Matrixify is a mature and powerful tool that lets you export your Shopify data as CSV/Excel and bulk edit it with templates. Mocksheets solves the same bulk editing need with AI — without filling in CSV templates, using natural language commands.
Matrixify (formerly Excelify) is one of Shopify's most comprehensive data migration tools. It can export/import almost any Shopify entity — products, collections, customers, orders — via CSV/Excel. It is considered the industry standard for large store migrations, detailed data backups and complex bulk updates. It has been active for years with a mature user base.
Mocksheets offers a different approach: instead of downloading and filling a CSV template, you connect directly to your Shopify store and issue natural language commands like "Find and fix missing SEO titles" or "Rewrite descriptions for all active products". The AI interprets the command and presents suggestions for your approval. It's designed for day-to-day operations work like SEO optimization, description generation and catalog health checks.
| Feature | Mocksheets | Matrixify |
|---|---|---|
| Bulk editing method | AI command (natural language) | CSV export/import + template |
| Content generation (description/SEO writing) | AI generates automatically | None — only moves existing data |
| Learning curve | Low (natural language commands) | Requires CSV/template knowledge |
| Data migration/backup depth | Basic (products and collections) | Very strong — nearly all Shopify entities |
| Large store migration | Not suitable | Industry standard |
| Catalog health score | Yes (0-100 · SEO + content + image) | None |
| Duplicate / missing data detection | Yes (automatic with AI) | Manual — you check the CSV yourself |
| Shopify App Store maturity | New | Mature, multi-user, long history |
Pricing: For current pricing, check the official Shopify App Store pages. Plans for both products may change over time.
Choose Matrixify if: You need comprehensive data migration, backups or very complex bulk updates (technical templates with thousands of rows), Matrixify's depth is a strong choice. If you are moving a store to another platform or account, or if you work with non-product entities like orders/customers, Matrixify clearly stands out.
Choose Mocksheets if: You want to handle day-to-day SEO/description/tag edits without wrestling CSV templates and instead tell the AI "do this", Mocksheets offers a faster path. Also, if you need AI content generation, catalog health scoring and duplicate detection — features Matrixify doesn't provide — Mocksheets steps in.
Both together: They can be used for different purposes without getting in each other's way — Matrixify for large data migrations, Mocksheets for daily AI-assisted operations. Because their scopes don't overlap, running both on the same store can make sense.
Because they serve different purposes, using them together is a valid option in most scenarios.
Without filling in a CSV template, connect to your Shopify store and let the AI manage your catalog. No credit card required.
