Dynasort Review (2026)
By Daan Haket · Researched and written with an AI assistant · who does what
Sorting driven by 60+ blended signals is powerful and opaque in the same breath: a recipe that ranks by margin, velocity and stock at once will sometimes bury a product you wanted seen, and there is real trial and error in getting the recipes to match how you actually merchandise.
Shopify stores with large or fast-changing catalogues where product order is a merchandising decision — seasonal ranges, frequent stock-outs, wide margin spreads — and nobody who wants to re-order collections by hand every week..
your catalogue is small enough for one person to curate in an afternoon, the order barely changes, or you are not on Shopify — at $99 a month for the first paid tier, the sorting has to be earning its fee.

Lowest paid entry price per account a month, billed monthly, in USD, among the 58 e-commerce growth apps we have researched (read between 2026-08-19 and 2026-10-23). Only tools priced in the same unit and on the same billing are compared — not a market survey, and cheapest is not best.
Four tiers, all billed in USD and recurring every 30 days, and the cards have been rewritten since September. Demo is free for as long as you like: search, recommendations and post-purchase included, 2 collections sorted round the clock, 10 recipes drawn from 60+ signals, 2 managed collections, 10,000 serves a month, 7 days of serving analytics and a re-sort every 60 minutes.
Basic is $99 a month for 25 sorted collections, 20 recipes, 10 managed collections, 100,000 serves a month, Customers Also Bought recipes, 7-day analytics and a 30-minute re-sort. The two upper cards are printed in a way that cannot be right as it stands: the card priced at $249 and named Pro opens with 'Everything in Pro, plus' and lists 1,000 collections, 250 recipes, 100 managed collections, unlimited serves, a 10-minute re-sort, 365-day analytics and priority onboarding, while the $499 Enterprise card opens with 'Everything in Basic, plus' and lists 100 collections, 50 recipes, 25 managed collections, 1 million serves a month, A/B testing with a one-click winner, a connector API, mobile-versus-desktop analytics, a 20-minute re-sort and 30-day analytics.
Read by the headings, the 100-collection list belongs to Pro and the 1,000-collection list to Enterprise, the same swap we recorded on 14 September and saw corrected on 15 September; but the prices sit where they sit, so have the developer confirm which allowance comes with which price before you pay. Every paid tier carries a 30-day free trial. The September cards' yes/no lines for custom attributes, partner integration and product boost no longer appear. Plans change — always verify the live price on their site.
Category context: E-commerce. Across the 47 tools in this category that we researched with a public US-dollar price, the median entry price is $19 a month (lowest paid plan as listed, per seat where the vendor prices per seat). Dynasort’s entry price of $99 a month sits above that median. Compare pricing conditions in the Software Cost Atlas →
What the price did
We capture Dynasort’s own pricing page every month and keep the figures, so this is our record of the page — not a forecast, and not someone else’s summary.
Three dated readings, prices unchanged, cards not. On 14 September 2026 the listing priced Basic, Pro and Enterprise at $99, $249 and $499 with the Pro and Enterprise capacity blocks under the wrong headings; on 15 September the ladder read correctly and the paid cards listed no serve allowance. On 3 October 2026 the prices were the same, but the cards had been rewritten: serves now appear on every paid card (100,000 on Basic, 1 million and unlimited above it), the signal count went from 40+ to 60+, and the two upper feature lists again sit under self-contradictory headings.
What the pricing page doesn’t say
The jump from free to paid is steep at $99 a month, and it buys capacity rather than capability: search, recommendations and post-purchase are already in the free Demo, and Basic multiplies collections, recipes and serves (100,000 a month against 10,000). Above that the listing contradicts itself — the $249 card says 'Everything in Pro, plus' and the $499 card 'Everything in Basic, plus' — so which tier carries A/B testing and the connector API is not something the page settles.
And the evidence base is thin: 4.6 from 15 reviews, with fourteen fives and a single one-star and nothing in between. It is Shopify-only, so it is not an option if any part of your catalogue lives elsewhere.

What buyers report about Dynasort
Hands-on: not tested by usReported by buyers: Shopify App Store listing apps, read September 2026
Themes from the buyer-review sites listed at the foot of this page, read in September 2026. We have not run Dynasort ourselves, so this is other buyers' experience rather than ours. We summarise it here because the complaints are usually the part a vendor page leaves out.
- • Tenure is the unusual part of this set. Reviewers write at almost three years, at over a year twice, and at eleven months of continuous use — a different signal from a wall of first-week enthusiasm. The long-tenure reviewers are retailers in Israel, the United States and the United Kingdom.
- • Sorting on margin is described as a money outcome rather than a convenience. An Australian bathware retailer at about a year says they make better margins because they can prioritise the products that earn well, in an industry where sell prices track the market.
- • A US golf retailer says the app's ordering converts at a higher rate than Shopify's own. A UK fabric merchant gives the concrete version: out-of-stock products pushed to the bottom of every collection, hours saved each week against doing it by hand, and recipes flexible enough to follow the seasons as new stock replaces last year's sellers.
- • It is the app that survived a bake-off at high SKU counts. A US fashion brand lists Algolia, Boost, Sort'd and Fast Simon as tools they had used and says Dynasort is the only one that could handle what they do.
- • One support name recurs across independent reviews — Wade — described as answering within minutes, building custom work including multi-location views, and fixing a year's single issue on the spot.
- • The single negative review is worth reading in full before you install. A US merchant three days in calls it a completely non-working app and a waste of time, and says two days of support produced generic replies with no specifics and that the basic rules could not be set up.
- • The vendor's public reply to that review names a cause that belongs on any buyer's checklist: the merchant's theme was overriding Shopify's manual sort order by defaulting to best-selling, a theme-level setting that bypasses whatever a collection app writes through the Shopify API. Check your theme's default collection sort before you judge the app — by the vendor's account it affects every app in this category, not only this one.
- • The scoring takes learning. A UK merchant nine days in says it takes a while to understand the logic of the scoring before it becomes powerful, which is the same opacity our own note on this page flags.
- • The base is small and English-speaking: fifteen reviews from the United States, the United Kingdom, Israel and Australia, and not one of them describes a failure mode other than the theme conflict above.
Where the ratings disagree. Fifteen reviews is a thin base and the shape is all-or-nothing — fourteen fives and one single star, with nothing in between. What makes it more useful than a larger pile of first-week praise is the spread over time: the set runs from November 2024 to June 2026, and several reviewers are writing at one to three years of continuous use, which is the durability evidence a new app cannot offer. It also helps that the one bad experience has a documented technical cause the vendor answered in public, so you can check whether it applies to your theme rather than guessing.
Pages read (September 2026): Shopify App Store
Basic buys capacity; above it, check which card is which
Basic at $99 a month is a straight capacity step over the free Demo: 25 sorted collections instead of 2, 20 recipes instead of 10, 10 managed collections, 100,000 serves a month instead of 10,000, a 30-minute re-sort and Customers Also Bought recipes. Search, recommendations and post-purchase are already in the free tier, so Basic does not unlock a new surface; it lets the same engine work on more of your catalogue.
Above Basic the listing is currently unreliable. The $249 card is headed 'Everything in Pro, plus' and the $499 card 'Everything in Basic, plus', which reads as if the two feature lists have swapped places again. One list adds A/B testing with a one-click winner, a connector API and 1 million serves a month; the other adds 1,000 collections, 250 recipes, unlimited serves and a 10-minute re-sort. If A/B testing or the API is why you are upgrading, get the tier confirmed in writing first.
What no tier fixes is the work: the recipes still have to be built and watched, and a sort blended from 60+ signals will still bury products you wanted seen. Paying more buys reach and speed, not better merchandising judgement.
Our monthly capture read this vendor's pricing page in September 2026 and again in October 2026, and the amounts were the same both times, including $99, $249 and $499 from the pricing above. We keep watching — the registry records what moves.
How to actually use Dynasort
Use the free Demo tier properly rather than as a preview: it sorts 2 collections around the clock, which is exactly enough for a controlled comparison. Pick your best-selling collection and one you suspect is badly ordered, record the conversion rate and revenue per visit for both before you change anything, and let a single recipe run for a full two weeks. Start with one clear signal — push sold-out products down, or sort by sell-through — before you blend margin and inventory into it, because a recipe built from six signals at once is one you cannot reason about when a product disappears from view.
Watch which products drop as much as which ones rise; that is where automated merchandising goes wrong. Then check the serve allowance against your traffic (10,000 a month on Demo, 100,000 on Basic) and take the full 30-day trial to see a real sales cycle.
Where this section comes from: our research notes (175 words)
The Shopify App Store listing at apps.shopify.com/dynasort, read 14 September 2026 and re-read 15 September 2026: all four pricing cards with their capacity lines and trial terms, the “All charges are billed in USD” note, the feature and integration lists, and the rating block, which reads 4.6 from 15 reviews (93% five-star, 7% one-star). The listing carries Shopify's Built for Shopify badge, names the developer as Dyna and dates the app's launch to 19 September 2022.
The 15 September re-read is the one the pricing and plan-comparison text above is built on; it corrected the capacity figures recorded on 14 September for the Pro and Enterprise tiers. Listing re-read 3 October 2026 (served HTML): same prices and 30-day trials; rewritten cards with serves on every paid tier (Basic 100,000; upper cards 1M and unlimited), A/B testing and connector API on the $499 card, 'Everything in Pro, plus' heading on the $249 card; 60+ signals; rating still 4.6 from 15.

Frequently asked questions
What does Dynasort cost?
Read on 3 October 2026 on its Shopify App Store listing: a free Demo tier, then Basic $99 a month, Pro $249 and Enterprise $499, all in USD every 30 days, each paid tier with a 30-day free trial. Demo is a working plan rather than a countdown: 2 collections sorted round the clock, 10 recipes, 2 managed collections, 10,000 serves a month and a re-sort every 60 minutes, with search, recommendations and post-purchase included.
Which tier do I actually need?
Start from serves and collections. Basic covers 25 sorted collections and 100,000 serves a month. Above that, the listing as read on 3 October 2026 pairs the $249 Pro card with 1,000 collections and unlimited serves and the $499 Enterprise card with 100 collections, 1 million serves, A/B testing and a connector API, but the Pro card's own heading says 'Everything in Pro, plus', which suggests the two lists are swapped. If A/B testing or the API decides it for you, get the tier confirmed in writing before you pay.
How many serves do I get on a paid plan?
Since the cards were rewritten, they say: 10,000 a month on the free Demo, 100,000 on Basic, and 1 million a month and unlimited on the two upper cards; which of those two belongs to $249 and which to $499 is exactly what the mislabelled cards leave open. In September the paid cards published no serve number at all. Use the 30-day trial to measure your own volume.
Does Dynasort need changes to my Shopify theme?
Not for collection or product-option sorting. Dynasort's FAQ, read on 22 October 2026, says both run entirely through Shopify's APIs, so nothing is added to the theme. Search re-ranking and recommendations are different: each is added once in the theme editor as an app block or app embed.
What happens if I uninstall Dynasort?
The same FAQ (read 22 October 2026) says uninstalling removes the app and its storefront blocks entirely, and each sorted collection has a Revert To sort order (best selling, manual, newest and so on) that it falls back to when you disable it. Billing runs through Shopify; cancelling is uninstalling from the Shopify admin.
