Amazon by Codisto

May 9, 2023

For the most part the app is great and customer service is very responsive and helpful - recently though it seems that tracking numbers sometimes go through to Amazon and sometimes they don't so sometimes we have to manually input the tracking on seller central. Also I don't know why but the ship deadlines aren't coming through correctly anymore to Shopify. Not sure why its buggy recently.

pro: very helpful support team, easy to contact con: some errors occur with listing (I am not sure if they're from amazon or this app)

Oct. 18, 2022

I downloaded this app to upload my products to Amazon, and although it is not as simple to do as I expected, it is because Amazon has complicated requirements for my category. The app itself works well and the support is very good! Ediline and others I've talked to over the past few weeks are very helpful in figuring out the listing issue and will keep looking into it until they have solved the problem. The reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 is that I wish they had more documentation of what is required for what category as it does not automatically pull the correct fields in, nor does it tell you the options for what to enter in each field. You have to go through support several times to get it right, but again they are very helpful and you'll eventually get it!

We're still working on getting our products sync'd properly but the support team is pretty good and they're helping us work through some challenges. Thanks!

Great app.! Quick and easy setup from Shopify to Amazon. The codisto team was very helpful in resolving issues or clarifying questions. Would recommend.

Estoy implantando esta aplicación para sincronizar mi stock con Amazon. De momento bien, pero no tienen soporte telefónico en español.

A great app overall. Some features are a little more complicated but works great for what we need it for. Customer service team is also super responsive and accommodating! Definitely would recommend this app.

The setup was a little difficult but they have a great support team to help onboard you. I'd suggest they assign someone to onboard you initially.

I've had some issues trying to list products but the help team have been really assisting and we're on our way to finalising soon.

Adjusted Review... We were being charged for all Amazon FBA orders even though they did not have anything to do with Shopify and since we sell 95% on Amazon FBA vs FBM or eBay it was costing us hundreds of dollars! We could not reach them to help us resolve this but after leaving a review they got in touch with us and walked us how to disable FBA products (something that was not clear until we received training) and they credited the FBA orders that were being counted against the minimum order threshold our plan allows. So they stepped up and fixed the issue. The software works well so no complaints there. However you need to be very careful on how it is set up and suggest getting their help to prevent FBA orders from being counted if that is a concern. Also as of now there is no way to track how many orders you are getting that are counted against the minimum, so it is a bit of a guessing game on what plan you need, and we are waiting for this to be added in the next rollout.

Great Customer Service, fast, polite and friendly. The customer rep knew what I needed and sent me to the right page to get some answers.

I really liked the old app, it was really simple. There is a bit more complexity with this app that has created some issues in getting it setup, but I will say that the customer service has been top notch, and though it took a little time to get things right, it is now working fine. One issue that cost a star in my review was the fact that the FBA orders don't come across with customer names, and therefore can't be synced with Shopify QuickBooks app which has required me to have to use two apps. One for merchant fulfilled (the Codisto app) and one for FBA in order to get my accounting accurate.

5th Update - The app continues to work; However, I now have a new issue - and I've reached out via chat to try to find answers but that didn't help. Here's the issue: While I was linking products between my Shopify store and Amazon shop, I realized that some of the colors in the images looked alike - ie, the black and navy blue looked similar - and I became concerned that I mis-linked products (blue to black, etc.), so I wanted to go back and review the linked products. According to the person I chatted with for 20+ minutes, this is not possible. Once the products are linked, he wrote, there is NO WAY to go back and review. Please, please, please, Codisto, I am sure I am not the only one who needs to check. If I did mis-link anything, that means that every time an order is placed, the buyer will receive the wrong product. Please advise. 4th Update - I have now had this app on my shop for several weeks and am updating my rating to 4 stars. After a very rocky start, things now are working as expected. Meaning, it is working and there have been no new surprises or glitches. My sales are linking from Amazon to my Shopify store to my production providers seamlessly. I will add this - the Codisto support team has been great. They are quick, helpful, and they follow up. Please make it a point to reach out to them should you have any problems as they are very responsive. ....... 3rd Update - So, I just received a notice from Amazon that my perfect shipping rate is now at 18.18% - this means that in the past 10 days, my account went from having 0 late shipments to 18.18% late shipments. Every single one of these late shipments occurred in the past week because the Codisto app over-wrote my Amazon production time information and promised shipment (of print-on-demand products) within 1 day of ordering. I only noticed this morning that the app has been over-riding my Amazon account information and have been taking steps to fix the problems. Unfortunately, according to Amazon, my account is now "At risk of deactivation" because my late shipment rate is now over 4%. This is 100% due to this app and, while I received an email from Codisto after first lowering my rating back to 0 stars this morning, which told me how I can bulk update my production/shipping times, the damage was already done. As a note - I have been selling on Amazon for 10+ years and this is the only time my account has been at risk. If you get this app - which you have to now that Shopify has forced you to - PLEASE check, re-check, and then check again all your info after linking through this app. Your entire business can be at risk, as mine now is. -------- 2nd Update - Back to a 1 (0) stars. So this weekend I woke up to a bunch of new orders from Amazon through my Shopify shop via Codisto. I also woke up to a slew of Late Shipment warnings from Amazon - it turns out that the Codisto app has overwritten all my production times/shipment dates to 1 DAY. If you do any sort of print-on-demand, you know that this is impossible. I checked my listings on Amazon, and my original production dates are still there. I checked the same listings on Codisto, and the app has a fall back of 1-Day service. You have to go one-by-one to set the Codisto app to whatever you have in Amazon - rather then having the Codisto app simply reflect whatever you have in Amazon. Total garbage waste of time - remember, I have more than 500 products that are affected. Now I have to cancel orders with Amazon customers who are expecting 1-Day turnaround service/shipment, which will further affect my rating. ---------- UPDATE: I originally gave this app 1 (0) stars. It was unwieldy, time-consuming, etc. I am happy to report that Codisto has been very responsive to improving the app. It is still not perfect - for instance, when I try to link my Amazon products to those in my Shopify store, the app does not find/show all the available sizes/colors to link to. This, of course, is a problem. I feel, though, that Codisto is committed to fixing/improving its product. Because of their quick service and fixes, I am updating to 3 stars. I will be more than happy to update again once all my product variations can be found/linked. PS: for now I am leaving my original review below so you can see what the developers overcame in just two days. 0 stars. The original Amazon app worked perfectly for years. Now we are forced to use this one. I have 577 products to link with this app. The problems are: 1 - The app does not allow for sizes and color variations. So, if you have a shirt that has 20 colors and 7 sizes, you have to search one-by-one through your catalog to link it. That is 140 listings you have to search through to find the correct one. Since Codisto does not give you an image, you can't even go by that. You have to click on each listing, one by one, and then RE-ENTER the search because it does not even offer a drop-down menu. So, enter your search terms, choose the first suggestion. If that is wrong, re-enter your search terms, choose the second listing, if that is wrong... 140 times for just that one listing. 2- Part way through the linking process (just 10 products in), the app started telling me to link products I had already linked (it lost all my work). Support said I had not completed the process. I replied that I have 577 products to link and was in the middle of it when the app deleted all I had already done, and 3- The prior, perfectly fine app, was FREE.

Thanks for adding the sales tax option. Let's keep making this better. Still expensive for what it is but Shopify put merchants in a tight spot on this one.

Sept. 21, 2021

Transitioned from Shopify App, which was pure garbage compared to this. Price is still a little high, but it certainly offers a simplicity that the previous app did not have. Way easier to understand, and the 1 click Offer Activate button is a true hero. Probably saved me about 5 minutes per product. Just put in the UPC, price, and the normal details and click "Activate". Boom...its on Amazon 20 minutes later. Their live chat support has been flawless, and took the time to answer all my questions thoroughly. Honestly, this is probably the reason to get this over others. Big shoutout to Josh to helped me for an hour or so going through each major error Amazon was throwing at me. We came out the end of that chat battle hardened Amazon pro-integrators. 1 Recommendation, CAN YOU PLEASE rename the Channel to Amazon somehow in Analytics? Now when I compare year over year, nothing will match up because the previous app Channel was just called Amazon. A small gripe clearly.

Sept. 3, 2021

Overall good. Their help documentation to migrate from existing Shopify Amazon sales channel is helpful but the app is not designed well and still has lots that could be improved upon. If you're migrating from the old Shopify Amazon selling channel you'll probably find the many new options they provide confusing. Syncing products has been a pain due to the design of the backend. Hopefully they will redesign it to make it easier to use. I liked the old Shopify app where you could select the Amazon product (which showed a thumbnail as well as had the variant names written out clearly) and then select the corresponding Shopify product and link all your variations. The current set up with a long list of ASIN in a spreadsheet format isn't very user friendly. It's not clear what the product I'm linking to is as it is only identified by it's ASIN. On the plus side, support has been quick to respond to my emails and are currently working with me to try and fix it. Hopefully we'll get it working. Will update.

Aug. 18, 2021

I wanted to update my review for anyone who might have seen it. I had a very hard time linking our ASINs to this app and getting in touch with support, but in the last day, Luke from their company reached out and has been personally fixing the listings that didn't sync correctly which has been a big help in getting our FBM orders to pass into Shopify. I'm glad I was able to get some help directly from the app to make sure our ASINs worked the way we needed them to.
