Foldsquare ‑ Catalog Maker

Very intuitive and easy to use. I was able to do in an hour what had previously taken me days. Plus, great support. Very pleased!

This app has gotten progressively worse; it used to work but is not extremely buggy. Products routinely disappear from being added to a catalog, alignment is off, in short this does not work as advertised. Moreover, customer support is non-existent (they never use chat support, and don't return emails). RUN from this terrible app.

Appalled at the cost which I only discovered after 2 hours working on my catalogue. $99 a month is a rip off!

Took a bit of time but does the trick! Would like to see a bit more control on the variant editing though

UPDATE: I added one more star because their support has been responsive. They have fixed my issues, but I am still upset that it had to be brought to my attention from a sales lead. Needs more user testing on this app! They said the digital cart broke because they are working on the new one---but when were you going to notify your paying customers about the current one breaking??? OLDER REVIEW: Absolute garbage experience. The online print catalog is ok, but not intuitive in the slightest to update it. The digital catalog is atrocious. Some buttons just don't work, so many errors to count. It's basically the most unusable experience I've seen. Don't waste your money on this thing!

This was an expensive app for me to purchase and the GUI is glitchy on Google Chrome and after spending numerous hours creating my about page which has alot of text and uploading my font, I find the export does NOT function with my selected font. I went back and chose a generic font like Roboto and again, the export was terrible!

Lots of function, lots of flaws. Has CSS function to style the catalog as needed but has limitations too. No autosave feature so will lose changes if page freezes which happens often when dealing with a larger catalog or if you forget like I did. More often than not, editing is slow and takes a while to make changes needed to text, layout, etc. So no quick edits or changes, expect to spend a while editing waiting for the system to catch up with you when you click on text/while making changes to text. Horribly glitchy with Chrome browser at times, which is a super common browser to use but not sure it would work any better with any other browser but shouldn't have to tho, it should work with any browser. One of the most infuriating issue I found (so far but still working on the catalog so that could easily change) is that the About page img is hard to change... I removed old img, added new img, couldn't edit text afterwards. I removed img and text and tried layering the img under the text, clicked on img option on left of screen in edit layout mode and up pops up a text layer (wtf?). No matter how hard I tried, just couldn't get that to display right without having to completely start from scratch with a new page and build up my own About page. Another infuriating issue is that the text can be changed (font, size, color, etc) but when you look at it via html mode, there exist all the settings you selecting while changing out the font, size, and other attributes. All of it there, waiting to mess up how your text is displayed when you least expect it. All of it, littered throughout the paragraph in the background, ready to make your text look like sh**. Try cleaning it up and expect the page to freeze and the task becomes almost impossible to complete. Can't use custom fonts even tho it offers the use of them because the PDF export will not include them when you download the catalog, it feels like it's a gimmick to make the app seem full of features but in actuality it's only for certain uses not all (ie: custom fonts may be visible only for the digital catalog / editing phase but not PDF versions or something to that effect) which makes this feature completely useless for me. Frustrating . . . I am only giving this app any stars because it does have a lot of features that do make this app worth it IF the developers can fix the major issues the app has but not sure those issues will ever be worked on. Me personally, I am using this until I find something better and probably will never look back ಠ_ಠ

I use this help to help me make catalogs for my business. It works ok. We have not run into too many issues while using the app.

Conceptually a great idea, and it felt like for a while they were building something- but recently basic features have been failing consistently and even the support box bugged out. I cannot recommend this to someone at present.

Hi, the business owner here. Currently, the app does not seem to work very well. There are a lot of bugs and glitches such as with resizing of photos which is the builder's main purpose. The builder also lacks many basic features such as very limited ways to sort products, inability to link the table of contents to pages created, product names and prices do not automatically update which means any catalogs you have you will have to constantly update your products one by one, and so many more issues. Another key issue is if you lapse on payment they immediately lock you out and you are unable to access all the catalogs you already paid for to create I am currently waiting for a response from their customer support team and if they are able to resolve our issues we will change our star rating and update what we mention here in the review.

Haven't had a positive experience yet difficult to navigate and customers hate that all catalog order forms start at 1 not zero

It is an absolute waste of money

The app’s features are convenient, but I frequently encounter errors that prevent me from progressing to the next step. For example, saving often fails, causing me to lose hours of work. Additionally, product metafields sometimes don’t load correctly, product data fails to display, or layouts break after publishing. I’ve run into numerous bugs, which has been frustrating. To make matters worse, support can take several days to respond, and I’m still struggling to resolve some issues. While I’m satisfied with the app’s functionality overall, it would be an excellent app if these bugs were addressed.

Support is not very good, sent many messages and the support chat send button does not work, very frustratinig.

It makes good catalog, but interactive options are limited. We can`t find where to see placed orders from interactive catalog (if choosing option add to wholesale order sheet) and there is an issue to link catalog to store front. No support or instructions online for this issue. In support chat send button doesn`t work.

I’d say other merchants should know that Foldsquare is a really useful tool if you need to create a professional-looking product catalogue quickly and without a lot of hassle. It saved me a lot of time and delivered a really good final result, especially when I needed a catalogue urgently. The process was straightforward, and the quality of the finished catalogue was impressive

I have not used this app before yet, i just paid for it, i hope it is worth it. Looking forward to creating catalogues with it.

Excellent customer service and very useful product. Wen are using it to generate a pricelist using our Shopify data and it saves us loads of time.
