Reviews
There are some important things that aren’t working and it would be great if that gets updated soon.
If everything worked, it would be a very good plugin, but you don’t get any support at all and that’s the main reason for the bad rating.
Hopefully they are working on a update for this plugin as it is definitely not working like it should.

Sorry but for me this plugin is still in alpha stage.
Orders report is empty (I have dozens of backorders).
Stock report is working fine but the plugin does not support WPML (all products are duplicated).
This is not what I expected from a plugin that has a paid version. Maybe later?
Good luck!

Excellent plugin for an overview of all backorders in WooCommerce. Also I finally have an option to stop all those annoying automatic backorder mail notifications at once.
