Phil — December 2024

Even using this early release, the import speed is amazing. Our previous plugin required months to import our large number of products. This tool takes minutes. The ability to run new product additions and updates will change the way we do business.

Krish Himmatramka — February 2025

We've been using this plugin on our live site for a few weeks now and it's been a phenomenal game changer for us. Before with WP All Import, importing products from a supplier would take so long that by the time the import was done, it wasn't even accurate anymore. It was also taking so many resources that our backend would slowly crawl and was near unusable. Now, imports take a few minutes and we can run imports multiple times a day and can keep our products very up to date. We're still moving some imports from WP All Import over to this, but this plugin has been amazing for us. Thank you so much!

Made CSV select searchable and made all select boxes same height
Changed default options for new imports to 'delete items missing from previous import'
