Pricing entry tiers: Intuitive Shipping at Free plan available, R+L Carriers Shipping at Free trial available.

Both apps are one-click installs from the Shopify App Store.

Intuitive Shipping typically suits early-stage and growth-mode teams based on its published review base (485 reviews). R+L Carriers Shipping typically suits early-stage and growth-mode teams based on its published review base (0 reviews). A larger review base generally means the app has been exercised at scale — relevant if you are processing high volume or handling enterprise compliance requirements.
Migration support varies by app and category. Intuitive Shipping and R+L Carriers Shipping both publish their export options on their marketplace listing pages (or in their support docs); some apps offer one-click import from competitors, others require CSV.

AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
