DSers Review: Is It the Best Oberlo Alternative for Shopify Dropshipping?

When talking about Shopify dropshiping, two dropshipping apps on Shopify come to my mind: DSers and Oberlo. They are the most popular and powerful tools to help dropshippers deal with their business on Shopify. It’s worth mentioning that DSers also give support to WooCommerce and Wix dropshippers. Except this, I will focus on the Shopify version of DSers and compare it with Oberlo when necessary in this article.

What is Shopify Dropshipping?

I’m sure that you all know what is Shopify. But have you ever heard of Shopify dropshipping? Nowadays, it is not a secret to sell online with Shopify store for profits. However, some succeed while most fail to earn money but lost the investment. Dropshipping is the business model that requires a very small investment. You even don’t need to stock any products to run your Shopify store. You only edit and publish the products online to your store then contact the suppliers of those products to ship orders from your customers.

That’s simple but not that easy as you may imagine. For example, your supplier has no stock to ship your order but you don’t know that and keep the product live on your shop; when thousands of orders swarm into your backend, how can you process them in a short period to keep your customer happy with fast shipping service? That’s why you need a dropshipping tool like DSers to help you manage your stores and orders.

DSers is the most used dropshipping tool on Shopify app store at the 5-star rating. When you search for dropshipping on Shopify app store, DSers ranks the top 1 with 4800+ positive reviews.
