Reviews for XERO SYNC by BOLD

Great app, and really good customer service. The team were really quick to resolve my issue and Alexa in particular went out of her way to keep me in the loop and fix the problem quickly. I'd highly recommend the app too, it makes integration with Xero so quick and easy.

I have been using this app for a couple of years now and found it to cut admin time dramatically. Also when small issues do arise the support has been 100% particularly recently my contact with Brysen. Great App - Great Company - Great Knowledgeable Staff. Hassett Green

Automates the entry of all your sales into Xero. Huge time saver and it’s free! We currently use another app for Inventory.

This is app is great when it's working. However, it would fail to export to XERO for returning customers due to the name already existing in the contact list on Xero. I have to change the setting to not create Contacts and then manually change the invoice details in Xero. This is doubling up my time in correct problem that should not be a problem. Also, it marks invoices and paid which means that I can reconcile the payments until i 'remove & redo' the payment which was system created against the invoice. Also, there is no support channel if thing goes wrong.

Horror. Used to work great, but does not work at all anymore. Xero is an essential integration and MUST work on Shopify Plus plans. Bold Dev's have no clue what they are talking about. Their responses are useless. Don't even try, just a waste of time. There is an app that works just flawless, but why would I pay additional $30 plus monthly for each and any shop on my plus plan? At least they proof that it is possible to have a working connection with Xero. I do not care who to blame. Shopify is in charge to deliver. But they do not. Shame on you Shopify. Time to consider other options...?

This integration used to work really well for year(s). As of August 2018, there have been export errors regularly which is causing an accounting nightmare in Xero. The integration is broken and taking 2+ months trying to resolve this issue (still unresolved) shows just how low a priority it is at Bold. I'm actively looking for a better alternative and so should you.

Free integration, good support, pretty flexible....what more to ask? Well there is always room for improvement. It's a very good app and easy to use.

This app used to work pretty well, but in recent weeks it seems to come up with more and more errors... we're now getting loads of failed exports with no explanation as to why. I just went on the support form to question this and quite stupidly they only give you 30 characters to explain the fault.... seriously stupid.

Love this app, made doing my receipts easy. Also support from Alexa was quick and helpful when I needed it.

Great app with great support. Once setup it runs seamlessly sending all the data we need to Xero. The one time we needed support we got it immediately. Thanks for the fast resolution Nick!

Are you guys aware of how completely broken the Bold - Xero integration is?? I've had ongoing issues since late June!! I'm seeing a number of negative reviews cropping up on the App site so realise I'm not alone in having problems. I know this is now a third party issue (Bold) but many of your users must rely on this APP and as it was yours originally, this reflects badly on Shopify too. We are facing a VAT return in the next few weeks and I have no idea of our liabilities because the Xero App has been so unreliable. This is not a small problem, it creates a massive logistical headache, how do we know what is correctly synced and what isn't. How do we handle the huge amount of work involved in correcting the problems? This integration is absolutely fundamental in making the use of Shopify viable for us and I'm sure many other merchants. We are a multi million pound business shipping 500 orders per week. This is not a trivial matter and yet the months of delays seem to imply that Bold are not taking this seriously enough!

Had some issues getting it going but support team was responsive and sorted the problem out over the course of a few days.

This app previously worked seamlessly. As of last week they have started adding a customer number which in turn adds around 2 minutes more work to every transaction - a massive setback. We now need to edit the customer name as the invoice will look very unprofessional with (Shopify Customer 123456789). Not sure what the devs were thinking when they made this change? In addition, the integration is now quite buggy - some transactions don't come across in spite of accurate part numbers and inventory etc. Super annoying as this was a great product not so long ago

Used to be 5 stars as it did everything I needed. Now 4 stars as annoyingly of today it assigns a shopify customer number to every customer which I then have to remove from Xero afterwards.

I've been using this for a few months now to pull all my orders on to Xero, there have been some errors occurring recently with pulling through the refunds. I contacted the team and David fixed the issue for me in a few hours. Great service and saves me so much work!!

This app was super easy to use and setup. When we did have an issue, (our fault) the tech/customer support found the cause of the issue and gave us steps to solve it quickly. Cheers David for keeping us up and running!!

Customer service was quick to respond to some problems we had and we are currently resolving. Will update this review.

This app works well. Easy to reconcile invoices, payments and transaction fees. I use stock and it works well for the stocked items, except Xero doesn't support back orders, which isn't a Bold issue, but a Xero one. However once I have the stock in it's easy to manually transfer the order to Xero. TBH I'm amazed at the price!

Nick provided helpful feedback as we tried to think through integration for this app!

Brilliant how this App can integrate with everything I have and used for my business. Thanks Xero for have a flexible app, that integrates with everything I need it to.

Good support from David at Bold Commerce. Nice integration.

This app is awesome, it has saved me a ton of time and potential mistakes in crossing my data over! Highly recommended. Had an issue on my settings recently that I had been unable to resolve myself, David sorted it out for me in 2 clicks!

The app is great and works well from Shopify to Xero and is saving us a lot of time. The only reason I give 4 stars out of 5 is that for somebody new to accounting the initial set up and the way that some of the descriptions are worded in the setting can be a bit confusing. Apart from that, customer service was great and I would recommend the app.

Does not actually synchronise your stock levels. It only tells Xero that you have sold an item. It's blatant false advertising. Also there is nothing in the way of customising how invoices are sent to Xero. You can only send them as paid, which only creates more work for our accountants.

We are happy with Xero in general and have been using it for over two years now. However, since late March, our sales(retail and online) are not transferring down from Shopify which is a massive problem. Bold support has been absolutely terrible, keep saying they are looking into it but have no idea when the issue may be resolved if ever. Shopify point to Bold and Xero point to Bold. In the mean time we have asked them all for an easy way to get sales down manually so that the accounting side of our business can function but nothing from anyone. It is a huge undertaking to change accounting software at this stage..not really sure what to do but we will need to make a call soon.
