Caravel Track vs 17TRACK
Both apps give customers a tracking page. 17TRACK announces more carriers than the other four tracking apps we compared and has thousands of reviews; Caravel Track has no shipment cap on paid plans (fair use from 20,000 a month) and can also use your own 17TRACK API account.
Where Caravel Track may suit you
- Unlimited at $4.99 per 30 days with no per-shipment charge (notice from 20,000 new shipments or 10,000 emails a month)
- Official carrier APIs (DHL, UPS, FedEx, GLS, PostNL and others) with your own credentials, with no per-lookup charge from us
- A larger free allowance (100 shipments a month), limited to Shopify statuses
Where 17TRACK is stronger
- 4,547 public reviews averaging 4.9/5 — more than the other four tracking apps we compared
- Announces 3,300+ carriers, with live tracking on the free plan
- 19 languages and PayPal integration
Status
Caravel Track is not yet published in the Shopify App Store: it has no public reviews yet. Features listed here are the ones in the app's code today. In our test store, the order timeline shows Shopify sending its own "out for delivery" and "delivered" emails when those events were written by a test script to shipments created with customer notification on; the full path from a live carrier status to that email has not yet run. Emails through your own account, delivery analytics and connecting your own carrier credentials have so far been tested only with simulated data, not in a live store.
