Modalyst: Dropshipping

Excellent, love their choice of products and images.

Can anyone explain why the inventory sync is not up to date. I keep selling out of stock product and have to refund the money. This has been happening for more than 2 months and we are loosing business. Can anyone from modalyst answer my emails instead of ignoring me? I have paid for a whole year for the business plan $300 + and my whole business is center around inventories from shein.com.

Love it! Love the products offered and how user friendly it is for beginners. Definitely would recommend

Modalyst is a seamless way to integrate drop shipped products into any online store. They have hundreds of brands and thousands of products that can be added at the click of a button. The terms are pre-negotiated with the brands and are very fair for all parties. There are a few features I'd like to see added and I spoke directly with a founder to help get them integrated. The customer service is great!

Difficult for people who want to offer free shipping to there drop-shipping store. You have to raise the retail price to cover your shipping and you also have to consider their commission 5% and other fees from your shopfiy store.

Some items displayed are also are very inaccurate with the description, some products do not give you any product description at all, no detail on sizing, material, etc.

For example I have found a few products and in the description it states multiple colors but the product itself contains only one color. Other products I found doesn't mention any description what so ever.

So in my opinion Modalyst should have a standard to make sure there suppliers have accurate description, photos, and even correct sizing description or chart. I should be clear that not all products are like this, some of these suppliers go out of there way to provide all the information and pictures needed to make these sales, other however product very limited product detail and pictures.

Subscribed to the PRO plan today. One of the incentives I was interested in was access to brand products. My niche is handbags, crossbodies, totes, clutches and wallets. Brands specific to Michael Kors, Kate Spade, and other high-end brands in this niche were mostly out of stock. Thus, I was not able to take advantage of several brands promoted by Modalyst. Also I am finding items on SHEIN and WISH through Modalyst that I am able to find directly on those sites outside of Modalyst. I would have hoped that by paying for a subscription to Modalyst I would have access to cheaper prices on SHEIN and WISH by using the Modalyst portal versus the same prices that others can get. So far my expectations of Modalyst have not been met, however, today is only day one.

After having tested a few apps that supply products/dropship i can tell i have found Modalyst to be worth, they also have the best support team i could ever find, i'm glad i switched to them, they are definitely helpful with starters, and to be honest? They are the best dropshipping service you'll every find on Shopify!

So far I like this app. Specifically, I love the variety of options- there are many wonderful designers to choose from. I am still building up my store, so I have only had three orders so far. All 3 were from different vendors and all 3 shipped quickly with good communication (tracking update, etc). I love that inventory levels are tracked automatically with Shopify- this really makes life easy! (I use some other dropshippers outside of Modalyst, too, and keeping up with inventory is a giant hassle!!).

I have experienced a few cons, which is why I have not rated this 5 stars:

1. I have a terrible time loading the Modalyst page / app. It can take FOREVER to load, and it is consistently slow. I want to chew through my wrist while I wait for the pages to load!!

2. I find the app / webpage very UN-intuitive when it comes to searching / finding items. There are drop down boxes along the top for category and subcategories, but it is not easy to find a search box to search for specific items. For instance, if I want to search for "red bag" or "emerald", it is really hard to do this because I have yet to find a search bar on the home page. You have to go into an actual category, as best I can tell, to find a search bar. And then it takes forever to load (see #1). Also find it hard to just find your products added to Shopify with a specific designer within the app. These things can all be done- but certainly not as intuitively as they should be. Takes a little extra work / digging around- and who has time for that? Especially with the slow load times! (again, see #1!)

3. Some designers are more responsive than others. I have messaged a few- and only one has really been responsive.

Overall, I would recommend this app/ service to others. It really makes finding unique dropshippers easy- and so far I have had no issues with the ones I have chosen (other than the aforementioned lack of response to inquiries). I think the margin is reasonable, given how little work you have to do as the retailer. The Shopify integration is fantastic.

Thanks!

Our store is brand new and just opened today. I've only been using Modalyst as a vendor for about a week, but I already like it a lot. It's easy to make sure products are not drop-shipping from Asia, so shipping times are reasonable. It's easy to add products to my shopify store. Customer service to me is (so far) outstanding. I can hardly wait to start looking for other things to add to our mix.

Even if you don't wind up using Modalyst, it's worth a couple of hours to find out.

I've been using this for months now and I think I can finally write a review about the company. I found this dropshipping company a few months back, I knew that I wanted to start my own business and I found the route I wanted to go which was dropshipping. I did research on dropshipping for about 2 years before I decided to act on this business plan I was slowing putting together. I decided to go with modalyst. They seemed reliable enough and had suppliers in the us as well as over seas. It became the easiest way for me to add products to my store.

Pros:
You pay them $35 a month for there service which means they supply the items for you from different brands they work with
You can sync the website to company's who provide ecommerce website hosting such as Shopify there are others they sync with just head over to there website
They have lots to choose from such as children's clothing
There customer service is very helpful

Cons:
40-60% split if i remembered correctly which I guess is fair
I wish the brands provide more sales on the items which wouldn't make a difference any way because if a brand your using to dropshipping does lower the sale price you still have to pay them that 60% or if you do choose to place the items on a sale your still responsible for the brands 60% thats owned to them. But you must ask them first before doing so.

Over all I still use it and I'm still going to use because it's actually the easiest route for me right now I hope this was helpful!
