We've been using Collection Manager for a few months now and it's been awesome. We were even able to work directly with the developers to implement a new feature in a very short time-frame! The team is super responsive, willing to work with us, and ultimately they have built a great app that saves us a ton of time! Highly recommend!

Hello! 你好! Collection Manager was actually updated to support the SameSite cookie update when the change was originally announced. Can you please create a ticket here so we can help you with a solution? If you can tell us which browser and operating system you're using, we should be able to help: https://innovanet.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new In the meantime, you can also try upgrading to the latest version of your operating system and browser to make sure it works with the update. 请在此处创建支持请求,以便我们提供帮助。 https://innovanet.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new UPDATE: We have released a small update which should help. Can you please try again? 更新: 我们发布了一个小更新,应该会有所帮助。你能再试一次吗? Update: We've been investigating the SameSite cookie issue, and it appears to be a problem with Safari on Mac computers. We highly recommend switching to Chrome if possible, since it implements the SameSite cookie security, differently.

Out of the box the app doesn't duplicate a collection or the products within it - it simply creates a new collection and adds the original product to that collection. This can easily be achieved using the inbuilt Shopify features. The app is misleading in this respect.
Hello and thanks for taking the time to write this review. We always appreciate the honest feedback :) You mentioned that the app does not duplicate collections but in fact, the duplication of collections while maintaining the sort order is one of the primary features of the app. The duplication of products within those collections is an available feature, but not something we enable by default because it requires some setup before use. If we did not do this, users could have undesirable results. Having said that, we would like to apologize if you felt mislead by the app description as this was certainly not the intention. The feature you mentioned is actually available within the app, but we don't list it publicly since it often requires special setup with a given shop. We would be more than happy to assist you with the setup for this. However, we do agree that this should be stated more clearly so we have corrected this by updating our app description, since we certainly did not intend to be misleading. Our goal is always to be open and helpful to all of our app users. There's also the free trial for anyone to determine if Collection Manager is a good fit for their shop. Regarding your comment about duplication being easily achievable through the inbuilt features; we would disagree with that. Shopify does not currently have a mechanism to duplicate a Custom or Smart collection while maintaining the sort order of the manually arranged source collection. This is one of the main benefits of Collection Manager along with the ability to export and import sort orders as well, both of which cannot be done using the inbuilt Shopify tools. There are many other cross-shop sorting and syncing features as well, but again, we don't list them all because these are advanced features that require either custom setup or guidance and they don't always work well with every shop since every shop is a little different. Using the inbuilt Shopify admin console, you can definitely duplicate a Smart collection by copying the rules, but this would be a manual process, and again, the sort order won't match if you've manually sorted the source collection. The ability to duplicate Custom and Smart collections while maintaining the manually sorted product order of the source, is really one of the main functions of the app (along with many others of course). The duplication of products at the same time is possible, but wasn't the main focus of the feature, so we do apologize again if you felt that was misleading. As I mentioned above, and in our support response, we would love to have you back, so please do let us know if there's any way we can assist you moving forward! All the best ;)

We are a large Plus Store with multi regional store locations under our brand. We use this app to help us save countless hours with visual merchandising and reordering our collections. As a fashion brand we have 100's of products and we are constantly looking for ways to increase our efficiency in how we handle them. The team is amazing, I have jumped on a Skype call with them and they are super high touch. And we even have given them some idea on feature requests which they have actioned. It is great to work with a partner like this! Couldn't recommend them more highly! Warmest Alex
Thanks so much for the positive feedback and kind words! We really enjoy working closely with partners such as yourselves. Always a pleasure to be sure! We're truly pleased to be able to contribute to the efficiency and success of our users, so it's awesome to hear that the app is helping you get back a bit more time in your day. All the best!

Collection Manager is an incredible timesaver! With our large catalog we were able to do in minutes what would have otherwise taken weeks. Plus, customer service is incredibly responsive, kind, and helpful. We highly recommend Collection Manager!
Thanks very much for the great review! We're always happy to hear that the app is helping our users get more done, in less time! We're certainly excited to be a part of our partners' success as we both move forward, so it's a pleasure to hear that we're achieving those goals. We have many new features planned to help improve our partners' productivity, so stay tuned for more to come :)

This app is extremely useful for me. It's convenient for sorting products and save my time because we have thousands of products in many collections. We always use the numeric sort function. Export the file, sort the products in Excel then import the file again. I just spent about 15mins to finish the job. Thank you for helping me improve my efficiency.
Hello and thanks for taking the time to write about your experience with the app! We're very pleased to hear that it's improving your efficiency and making life a little easier. Please feel free to reach out any time through our Feature Request system if there's anything you feel would make it even more useful to you :) We're also pleased to say that the recent upgrades to the app will lay the groundwork for many new features and improvements to come!

Simply put, this app saves you time! If you manage a lot of collections, this app is for you. In addition to the simple to use UI makes utilizing the app a breeze. When you have a question, their customer support team is kind, caring, and incredibly responsive. Human beings that actually listen and care about your business!

We sell a lot of products so this app is an absolute godsend. You can easily rearrange products on collection pages - moving products individually or in bulk. Also, you can remove items from collection too. For example we have a 'What's New' collection which is constantly being added to as new products come in - the ability to remove older items in bulk from this collection (something that would take so much time within shopify) is very helpful (you have to switch this function on - a safety feature so that you can't remove items by mistake). We use this app each time we add new products to reorganise our collection pages. If you sell a lots of products, you'll find this app very helpful. Highly recommended. When we needed support, that was fantastic too.

The app its great and a much better way to merchandise collections, but it lags horribly if your collection has more than 500 items. (This issue has been corrected on their latest update, effectively making, in my opinion, the best collection management app in Shopify) Another issue that is quite annoying, specially with large collections, is the random crashes, which when it happens, makes me start from the last save. Doesn't often happen though. (This issue hasn't happened either since the update, but I will re-update if I happen to encounter it again) UPDATE: Overall, I highly recommend this app. Our biggest and most popular collections have between 10 and 20 pages worth of merchandise, and with this app, I spend an hour (at most) re-merchandising a collection if needed.
Hello and thanks very much for taking the time to write this review. We always appreciate the feedback as it helps us focus on areas for improvement. We do recognize the performance issue with Full Screen sorting for larger shops and I'm happy to say that we're actually actively working on this at the moment. In the meantime, some of our larger shops have switched to using the Numeric Sort feature which allows you to export the sort order for a collection, sort offline in Excel, then re-upload. This is usually a better option for larger shops due to certain browser limitations when sorting large numbers of products in the Full Screen sort. As for the glitches, they're usually caused by temporary connection issues and should be fairly rare but some of the upcoming improvements should address this. Having said that, if you're having a specific issue or seeing a pattern, please feel free to create a support ticket and we'll be sure to help out where we can! Thanks again for the review! Best of luck with your shop :) UPDATE: Thanks so much for the review update! We truly appreciate the constant feedback as it really does help us to keep improving the app. Thanks again and best of luck with your shop as we all move forward! :)

Limited functionality. We wanted to use this app to create automatic collections based on product tag's (which Shopify doesn't support) but unfortunately, this app doesn't support that either.
Hello and thanks for taking the time to leave this review. We're sorry to hear that the app doesn't have a particular feature you were looking for. We wanted to mention that we often receive feature requests and we will always try to work with our users to implement them wherever possible (there's even an option with the app to submit them). Having said that, we'll take this one back to the team to gauge the feasibility and if it's something we're able to do, we can certainly let you know when it becomes available. Thanks for giving Collection Manager a try!

Amazing app, prob the only one on here that allows you to freely move the order of items around visually. Many times we have asked for developments and these have been done. Great team !!

I cant believe the time I wasted arranging my collections. this is very brilliant, and super easy to use either by drag or by numbering the product according to its location in the collection. thank you very much. you made my day

We like to manually sort our collections. Makes our lives so much easier :) Totally worth the money

Love this app. I use regularly for site fresh. Favorite features are the ability to view or not view inventory so I can push fully stocked styles to the top. And the ability to toggle between a numbered list and tile view. I use the numbered first to shift new product to the top and then the grid to make it pretty. Super helpful, saves me 2+ hours a week and site looks way better. (ps. have never experienced a crash. use app weekly)

This app is great for managing large quantities of products. I use it several times a week and it has made the task of moving and reordering products manually a piece of cake. Set up was extremely simple and support is top notch. Very small learning curve. Highly recommended if, like us, you need to easily manipulate the product positioning of your collection pages and you're finding the Shopify interface too much of a hassle. 2/22/21 - this is an update on my previous review. We're still using Collection Manager successfully. It's dependable and has made things much easier. I want to comment that their support is fantastic. I requested to a feature to have a sort of the collection by out-of-stock, and they did it. Yes, it took a while, but they incorporated it into the product. It's a great feature for us and we appreciate the Collection Manager's team ability to listen and respond. This is a good company to do business with.

The duplicate collection feature does not copy across the collection description or any metafields.
Hello! You're absolutely right; the "Duplicate Collection" feature did have a bug which prevented the copying of the collection description which we've recently addressed. Thanks very much for letting us know! We appreciate your feedback as we're always looking for ways to improve the app. Please use the "Feature Request" button to share any additional thoughts. Thanks for using Collection Manager and Happy Sorting!

We have over a thousand collections that needed to be sort manually by SKU. Unfortunately, sorting by SKU is not natively supported by Shopify so we had to resort to manually sorting our collections. By using this app and its Excel download/upload feature, we were able to cut our manual sort workflow by almost 5 minutes per collection

This app is a lifesaver. Makes ordering the collections so much faster and easier, and is even fun to use. Don't know what I'd do without it.

This App is amazing! We have hundreds of products per collection and only show a limited number at a time and this app saves us sooooo much time dragging and dropping, moving items to the beginning with one click, or moving to the end. This is a must have. Love it! So glad we found this app. See it on our store here: www.rareform.com - no joke, is a lifesaver for us.
