BundleBoss
BundleBoss
To get configurable bundles, per-unit runs and per-item personalisation from the official WooCommerce extensions, you stitch together two or three plugins. BundleBoss does it in one.
To match what BundleBoss Pro does using official WooCommerce.com extensions, you would reach for Product Bundles (about £60 a year), Composite Products (about £112) for the configurable, choice-based building, and Product Add-Ons (about £49) for personalisation. That is roughly £220 a year, across three separate plugins. BundleBoss Solo is £79 and built as one.
These are all capable plugins. Here is how they line up on the things that matter for configurable, personalised kits, including the one piece we are still building.

Competitor features and prices are as we understand them at the time of writing, so check each vendor for the latest. "Coming soon" is a feature we are actively building. WooCommerce.com prices are the public single-site rates; YITH and WPC price in US dollars, shown here converted and rounded.
Three plugins means three settings screens, three things to update, three places to ask for help, and the edge cases where they do not quite talk to each other. BundleBoss is one tool built to do bundling, configuring and personalisation together. And it personalises every unit on its own, a different name on each shirt, which the three are not built to do even side by side.
The official extensions are good and well supported. If you only need one piece, they are a fine choice. BundleBoss is for when you want the whole configure-and-personalise flow as a single, cheaper thing.
