Choosing a dropshipping app is mostly about two questions: what does it cost to start, and what does the product limit actually count. Here's a straight comparison using each company's own public pricing page, checked in October 2026. Prices change, so always check the latest on their sites.
Starting price
| App | To start |
|---|---|
| ExiusCart | Launch free for 7 days (no card), then $14.99/mo. Growth or Scale: $1 for 7 days |
| AutoDS | $1 for 3 days, then from about $26.90/mo |
| DSers | Free plan. Paid from $19.90/mo |
| Spocket | 7-day trial, then from $39.99/mo |
| Zendrop | Free plan. Auto-fulfilment from $49/mo |
What the product limit counts
This is where people get caught out. Some apps count every variant: a T-shirt in 4 sizes and 3 colours uses 12 of your slots.
| App | Limit counts |
|---|---|
| ExiusCart | Products. Variants are free, so that T-shirt is 1 product |
| AutoDS | Product variations: 200 on the entry plan |
| DSers | Products: 3,000 free, 20,000 on Advanced |
| Spocket | Unique products: 25 on Starter, 250 on Pro |
| Zendrop | No product count stated |
Which one should you pick?
- You already run a Shopify store and only need AliExpress order syncing: DSers' free plan is hard to beat for that one job.
- You want US/EU suppliers with fast shipping and don't mind paying more: Spocket is built around that.
- You're starting from zero and don't want five separate subscriptions: ExiusCart puts the store, product research, a page builder that turns a supplier link into a full product page, supplier order automation and email marketing in one plan.
What makes ExiusCart different
ExiusCart comes with Eevo, an AI agent (on Growth and Scale). You ask in plain words. It checks real market prices and your margin, gives a verdict, and can launch the product into your store in a click. Eevo Page Builder builds the product page from a supplier link, and auto-fulfilment places the supplier orders for you.
No surprise charges: we email you 2 days before your first full-price payment, and there's a 14-day money-back guarantee on that first full payment.
