## Same name, different products

Search the App Store for "product xml import" and both apps appear. They solve the same problem with different trade-offs.

## Mapping

MyShop asks you to map XML fields in the app, with more flexible mapping on the Professional plan. ProXI detects the layout automatically and lets support adjust it, which is faster for a new feed and safer when a supplier changes their XML.

## Sync frequency

MyShop syncs daily on Basic and every 12 hours on the higher plans. ProXI syncs once, three or eight times a day depending on plan. For fast-moving stock the gap between 12 hours and 3 hours is the difference between an oversold order and a closed size.

## Trust signals

ProXI carries the Built for Shopify badge and a 4.8 rating from 26 reviews. MyShop has a 3.4 rating from 8 reviews and no badge at the time of verification. Read both listings before deciding.

## Price

MyShop is cheaper at every tier. If your feed is small, stock moves slowly and you are comfortable mapping fields, it may be enough. If not, the difference buys sync speed and support.

## FAQ

### Are these the same app?

No. They share a name but come from different developers. Product XML Import by ProXI is published by Ondokuzon; Product XML Import ‑ MyShop by a different company.

### Why is ProXI more expensive?

The plans include more frequent sync, automatic feed detection, safeguards and hands-on setup help, and the app meets the Built for Shopify requirements.

### Can I switch from MyShop to ProXI?

Yes. Products are matched by SKU, so an import with the same feed updates existing products rather than duplicating them, provided SKUs were imported by the previous app.
