As one of many strings to its bow, WordPress excels at collecting data. However, you might often hit a ‘bum note’ when it comes to analysing that data. A manual export process for your form submissions, WooCommerce orders, products, variations, and more into Google Sheets can create a productivity bottleneck that wastes time and introduces errors. This WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro review examines how this plugin syncs your WooCommerce data to Google Sheets.

Throughout, I’ll look at how the plugin bridges the gap between WordPress and Google Sheets through data syncing automation. It could be that this plugin and process transforms how you manage the data your website handles.

What WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro Is

WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro functions as an integration tool between WordPress and Google Sheets. It enables real-time data synchronization to help eliminate manual data entry. In addition, there is a whole host of companion plugins and add-ons that helps the plugin connect your WooCommerce information directly to your spreadsheets. In turn, this creates a pipeline for critical business information using automation.

WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro is the ‘conduit’ that syncs your store’s orders, products, and customer data to Google Sheets in real-time through the GSheet Connector suite. From there, the family of companion plugins will handle integration with popular contact form solutions such as Contact Form 7, WPForms, and Gravity Forms.

WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro’s ecosystem supports form builders within major page builders too. There are plenty to mention here, but all of the popular options—Elementor, Divi, and more—provide extensive compatibility. This broad support lets you standardize your data management across your website, regardless of which form or e-commerce solution you use.

Where WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro Shines

WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro ultimately looks to eliminate friction points in your data workflows. With this, it delivers a set of concrete benefits that addresses the real operational challenges you might face.

For instance, you can say, “Goodbye” to copy and paste from your spreadsheets, which will eliminate the need for a manual data transfer and reduce human error. Your orders, variations, products, and other data will appear in Google Sheets without your input and save you countless hours.

If you process lots of store information on a daily basis, this time recovery proves substantial. Your marketing teams can work from perpetual updates from Google Sheets rather than logging into WordPress. This can net you faster lead follow-up times and more responsive customer service.

Of course, within Google Sheets you can also implement dynamic dashboards, create custom reports, and develop visualizations using the data you sync. What’s more, everything will update as new data arrives to give you immediate insights without the need for a refresh.

One aspect I’m a big fan of is the ‘one source of truth’. Rather than scattering information across multiple platforms, WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro centralizes your data. This creates a unified repository for customer information and order details that should improve your data consistency and accessibility.

In addition, this centralization lets you view customer interactions by combining data from various touchpoints and other tools—contact forms, newsletter signups, and purchase history—into cohesive profiles.

Finally, Google Sheets’ inherent collaboration means all of your team can work with your data. When everyone works from the same synchronized data source, you can develop more effective, efficient, and responsive planning.

What Powers WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro Under the Hood

WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro delivers through several key areas. I want to give some space to three that I know will be important for you.

Integration With Third-Party Tools

WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro’s ability to ‘play nicely’ with other WordPress plugins represents one of its strongest attributes. Through companion plugins within the GSheetConnector suite ecosystem you can integrate with some of the most popular solutions:

This means you can bring whatever setup your site uses to the table—WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro can handle it.

A Rock-Solid Google Connection

You’re going to want to ensure that you establish a secure connection between WordPress and Google, given the data you will shuttle between the two services. There are two approaches WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro offers.

First, quick-start authentication uses an API that enables a simple setup with minimal technical requirements. It’s a straightforward and accessible way to test or deploy for smaller sites.

For sites that need a level of guaranteed performance or stricter security controls, the second option lets you create custom API credentials through Google Cloud Console. While this setup does require some additional steps, the dedicated connection you get is more reliable and gives you complete control over how you use the API usage.

I’d suggest that production e-commerce websites will want to use a dedicated connection, and while I’ll discuss the documentation later, there’s a guide on how to do this.

Your Data, Organized Exactly How You Need It

WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro gives you precise control over how information appears in Google Sheets. At the base is two-way synchronization that will reflect the changes you make in both Google Sheets and WooCommerce.

From there, you have a couple of ways to work with your data:

• Custom data streams. You can create separate sheets for different data types—Orders, Products, Product Variations, Customers, Coupons, and more. You’re also able to separate orders by status for pending, processing, completed, and refunded orders. This way, your team can focus on specific categories relevant to their responsibilities.
• Tailored spreadsheet design. You can also customize which data fields transfer to Google Sheets, then rearrange the sequence to match your reporting needs. This flexibility extends to field headers—maybe you’ll rename them for clarity, toggle visibility as needed, and apply formatting such as header freezing or background colors to enhance readability.

If your WooCommerce store runs custom fields or extensions, WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro will maintain its compatibility with both official and third-party add-ons. This will ensure the complete transfer of your product and order metadata.

Beginning With WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro

The effectiveness of any integration tool will have a heavy dependency on simple implementation. WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro’s installation process is typical for WordPress.

From there, you can begin to activate the plugin, then look into connecting it to Google Sheets.

The Authentication and Connection Process 

The authentication process will become your first decision point. For most use cases—and certainly for your first time booting the plugin up—the quick-start authentication will be best.

This is essentially about choosing an integration method, then clicking the button to sign into your Google account. The interface is clean and minimalist, which can give you some clarity, especially if you’re a non-technical user. For production use, the dedicated API connection provides better reliability and greater scope.

Once you authenticate the connection, the interface will display which Google account has access. This will save you from using a personal account for business data and vice versa.

Setting Things Up Your Way

Now we can get into configuring your data connections. You’ll want to click the button to fetch any existing spreadsheets from Google first:

From here, switch over to the WooCommerce Data Settings tab. This will include myriad sections that will cover different aspects of the experience:

• Selecting or creating a Google Sheet for your data.
• Choosing which information types to sync (orders, products, customers, and more).
• Customizing column arrangements and field mappings.
• Configuring sync settings for each data type.

There’s also a huge section for adding various Google Sheet headers to each tab you create:

This interface uses drag-and-drop functionality with visual feedback, which will let you see exactly how you’re organizing your spreadsheet before you save the changes. You can also find basic visual customization options further on down. These simple settings let you change header and row colors, and ‘freeze’ headers for better navigation:

Unlike generic automation tools such as Zapier that require you to build WooCommerce connections from scratch, WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro offers a deep understanding of WooCommerce’s data structure. The net result is a minimal number of clicks and a super-fast implementation.

Finally, the Submit Data button runs the spreadsheet setup, and you can view it using the relevant button that appears.

There are some other pieces of functionality, such as the Feed Settings and Role Settings, but these don’t have any bearing on using WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro day-to-day.

WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro Review: The Cost

WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector offers both free and premium versions. The free version provides core connectivity, such as Google Sheets API integration, one-click authentication, basic sheet automation, and more. In fact, all of the add-ons have free versions on the WordPress Plugin Directory too.

This option might suit you if you only have simple form-to-sheet requirements. I’d use it as a way to validate the concept of working with Google Sheets before making an investment. Speaking of which, there are several licensing tiers to accommodate different needs ranging from $49 per year for a single site license up to $249 per year for as many licenses as you need.

Regardless of the number of licenses you choose, you get the full functionality available. This means you can instead focus on the right number of licenses you need.

For instance, if you spend even an hour per week on manual data transfers, a single-site license will pay for itself within months. In particular, a single lifetime license at $149 could offer you the best value for long-term use. At approximately three times the annual cost, it’s going to become more economical after the third year of use.

WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro Review: Customer Support and Documentation

Quality support is essential for integrating a critical business system. To this end, the documentation you get for WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro is vast and covers basic setup, sophisticated configurations, and everything in between.

You’ll find knowledge bases for all of the GSheetConnector add-ons here, and this is for both the free and premium versions.

The knowledge base has good organization, and I was grateful for the comprehensive walkthrough for connecting to Google! It took a complex subject and held my hand throughout.

If you need personal support, you can get this through the dedicated website form:

As a premium customer, you’ll get email assistance with a 24-hour response commitment, live chat during business hours, and a ticket tracking system.

Also, you have a blog to read that will help you understand more about the plugin’s ecosystem.  It’s not going to be your first port of call when it comes to support, but it will help educate you further on using the plugin.

The Verdict: Is WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro Right for You?

WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro provides practicality if you want to automate the data flow between your WordPress website and Google Sheets. Its compatibility makes it a versatile solution for businesses of all sizes. In all, the time-saving benefits and streamlined data management make this a top investment if you deal with form submissions or WooCommerce data.

If you currently copy data between WordPress and spreadsheets without automation, that should change. WooCommerce Google Sheet Connector Pro and its add-ons are some of the best ways to achieve this within WordPress. The value for me is in the real-time data access you get and the ability to create complex visuals without technical knowledge. What’s more, the price is fantastic!
