San Jose, CA, United States, 23rd Oct 2026 - Shopify merchants invest significant time building and maintaining their product catalogs, from product descriptions and variants to inventory quantities, collections, metafields, and product photography. Unexpected data changes, incorrect bulk imports, or accidental edits can disrupt store operations and leave merchants facing time-consuming catalog recovery work.

Octopus Bridge today announced Octopus Harbour, a Shopify backup app designed to help merchants maintain copies of important product catalog data and simplify recovery when changes need to be reversed.

Automated Backups and Catalog Protection

Octopus Harbour supports nightly automated backups and on-demand backups that merchants can run before making significant catalog changes. Its backup coverage includes products, variants, inventory quantities, collections, metafields, and product images at their original resolution.

Each backup is packaged into a ZIP archive containing structured catalog data and associated images. Merchants can retain these archives as separate copies of their catalog information for reference, catalog reviews, and recovery planning.

The app also offers backup restoration support through a guided CSV workflow. Merchants can select a previous snapshot and prepare catalog data for re-import into Shopify. Its image restoration workflow is designed to help address missing product images by referencing copies stored in Harbour's backup system.

Flexible Plans for Growing Stores

Octopus Harbour is available through the Shopify App Store with a 14-day free trial. Subscription plans start at $8.99 per month, with higher-tier options offering increased catalog limits and longer backup retention periods.

The app focuses on product catalog protection rather than claiming to back up every component of a Shopify store.
