How it sells itself

Aster keeps a running timeline of every change made to your store — theme and customizer edits, products, collections, inventory, and discounts — so you always know what changed and when. Connect Meta and Google Ads to bring campaign, ad set, and ad changes onto the same timeline. Every change is stamped with a performance snapshot, so you can look back and see what happened around any update.

Admin Activity Log lets you monitor and track important changes in your Shopify store in real time. It records product, order, inventory, and customer events with detailed logs, including actions, timestamps, and old vs new values. Easily review updates like price changes, order status, or stock adjustments through a clean dashboard with filters and search.

Key points
  • A single timeline of every change to your store and ad accounts
  • See exactly what changed in your theme and customizer
  • Meta and Google Ads change history beside your store changes
  • Track products, orders, inventory, and customer activity in real time.
  • Real-time tracking of store activity with detailed logs and insights.
  • Monitor product, order, and inventory changes with detailed logs.
