Tadpole review for SC Product Options

March 26, 2014

This app is amazing. If you don't believe me check out this product on my site: http://www.shoptadpole.com/products/monte-design-joya-rocker It has 608 variants that Product Options handles with ease. It has 3 pulldowns, and within each pulldown there are price variations. It handles the calculations perfectly while letting the customer know in real time what the additional costs are going to be. We have 7 or 8 such complex products on our site, including this one with more than 2,700 variants http://www.shoptadpole.com/products/monte-design-luca-glider and Product Options has dealt with them all. One thing to keep in mind: Product Options doesn't create the same kind of variant IDs as ones created natively in Shopify, so if you use any apps that call on variant IDs (like Gift Reggie, for example) they don't know how to handle the different selections and will only recognize the default variant. The developer at Gift Reggie is working on a solution, and I'm sure there are solutions for other such apps, but just be aware that you will probably need to involve a good developer to handle those situations. Still, I can't say enough about this app. Don't let Shopify's 100 variant limit scare you, you can pretty much do whatever you want with Product Options.
