Im setting up a new shop and so far the plugin is great. I find it is best to create the product (variable in my case) in Gelato, not in Woocommerce. It is alot quicker and easier that way. The way the mockups are created is awesome and the pricing is really intuitive. Im using it together with a swatches plugin for a better front end UI. Only thing Im missing is some options to change the attribute order and default. So don't let the low rating of others fool you, it works great.

I was surprised when I saw the overall bad rating for this plugin - I'm working with Gelato for about 2 years now - and I used their Woocommerce plugin from the start - so far I have been very satisfied with it!However, I'm not a huge e-commerce store - I only offer a few poster variations with custom designs, so I'm probably not able to give a thorough review for the plugin and every functionality there is. But I wanted to take the opportunity to express my personal satisfaction with Gelato and the plugin. I never had any major issues with both and so far it had just been "smooth sailing". :)If I encounter any bugs or issues (and that doesn't happen often), I usually mail Gelato support and they are always helpful. The same is true for any issues with the products (e.g. damages/printing issues) - in my case posters. There are probably less then 5% complaints from customers (most of them aren't even Gelato's fault, like damaged on transport) and Gelato usually sends a replacement right away, once I report the damage/quality issue.I rely on reviews a lot myself, so: if anyone is reading this and is on the fence: just give them a try! 🙂

I tried Gelato despite the poor reviews, and I am very pleased. It integrated seamlessly and is very easy to use. They could do with adding some more products, as competitors so have a bigger selection, however I will stay with them based on my experience.
