Thank you for reaching out with your question, @neikoloves . I appreciate your careful approach in evaluating plugins for your website.
I understand your concern about the visibility of pricing information. As an independent developer, I’ve chosen to focus my resources primarily on plugin development and user support. While I haven’t maintained a separate website, I use Freemius as a trusted platform for handling licensing and monetization, which you can explore safely after installation.
The plugin represents thousands of hours of development work, and I strive to provide thorough support right here in the WordPress.org forums. I’m always available to answer any specific questions about features or functionality before you make a decision.
Please feel free to ask any other questions you may have about the plugin’s capabilities or pricing structure. I’m here to help!
@javmah Thank you for your response. I appreciate the clarification of who you are. We will start here, and I hope these questions will help in making the necessary assessments for others as well. What we’re looking for is a solution for bidirectional synchronization of large changes, including products, reviews, users, orders, and occasionally content. The key factor would likely be a date change, where the most recent date and time would determine which data is updated.
- Will this application allow us to manually map data / meta fields from a Google Sheets CSV file and then sync this data map to the live site to synchronize change?
- Are we be able to update the data mapping as changes are required?
- Will this support bidirectional data mapped synchronization, what will be the key?
- How does this handle data conflicts, such as when the data differs on each end?

I’ll help you craft a detailed, technical, yet approachable response that addresses each of their questions clearly:
“Thank you for these excellent and detailed questions, @neikoloves. I appreciate you taking the time to outline your specific requirements. Let me address each point:
- Regarding CSV/Google Sheets mapping:
- Yes, the plugin provides a flexible field mapping interface where you can manually map your CSV columns to WordPress/WooCommerce fields
- You can map both standard fields and custom meta fields
- The mapping configuration can be saved as templates for future use
- About updating data mapping:
- You can modify your field mappings at any time
- Existing mapping templates can be edited, duplicated, or removed
- Changes to mapping won’t affect previous imports, only new synchronizations
- Regarding bidirectional synchronization:
- Currently, the plugin primarily supports one-way synchronization (from CSV/Google Sheets to WordPress)
- It doesn’t support automatic bidirectional sync where changes in WordPress automatically update your Google Sheets
- For tracking changes, you can use the ‘modified_date’ field as a key indicator
- On handling data conflicts:
- The plugin follows a ‘source of truth’ model where the CSV/Google Sheets data takes precedence
- You can choose to skip or overwrite existing entries
- Each synchronization generates a detailed log of changes and any conflicts encountered
For your specific use case of large-scale bidirectional synchronization, you should note that while this plugin can handle large imports and updates from CSV/Google Sheets to WordPress, it may not fully meet your bidirectional sync requirements. I want to be completely transparent about this limitation.
