List products and manage orders on both Shopify and WooCommerce

Hope anyone can give me your opinions on my situation. So I want to sell on WooCommerce besides my main store on Shopify and I’m looking for a suitable tool for it within my budget. A few things I want this tool to be able to do are:

  • Sync inventory as in I need the inventory quantity to stay consistent between 2 platforms. When a new order is placed on a platform, the inventory quantity will decrease accordingly and be updated everywhere. I don’t have it in me to fill in the orders and manage the products manually and I am likely to make mistakes as well.
  • Set some rules in listings on WooCommerce. I just want a certain number of in-stock items to be available for sale on WooCommerce and preserve the rest for other purposes. 
  • Send me notifications whenever changes in orders, products, etc. across channels are made. It’s better to keep track of those changes instead of letting them run free and intervening in time in case something goes wrong.

Hope you guys can suggest any tools that can meet my requests. I’m forever grateful!

Greetings to the fellow who wants to sell on both Shopify and WooCommerce like me! May I know what you are selling? I’m selling health and beauty products there.

 

When I first had the idea of selling on both Shopify and WooCommerce, I looked around and found Litcommerce. For the most part, they are working fine. They came to my rescue when it comes to inventory sync. I can make changes to the inventory on my main store on Shopify, and then they will be updated on WooCommerce via their system. This way my stock quantity can be similar on both platforms. Make sure to link your products before syncing them though, or else you will have to get back and fix it like I did the last time. 

 

I think Litcommerce can help you with the listing rule setup here as well. At that time I just wanted to only establish the minimum and maximum quantities displayed on WooCommerce, unlike you, but I remember seeing something similar to your request in their system. It is apparently involved in the inventory sync stage, so you may easily see it and adjust it to your liking.

 

Also no worries about the update notification part here. They have a notification feature available that works like Facebook’s (yeah you get the idea). In my case, I can receive notifications of new orders placed on WooCommerce and get to fulfill them on time. The tool also informs me of new actions taken regarding products, namely importing and linking, then I can proceed with the next steps in my data integration.
