WooCommerce Shipping (Jetpack)
WooCommerce Shipping (Jetpack) prints USPS, UPS, and DHL labels inside WooCommerce and advertises discounted rates and label-rate comparison. But it doesn’t show live rates at checkout (you need separate carrier extensions) and it’s US‑first with limited UK/EU carrier coverage. ParcelOffice is built for UK/EU merchants with Royal Mail & DHL adapters out of the box, smart rules, and hands-off tracking.

PluginHive UPS Shipping
PluginHive UPS is excellent for UPS‑only merchants (live rates, labels, tracking). But most stores need multiple carriers and automation across them. ParcelOffice unifies carriers (Royal Mail, DHL, more via adapters) and decides the service for you.

PluginHive FedEx Shipping
PluginHive’s FedEx plugin is a solid choice if you only ever ship with FedEx. It provides live FedEx rates, label printing, and tracking sync - but it leaves carrier choice to staff and locks your workflow to a single provider.

PluginHive DHL Express Shipping
PluginHive’s DHL Express plugin focuses on a single fast carrier. ParcelOffice integrates DHL alongside other carriers and decides when to use it based on cost, speed, and your rules.

ELEX DHL Express
ELEX’s DHL plugin is a strong DHL option with label printing and tracking, but it’s still DHL‑only and manual. ParcelOffice brings DHL + Royal Mail from day one, adds smart selection, and automates tracking.

ELEX EasyPost
EasyPost aggregates carriers (UPS, FedEx, USPS, Canada Post) via API, with per‑label fees and external billing. ELEX’s EasyPost plugin connects WooCommerce to that API, but you still rely on an external SaaS account and API keys.

Sendcloud
Sendcloud connects WooCommerce to 100+ EU carriers, offering labels, tracking, returns, service‑point checkout, and automation rules - but it runs in an external SaaS dashboard with plan caps (labels/month) and paid tiers for advanced features.
Read comparison →
ShipStation
ShipStation is a popular multi‑carrier SaaS for multi‑channel sellers. It syncs Woo orders, compares rates, batch‑prints labels, and sends tracking - but it lives outside WooCommerce and uses tiered monthly pricing (costly for low volume). Some features (API access, advanced automations) are plan‑gated.

Packlink PRO
Packlink PRO is a free aggregator: access discounted rates from 300+ carriers, import orders, print bulk labels, and track in their dashboard. Great to start, but you’re locked to Packlink’s ecosystem and portal.

Easyship
Easyship shines for cross‑border rate comparison and duties/taxes visibility - but you manage labels in their external dashboard with tiered plans. Many WooCommerce teams prefer not to shift staff to a separate portal.

ShippyPro
ShippyPro offers labels, tracking, returns, and analytics for many carriers - but via an external SaaS with modular pricing. For many SMEs, it’s more than they need and moves fulfillment outside WooCommerce.

Veeqo
Veeqo (owned by Amazon) is a robust shipping + inventory tool aimed at multi‑channel sellers. It’s free to use, but it pulls teams into a separate Amazon‑backed system with its own workflows and data policies.

WooCommerce Table Rate Shipping
Table Rate Shipping is the classic way to build custom checkout prices (by weight, value, qty, zone). It’s powerful for pricing, but it doesn’t choose carriers or print labels.

Conditional Shipping & Payments
Conditional Shipping & Payments controls which methods are visible at checkout (e.g., hide Free Shipping for heavy items). It’s great for policy enforcement, but it doesn’t choose carriers or print labels.

Per Product Shipping
Per Product Shipping lets you define manual shipping costs per SKU. It’s useful for bespoke items, but hard to maintain at scale and doesn’t automate fulfillment.

AST (Advanced Shipment Tracking)
AST (free, with AST Pro upgrade) supports 850+ carriers and makes it easy to add tracking numbers and send updates. It’s the go‑to tracking‑only plugin.

AfterShip
AfterShip is a cloud tracking platform with 900+ carriers, branded pages, and email/SMS notifications. You import tracking to their SaaS; they handle updates.
Read comparison →
TrackShip
TrackShip automates post‑shipment tracking updates (often paired with AST). It doesn’t create labels or select carriers.
Read comparison →
ParcelPanel
ParcelPanel focuses on branded tracking pages (freemium with low free limits). It enhances customer experience but doesn’t address how labels are created.
Read comparison →
Route
Route sells shipping protection and a customer‑facing tracking app. It’s not a label or decision engine.
Read comparison →
Royal Mail Shipping Plugin
Royal Mail plugins focus on rates and sometimes labels via external services. They don’t automate carrier choice or unify multi‑carrier workflows.
Read comparison →
DPD Plugin
DPD plugins add DPD rates/labels, but aren’t built to compare carriers or apply business rules across them.
Read comparison →
Evri Plugin
Evri (Hermes) plugins enable budget‑friendly shipping, but still require staff to decide when Evri is appropriate.
Read comparison →
PluginHive Multi-Carrier Shipping
PluginHive’s multi‑carrier plugin combines table‑rate logic with carrier APIs, but can be complex to configure and still leans on manual decisioning at the bench.
Read comparison →
EasyPost Multi-Carrier
EasyPost’s multi‑carrier API is powerful but introduces another vendor, another bill, and another dashboard (if you use their portal). Many Woo stores want that power without the overhead.

WPRuby Simple Table Rate
Simple Table Rate is great for checkout pricing, not fulfillment. It can’t choose carriers or print labels after purchase.

WooCommerce Shipment Tracking (Official)
WooCommerce Shipment Tracking adds a tracking field and carrier link to orders/emails. It’s manual and tracking‑only.
Read comparison →
Orders Tracking (VillaTheme)
Orders Tracking imports tracking numbers and notifies customers (email/SMS). It’s useful if labels are generated elsewhere - but it adds steps and doesn’t speed up fulfillment.
