Dropshipzone

Jan. 6, 2024

I have been using this app now for 9 months and have seen some great improvements over this time along with a lot of new products being added constantly. Our dedicated team manger Novia has been great in not only answering my questions but sending information and ideas my way. The app works seamlessly, shipping is very prompt and their couriers are very helpful the few times I have had to follow up on shipping during the busy months. Products are easily uploaded and any price increases are automatically synced to my store. You do have to be realistic about profit margins, but considering your not holding stock, not despatching orders it is rewarding for your input and this app makes light work of it.

Was excited when i first got it but am pretty underwhelmed if im honest. Prices are a lot higher than I expected them to be, a lot of products theres just no profit to be made from. My biggest issue is the Sofortig app with shopify. Is extremely clunkey and often doesnt even work. Currently trying to get in touch with support as i still cant update my fulfillment service to dropshipzone meaning my website is essentially useless. Not had any response yet on such an urgent issue so really not that impressed so far. Wouldn't be continuing to use if it wasnt for the fact that i dont know many other AUS dropshipping options.

I got really excited to use this app as i thought the products would suit my store. I uploaded a number of products and then thought id check the market value of them to organise my pricing. it seems as if this app is designed to make retail price sales for a 3rd party from your website and make $5-$10 profit yourself(if that when shipping is involved. an overhaul is needed and i wont come back until pricing is genuine wholesale not retail market value minus $10

Product inventory doesn't update despite the products being bound in Shopify. This is extremely embarrassing when people are ordering products I don't have stop of... when You have to go and manually update cost prices, so my customer ended up buying below my cost price causing me to lose money. Seems only email support is available, can't phone and get actual support!! Nightmare

Good Delivery time to Australia . Product are a bit expensive but there is no cheaper option for dropshippers as almost all products and heavy and large . I believe Dropshipzone is one of the best in Australia.

I have used this app for the last 6 months and with the amount of SKU's we have it certainly makes life much easier, the new fulfilment function is also awesome too. There are a few things we would like to see in the future if possible such as; Being able to push a price/margin update to all the products yourself if you decide to change the margin rather than having to do manually one at a time. Also to be able to have the choice to bring over the shipping costs table on the bulky goods into the description. All in all we love it!

The app has so far been fault free for us. We would like to see some enhancements such as the pricing rules without any restrictions (more competitive pricing would be nice!), product images with clear backgrounds (transparent png type), Products with 'Extra Shipping' cost to have the shipping cost shown on the product, currently have to go back to website to check the extra shipping cost, would be nice to see it in the App itself. Service and Support from the team is very good and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend the app.

Great app. Sofortig has given me the ability to advice and automate my eBay business. With regular inventory levels and price changes I no longer have to monitor and update these details on my eBay account.

Most of the time it is good, it still has some teething problems which I hope they fix. I have a large number of products.

For some reason Sofortig does not update my inventory, even though they are connected to Shopify and have an app. Instead, I get a CSV file emailed to me every day - which is NOT made in the Shopify approved .csv format, so it is completely useless. I have to manually change my stock quantities every single day! The stock on hand on their .csv file does not match the stock on hand on their website, which shows 2 different stock levels depending on where you are on their site at the time. Also, I cannot find Sofortig as an option in my Shopify shipping settings, so I have had to create a separate supplier profile, which makes it more difficult & time consuming. But my biggest problem is this one: I sent them an email last week to ask why many of their 'wholesale' products I have imported cost me almost DOUBLE than that of retail prices offered to the public from Officeworks and Harvey Norman. And why they quote the RRP as being up to 3 times higher than retail actually is. They haven't responded after 3 days. So if I don't get a reply & an explanation soon I will publish the prices here. I have also made a formal complaint to Shopify.

Stock update has been accurate so far, I like how the app syncs with shopify I definitely prefer this to using manual csv method

price update now showup or sometimes have error,unable to filter free shipping or with extra charge shipping,after price update from free shipping to extra shipping fees but then not have a notice that item changing to extra shipping fees.

The app is useless. It cannot link my existing products which I have already imported using CSV. On top, it is confusing to use. I'd rather stay and use my macros to update stock and data rather than relying on this app. Also there is 0 support from the developer. Sent them a couple of mails but no response. Oh and did you know that Dropshipzone sells their own products on ebay and other marketplaces way below the cost price they give to the dropshippers. I wished they could play fair!

This app is a big help in importing stock, but it fails to find a number of products. They are on the dropshipzone site, but searching for them in sofortig just gives the message "No Product". This is extremely disappointing. The app has also been producing a number of errors "connect ENETUNREACH 3.105.169.68:443 - Local (0.0.0.0:0)" which prevents me from logging on or if I am in the app, it will prevent me continuing with what I am doing, and more recently "server instance pool was destroyed". It would appear that some work is needed on the back end of this application to make it more stable and useful. UPDATE: This app continues to disappoint. Inventory is not updating on several products and I have customers ordering products that are not available, because they haven't been updated. If I go to the inventory section they don't even show as having tried to update. Several products will NOT update price and again this is a problem when customers order them. I am tearing my hair out trying to make this work.

I used this app, so that the stock on the store is always up to date. But only after 2 days, we realised that the app is not updating the stock. Its showing the items as in stock on the app, but actually they are out of stock on the website. Its really upsetting, that the core purpose of the app is not fulfilled. Also, the app takes over the shipping rules for the store. So if you have multiple vendor, as we do, sofortig shipping rules are visible for all products across different vendors. This is clearly not the right use case. Sofortig shipping rules should only apply for products which are managed by that app, and not for all vendors. We already lost shipping cost because sofortig calculated as 0, where as we had to pay the other vendor shipping cost. Finally, not all the products have Logistic weight. It could be a bug or its intentional. But it would be hard to understand how the shipping charges are calculated for products with logistic weight as 0. This app really needs some working. As it stands, its not fit for purpose.
