Great app, one of our favs and something we have been using for years now! Much better way to manage costings for our business vs the standard shopify field.

Simply Cost is amazing. It has built-in "catches" and helpful tips that have enabled us to utilize so many of its wonderful features that I do not have time to take tutorials for. I am a small business and a one-person show so the tips help me see SC's capabilities. I inherited a bad system from previous manager and Shopify and Simply Cost have helped us find simple solutions to complex problems and with this dynamic duo, I have been able to get all inventory discrepancies lower and lower every year for the last 5 years. Simply Cost is our go-to for monthly inventory reports and for tracking profits as well as looking at sales data for improving ordering process, etc. And lastly, but of great importance, the customer service I have received from Simply Cost (talking to you too, Sam!!!) has been beyond stellar! In one inquiry, they resolved an issue of a "ghost in the machine" that I had been dealing with for 4 years that Shopify help had been unable to resolve and Sam at Simply Cost was able to fix from their end. Professional, responsive, and gave me a detailed explanation of how the system works on their end so I could easily understand and know that it was not something I was doing. Amazing!! Highly recommend Simply Cost without hesitation!
Thank you very much for your in depth review and your support all these years!

We have been using SimplyCost ‑ Profit Tracking for a number of years. We find it especially useful when we're doing our end of year inventory.
Thank you very much for your review! I am glad that you find it useful.

We have been using Simply Cost for 6 years now and still use it monthly for extensive reports that aren’t as accessible or comprehensive via Shopify. 10/10 recommend.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We wouldn’t be here without the support of customers like you. If you ever have any advise or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Gut, übersichtlich, einfache anwendung. Passt alles und hat alles was man braucht. Für 5 Euro die beste App meiner Meinung nach

We use this app to track profitability on the days we send email promotions with a discounted product. Since in this app we can see not only sales, but actual profit on that day, it helps us compare our various promotions to see which ones are the most profitable (rather than just bring the most overall revenue). The app works great, and when I recently had an issue with some reporting getting messed up (not SimplyCost's fault, but it was affecting the reports there) they fixed it for me immediately. Highly recommended.

You guys really did an excellent job on this App. It's clear on where your problems are in my business. Analyzing expenses is so easy and thorough...makes "what-ifs" more logical, which makes my decision making much easier. Thanks!

Seems pretty good but no customer service available what so ever, so I'm not able to get any support for the questions I have.
Hi there, I am so sorry for the experience you had with our support. We always make sure we reply merchants support requests within 24 hours. In your particular case, I don't seems to have any record of support request originated from your store, therefore I am not able to provide any assistant. You can always contact us at [email protected]. I hope you give us another chance.

The app is the best solution I found out there, it takes the Ad costs from Facebook! The integration of Google Ads and the more individual entering for fulfillment costs like pick per product would be nice! I will be sticking with this app, good job!

Excellent app! It's my "go to" dashboard and I use it multiple times daily. Let's me know how my business is REALLY doing. Once upon a time I gauged my business through Total Sales on Shopify Dashboard, then I got smarter and looked at Net Sales, and now I've even smarter and use SimplyCost to look at what really matters - Profit. It's a "must have" app!

Great app! Before using SimplyCost, I was lost trying to manually track COGS using multiple sheets and was in the dark with final net profits. This changed all of that. Big up

I like the app just wish there was an option to get Google Ads charges as you do for FB. The rest of the feature are ok.
Hi there, that's something we are working on. Will definitely keep you updated when it is ready :)

Hi, We love your app but don't need it. Where can we cancel our subscription? I can't find it anywhere and also any email that I could write to you. Thanks
Hi there, to cancel all you need to do is delete the app from the Apps section in your Shopify Admin. If you have problem doing so, you can email to [email protected].

Great app. I began using this app 2 years ago to track COGS. I continue to use this app because from an accounting perspective simplycost delivers more accurate/ user-friendly reports than shopify's reports. It also offers powerful yet simple business decision tools such as vendor profitability reports, product type profitability reports, and inventory snapshots. I also use the export sales orders feature monthly which provides detail on all sales. Overall, it's a must have app at this price that I'd highly recommend. ~ cutieschildrensboutique.com

Pretty simple but powerful. Does exactly what advertised - helps to track your costs and profits. There is even a bit simplified way to track overhead. Anyway, good up for a great price.

Very useful app even after Shopify's addition of adding a cost field built in the platform recently. SimplyCost simply works. The two times I had a question about the app I received a prompt response. Great app and great support! Thank you!

Great app, simple to use and enables you to see important financial information easily. Reasonable price.

I love that I can see my profit on every order or run reports to see my monthly profits and costs. I have found it super easy to use. It would be great if it could sinc with shopify now for the cost price so I don't have to go to 2 different places to enter it but otherwise I love this app.
Thank you for your review! You can setup SimplyCost to use Shopify's cost price in the app's Settings page :). If you have problem setting that up, just drop me a email at [email protected]

Could be better - doesn't seem to switch between different shopify sites using this app. which is a problematic if you are running a couple of sites and using Simply Cost. There's no login / log out function with in the app. I hope this can be resolved.
Hi there, thanks for your feedback. Store switching is in the development road map. I will definitely let you know once it is available. At the moment, I will email you a couple of workaround that you can use the app if you have multiple store :)

Great app and awesome support! We needed Inventory cost on hand and it's perfect for that. One thing that's missing is Cost of inventory by product type. It is doable through Export and filtering in Excel, but it takes too much time. As per the app developer this feature will be available in a couple of months, so fingers crossed! The Reports are great and very helpful, it gives you a pretty good picture of your profits, COGS, margins, etc. One thing to be aware of - the "Online orders profit report" or what it's called doesn't use correct cost of items for orders prior to installing this app (our product costs were already entered in Shopify prior to installing this app so I could tell the numbers were wrong). Seems like this issue goes away for new orders after the install though. To ensure that we will always have correct profit reporting for any period of time, I went back to our past orders and manually corrected the cost of items. I'm still giving 5 stars because this app is very handy for your basic needs and you can't beat the price and the support!
Thank you for your review! Yes you are right, when you first install the app, it does not automatically apply your product current costs to items in your past orders. This is by design because product costs changes overtime, the app does not assume items costs in your past orders are the same as your products current costs. However the app provide a few options for you to easily update the items costs in your past orders which you have done :).
