FastSpring will be well suited for a company that needs simple checkout solution. As a bonus, you'll get a nice checkout flow. If you're a company that doesn't have the time to concentrate and becomes an expert in data security, currency conversion, global tax management, or fraud detection – this will be a great fit. It's appropriate for anyone who doesn't want to waste time on managing support for their e-commerce business.

• Launch support was lacking. They did help with initial setup but after that, it was tough to get questions addressed.
• Reporting is robust but complicated.
• Having support staff on both coasts.

• FastSpring uses 2 separate GUIs for store owners. Some features work with one GUI implementation and not the other one.
• Some other providers do provide lower credit card processing fees, compared with FastSpring. But I have been very happy dealing with FastSpring overall in terms of support and overall usability - so I am happy to continue using FastSpring. If I was selling 10x or 100x my current sales volume, I might consider a change, but I have no plans to change at the present time.

Merchant e solutions has a truly awful admin website and is clunky to use. There are almost no options for customization. Bluesnap allows configuration to fit our needs and a much better customer service experience.

I have been using FastSpring consistently for the past nine years, and I cannot now recall what other products I considered when I selected FastSpring. I am not currently aware of any other company that would handle my type of business any better than FastSpring.

• With the addition of this new "Risk Assement Fee", they have CREATED a problem for me in that I have to find a new e-Commerce platform. We had a good ROI with them for 7 years but that has changed now.
