Google Feed Rules vs. Productsup

You’ve probably heard the news that Google has added a new function to its Merchant Center to help advertisers format their Google shopping feeds more easily. The Feed Rules tab is a basic solution designed for merchants who have a small inventory of products and who need to make sure their feed complies with Google's specification – otherwise, their products may be rejected.

What can you do with Google Feed Rules?

• Map column headers
• Transform values
• Populate missing attributes
• Add custom labels
• Add shipping values

Who are Google Feed Rules designed for?

Smaller companies with very basic feeds, wanting to merely get their data accepted by Google - for Google Shopping only. However, when it comes to truly optimizing your data and maintaining a clear overview, the feed rules feature certainly has its limitations - the most obvious one being that it serves one channel only: Google.

Google will surely not be stopping here. In time we’ll probably be seeing more additions and improvements - and we're keeping a keen eye on it.

What does this mean for Productsup?

To put it simply, nothing! Truth is, Google’s got nothing on our hundreds of data manipulation possibilities, lightning-fast processing speed, multiple import data sources, API integrations, live data preview, and machine learning capabilities (to name a few). Oh, and most importantly, it’s limited to one export channel only: Google.
