Автоматизация инвентаря для Shopify

With 4,000 products and a physical store already running on Arcavis, I think the reason this keeps failing is that people are quoting you a "Shopify store" when what you actually need is an inventory and POS integration project with a website attached. Those are very different jobs and priced very differently. Two things to settle before you hire anyone else. First, decide who owns stock. Does Arcavis stay the master and push products and quantities to Shopify, or does the till move to Shopify POS and Shopify becomes the master? Two systems that both think they own stock is what kills these projects. If Arcavis stays, you need a sync layer, and whoever builds it should be able to explain to you exactly what happens when a product exists in one system but not the other. Secon…

We’re currently using QuickSync, but it seems to break more often than it works. Almost every time I run a sync to add new products, Clover gets disconnected and I have to go through a long process with support to get everything reconnected. Has anyone else had similar issues with QuickSync and found a permanent fix? Or has anyone switched to another Clover/Shopify sync app that’s been more reliable? Main thing I need is accurate two-way inventory syncing so sales on either Clover or Shopify update inventory on both.

Yeah, I'd definitely stop manually adding and removing products once you're at 500+ items. Shopify can track inventory quantities by product/variant, so the first step is getting every SKU set up with an actual stock quantity and letting the store mark things unavailable when you hit zero. The bigger question is where your stock numbers come from, especially if you're also selling somewhere else, because that's where an inventory app or sync system becomes useful. I'd get the basic Shopify inventory working first before adding another tool unless you actually need multi-channel syncing. Are you selling those 500+ items only through Shopify, or also in a physical store/marketplaces? Do you have variants like different sizes/colors that each need their own stock count?

I build and maintain Shopify stores for a living, and the Clover side is where these break most often. The disconnect you're seeing on new product adds is almost always the session dropping when the sync tool hammers Clover's API during a bulk catalog push, not a Shopify problem. Two things that help regardless of which app you end up on. First, stop creating products through the sync. Pick one system as the catalog master (usually Shopify), create there, and let the app only sync inventory deltas by SKU. Bulk creates are what trip the reconnect loop. Second, make sure every item has a matching SKU on both sides. Blank or duplicate SKUs make these tools quietly fall back to name matching, which breaks the moment someone edits a product title. For alternatives, the ones I've seen …
