ClickPost vs. ShipStation

When it comes to various shipments to be dispatched to multiple locations, it is always very difficult to rely on people that expertise is minimum in the process, every company works for profits so it's better to use a platform that decides best as per your needs and provides very options.

I do - and have - recommended them to other businesses. If they had taken care of the USPS pickup option and started supporting Rollo printers again I would have given them a 10. But a year with no resolution is unacceptable. Everything else about them is excellent. When I do have issues I'm usually able to contact someone via live chat and get it resolved. They are glitchy on occasion, but what piece of modern technology isn't.

• It's really easy to add/delete courier partners. Consumer communication is seamless as well.
• The reliability because it is super fast & super simple at the same time. Decreases the time to market.
• The courier allocation rules/recommendation rules - are smarter and more flexible than any other I have used in the market so far.

• Integration: It works so well I forget that it is a 3rd party solution sometimes.
• Automation: You can set nested rules based on order details, really cutting down on the little things that slow down your fulfillment process.
• Management: We almost never log into the admin side of BigCommerce thanks to ShipStation. ShipStation handles all of our day-to-day needs.

• The software freezes from time to time.
• None other

• For years users have requested UPS End of Day Report for Driver to Scan. Shipstation Refuses to offer this and it means that Claims with the carrier are next to impossible to process as there is no PROOF the carrier received your package.
• Customer Service is Seriously Lacking within the last 6-12 months. Repeated outages, problems, and their front-tier support has no insight as to how long the system will be down. Poor Response times for even the most basic of issues such as error logs so our cart can troubleshoot from their end.
• The Status Page is inaccurate. 5 of the last 6 times when we had major issues their status page shows as 100%. Not a reliable gauge of up-time.

If you take some time to learn what all the options and features of ShipStation do, it will save you time, energy and headaches as the system works for domestic orders and international orders for export. You have the ability to adjust info that auto populates into the customs forms for exporting goods and ShipStation solidly integrates with BigCommerce (outside of my previously disclosed web browser issue which could be the browser's fault)

I have quarterly calls with my account rep to discuss metrics and performance to ensure we are remaining consistent without fulfillment and transit times. He is super friendly and knowledgable. Whenever I have questions, if he can't answer them himself, he gets me in contact with the appropriate person almost immediately.

ClickPost in my observation is far better than Easyship. With the latter we faced a lot of issues such as improper courier tracking, no customer support, no explanations and the likes whereas with ClickPost these problems are completely gone with live courier tracking, allocation and management. So in summation ClickPost is a good solution for courier management.
