TL;DR This app charges WAY more for WAY less functionality We have been using the BOLD Subscription app for over 9 years and I have been incredibly disappointed in the transition from v1 to this version of the app. The new version of the app is missing several key features that were included in v1: *No customer activity notification: in v1 we would get an email if a customer changed or canceled their subscription order, keeping our customer service team in the loop. *No confirmation to the customer if they change or cancel their order. There are email confirmations when a subscriber starts a new subscription or there is a payment issue, so I don't know why they didn't include options for editing or canceling a subscription. *In v1 customers could define their own subscription interval. Creating multiple variations to match the intervals that our customers are looking would create a very cumbersome list for the customer to have to sort through. *Flat Rate Shipping only for subscription order. We have subscription customers who use our local pick-up option, guess we won't be getting orders from them anymore! *Doesn't work with other BOLD apps. One of the main selling points for us almost a decade ago was that we could use the BOLD Subscriptions app with Custom Pricing and Upsells, but according to the BOLD Help Center the apps are no longer compatible. To add insult to injury our cost for BOLD Subscriptions is projected to 100x (yes, that is a one-hundred times increase!) over the cost we were paying for v1. I thought shrinkflation at the grocery store was bad, but this is ridiculous. We are currently looking at upgrading to Shopify Plus to manage our custom pricing and switching to the Shopify subscription app. I will say the front-line service team that I have interacted with has always been perfectly pleasant and are probably the best employees in the entire company.

Bold's Migration Team was a big help in getting us up to speed in our latest update. Brysen and Cody worked with our team to ensure we had everything working as intended for our subscription products without interruptions to our existing customers.

The migration process was very simple. The team stayed in communication and answered all of my questions. Appreciate the support and would recommend bold to other organizations.

Do not use this app! I have never left a bad review for any app or product in my life, but I feel compelled to save anyone from having to deal with all that we have dealt with in this app. Not only does it continue to have problems, but they have the WORST customer service that I have ever experienced. They do not have any access to a live agents, ever. They have very limited business hours so if you have a major issue, which we have multiple times, you can not get any assistance if it is outside of their M-F central time office hours. Being an app in the eccommerce space, they should realize that these business are 24-7 and should at least attempt to have expanded hours since issues arise over the weekend too. They have shown us multiple times that they do not care that their platform glitches cause a disturbance in your business. That it could cost you customers. They simply don't seem to care. They show no concern about how long it takes them to even answer the support ticket in a timely manner, let alone actually fix the issue in a timely manner. I am always patient when it comes to tech because I realize that stuff happens and errors occur and all of that, but I am telling you. I have had more awful experiences with this app, its service, and its lack of customer service than I have ever experienced and I am so very frustrated. I have resisted changing to a new subscription app because I was worried about migrating to something new, but I should have a long time ago because this app continues to be a nightmare. Please keep looking and save yourself the trouble of dealing with this app. I am certainly moving on!

The customer support team have made the Migration extremely easy for us. A big thank you to Krupa, Chase, Daniel P and Chaysen.

If I could give them a 0 I would. Things have worked fine for the last 4 years that I had been using V1. But the migration to V2 has been a disaster. Today is October 22 and since October 8, when their Tier 2 team got everything 'fixed', customers have been unable to order non-subscription products from my site. Today's rep told me " the action that needs to be taken must be done by our app developers and they are currently addressing critical and high-priority issues that have emerged in some of our other projects." I'd steer clear!

This app is a huge enabler for the e-commerce side of our business, and the updates over v1 make it significantly easier for customers to manage their own subscription changes. When we have had questions or integration items to address, the BOLD team has been responsive and thorough. Special shout out to Brysen on the customer support team--thank you for going the extra mile to thoroughly address our questions.
This made our day!! So glad to hear you're enjoying it 🙌

I forbindelse med en migration af subscribers fra Bold Subsciptions v1 til Bold Subscriptions with Shopify Payment har jeg fået fantastisk hjælp i denne uge af Cody i Customer Service. Cody holdt fokus på opgaven, holdt mig løbende godt informeret om processen og kom i mål med det.

Good customer service however wish they had a phone number. Too much back and forth with emails and things can be resolved quicker if you can speak with an agent on the phone. But the service we received via email was helpful just time consuming.

I wanted to provide feedback regarding the recent migration of my subscription. Unfortunately, the experience has been less than satisfactory. Since the migration, the shipping method and store pickup options haven’t been functioning properly, and this has caused significant inconvenience. I’ve always appreciated your service in the past, but this transition has been frustrating, and I cannot rate it positively in its current state. If there is anything that can be done to resolve these issues, I’d be happy to discuss further.

Subscriptions make up a large proportion of our income so we were nervous about having to move off V1 but the migration team, especially Cody, took care of everything and it went through without a hitch. We are now looking at how we can make use of the additional functionality to try and maximise our subscription income stream

Just got migrated with bold subscription, Chintak was absolutely awesome, so helpful, knew what he was doing going extra mile and all. Chintak is the reason you got a 5-star rating from me.
