I am giving this a 1 star rating for now, as the app seems abandoned to some extent. This is a warning for new users. The support will answer (and is generally quite quick) but features and sync fields are slowly being deprecated. Despite the GraphQL api now being the superior api, there seems little willingness to support it. This means that basic fields such as product type is no longer supported. Metafields are supported by they will slow down the sync to a halt. It will literally take you 6+ hours to finish a sync, if you have a fair amount of metafields and products. This is also something use of the GraphQL api would alleviate. This is a huge thing, as Shopify is betting on metafields in a big way. All in all the app does function but you will bear a large cost tying yourself to this app down the line, as it looks right now. I hope in the future that I can come back and change this rating.

20 most recentNot Powerful. I agree with the other reviewers; it works but if there were another app, I'd switch. Pros: nice way to manage inventory with tons of parameters. Shopify admin UI isn't built for bulk editing. This is. Fairly elegant and dynamic solution. Customer service is fairly responsive though slow (days), and their best-fit customer is definitely someone tech savvy and capable of problem solving on their own. Cons: Extremely slow sync, unusable if overloaded - the dashboard will not even load. Come back tomorrow and hope for the best. And if you want to be able to segment your sync to avoid this, you have to pay EXTRA! Even at 200 products, with metafields and images in the mix the sync is 30 mins+ every time. Troubleshooting is rather impossible at that cadence. Unlike other apps, Airpower is not really forward looking or frequently updated with the latest Shopify options. Development seems passive. I've been a customer for years and am looking forward to finding an alternative.
This app was wonderful to use at the beginning, but has grown progressively buggy over the years with support offering little to no help. It is also not being updated to work with changes Shopify is making and is becoming increasingly obsolete as I need to modify about half my inventory data manually since there is no sync between Airtable and Shopify for those particular fields and when asked, I was told there were no plans to do so.
Airpower is an incredible tool, once you get the hang of it. We've got over 3000 SKU's, and roughly 100 metafields for our extensive product library that are all synced with our custom Airtable base. We started with the provided templates to get a handle on how it all works, but once we felt comfortable, we built it to suit our needs. If you're looking to do custom functionality, it does require a decent understanding of the Shopify API and how everything works.
I run a sleeper sofa business and AirPower has helped me grow so much. I used to rely on expensive CRMs. With AirPower, I can just use Airtable as my CRM and move deals through my pipeline easily. It’s saved me a ton of money, simplified my workflow, and let me focus on actually growing my business. As someone who’s a bit of a techie but too busy to overbuild, AirPower has been the perfect fit. I really appreciate how much value it’s brought.
This app is a MUST HAVE for high SKU count stores. We manage about 500 SKUs and being able to sync the data to airtable for analysis, automations, and reporting is invaluable. I wouldn’t be able to run my store without it.
I am very pleased with the help team, quick, friendly and to the point.
My experience with Airpower goes back around 3-4 years. We have used Airpower to sync data to Airtable and until some of the recent changes via Shopify's updates, it has sync'd pretty smoothly. Antonia and Daniel are responsive and helpful and really do a good job. Keeping up with Shopify platform changes would be a bit frustrating so I'm glad they are doing it!
Amazing app, lets us create all kinds of custom processes with no code. Rock solid for years, no issues with uptime or errors. Highly recommended.
Easy to use. Great customer service
Excellent app backed by outstanding support. We run a furniture e-commerce with ~7,400 variants and use AirPower as the backbone of our Airtable PIM — two-way sync of products, prices, inventory and metafields, including market-specific pricing. Setup is flexible and it handles a catalog of our size without breaking a sweat. What really sets AirPower apart is the support. I reported two edge-case issues (batching of market price list updates and Incoming inventory not refreshing on transfers) — both were analyzed quickly and fixed by the engineering team within days of the report. Clear communication throughout, no canned answers. This is how app support should work. Highly recommended for anyone managing their Shopify catalog from Airtable.
I have been using Airpower for more than a decade, and it's the backbone of our tracking infrastructure. I couldn't be a bigger fan. Whenever there is an issue, or I would like to have something new synced into my Airtable, the team handles is fast and competently. I wish everyone would have customer service like this!
Transformed my business! Exceptional
The Real Deal - just press sync and watch the magic happen ;) including A+ support by the Basegenius team !
Awesome tool, previously we were building our own integrations with Airtable using Zapier, but this app is so much easier. The price is right, too!
This app has been a lifesaver. We use it every day without fail, and works a charm. Really simple to setup, particularly with the help from the customer service team. Couldn't recommend it highly enough. 5
If you aren't using AirPower to manage your product data, you're doing it all wrong. The apps potential is almost unlimited once you start delving deeper into AirTable. Support is A+ and will do most of the heavy lifting for you, of which there isn't much! I can't recommend it more highly and only wish I had found it earlier
I've been working with Antonia since end of Dec 2021. She is a phenomenal individual!!!! She goes above and beyond and helps resolve ANY issue I have. She's available at almost any time and is genuinely one of the kindest people I've ever met. Thanks to her, I've been able to fix SO many things on my site. Pro's of using Airtable: (Other than the splendid customer service) - Change almost any aspect of your product information in bulk. If you're like me and you don't like to download and upload again, this would work. - Upload new inventory (EASILY) - it takes a bit getting used to but Antonia stayed on a call with me for well over 2 hours showing me every little thing and even running a test. It took me that long because my products are a bit more on the complicated side (or so I hear from just about every app CS team). - Run automatic sync updates - SO much easier than learning how to use Matrixify, Syncee, or any of the other apps. Don't get me wrong, they're all wonderful with great CS but this one was the easiest to figure out - you can even make copies of what you start with in case you screw up (which I did so many times) but it's easy to fix if you follow the directions. - They keep adding in new features which only makes the app even better. Con's - absolutely non as of yet. Everything I have an issue with is resolved or assisted with immediately. New product upload - Believe it or not - this app just saved me 3.5K - rather than outsourcing my million and one variant products, I was able to fix up my new product files and have it set to upload in just a couple hours. Obviously the 1K variant limit holds for any product upload - but if you are not in a time crunch and you're okay with having 1K variant uploads a day, then give this app a shot for new product uploads. If you have the patience to learn - this app will save your life with mass product updates, uploads, etc. Give it a try and see! :) True me, once you get the hang of it, you won't go back.
good
