Should I be using EasyPopulate?

[seriousaboutsound]

I have a few thousand products to enter into the store and began by searching for the quickest and most effecient way to do so. The only thing I really found was EasyPopulate, and that lead to lots of reasons not to use it. I have a store with a template you can find here:

I found some stuff on easypopulate complicating stores and/or messing with product attributes. Going to make sure it is appropriate for my goal, and that I follow the correct installation if needed.

 

I would like to find out if EP is the only way, how exactly EP screws with product attributes (i need to use these for my products), and whatever else people find that work.

 

Any input is greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks

Where are you using product attributes?

I used EP with no ill effects on products with attributes before.

The current version is even designed with attributes in mind.

I would have products with things like color->titanium/black etc. (no change in price) and products with size->12" (+100.00 dollars). So Ill need to use the price adjustment part of it as well.
