Garnet vs Syncio
Syncio syncs products between Shopify stores. Garnet does it more reliably, in real time: products, stock, orders and tracking reach your store in under a second, and you are alerted if a sync fails. Then it goes further, connecting stores on WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Magento, BigCommerce, Wix and Squarespace.
The short answer
Choose Syncio if all your partner stores run on Shopify and you only need their products copied to yours. Choose Garnet if you need a Shopify sync you can rely on, with stock, orders and tracking synced in real time and an alert when anything fails, or if some of your partners sell on WooCommerce, PrestaShop or another platform.
The Shopify integration, done better
Partners on Shopify install the free Garnet Seller app and paste their integration key. From then on, every change in their store reaches yours in real time:
| Update in the vendor's store | Reaches your store in |
|---|---|
| Price or stock change | about 0.3 seconds |
| New order forwarded | about 0.2 seconds |
| Tracking number | under 1 second |
| Images or description | 1.4 to 3.2 seconds |
Then you decide how each connection behaves
Sync scope
Full content, price and stock, or stock only.
Stock buffer
Hold back a few units so you never sell what the partner just sold elsewhere.
Price transformation
Raise or lower prices by a flat amount or a percentage.
Exchange rates
Prices from a store in another currency are converted automatically.
Orders and tracking
Paid orders are forwarded to the partner's store, and tracking numbers come back to yours.
Alerts
An email tells you when a sync fails, so a broken connection never goes unnoticed.
More than Shopify and WooCommerce
Garnet connects stores on Shopify, WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Magento, BigCommerce, Wix and Squarespace, imports Etsy shops, and accepts CSV/XML feeds, Google Sheets and an API for any other system. Your partners keep working in the store they already have, whatever it runs on. See alle-commerce integrations.
Use case: The Bradery
The Bradery, a French fashion marketplace working with 1,000+ brands, needed to connect brands that sell on PrestaShop as well as Shopify. With Garnet, Shopify brands connect instantly through the Garnet Seller app, PrestaShop brands connect through the PrestaShop integration, and their shipping settings are mapped to The Bradery's. The marketplace imported 40,000 products in 7 months and now runs a catalog of 1M products.
Switching from Syncio
Garnet reads products and orders from your Shopify store, so it can run next to Syncio during the switch. Partners connect their store to Garnet with their integration key, and you choose which products to import.
