting bold app after this surprise fee introduction. I don't understand why it makes sense to pay more than the Shopify OR Xero apps themselves simply to transfer data from one to the other. I would expect Bold will lose a lot of customers with this move.

UPDATE - I have talked to the Bold team, and they have no explanation for the pricing structure they are introducing. This is the biggest price gouge I've ever experienced as a Shopify customer. The pricing structures are based on number of orders exported, so it is very clearly an effort to take advantage of companies with more revenue. The pricing structure is not related to the service provided at all. This is a very bad business practice.

I will still be deleting this app as soon as I find a workaround. I notice their review rating has plummeted since the new pricing was introduced. I'm not surprised.
