I feel you should AVOID FLOSHIP AT ALL COSTS - in my experience, we have a USD 137,978 loss and counting; they have charged my card for $10,000+ without consent multiple times. I personally recommend AVOIDING THEM AT ALL COSTS. I was originally approached by Floship to provide fulfillment services for a Kickstarter campaign. After being provided a full cost simulation and in-person advice, it was my experience that all support disappeared once fulfillment should have begun. In my experience, our clients have been severely inconvenienced through ineffective and late shipping practices. I feel we have burned a significant amount of time and money in correcting this; to the extent that we will look forward to just shipping ourselves and/or using better alternatives such as Easyship in the future. I feel they do not provide any visibility to their costs which I believe are entirely inflated (e.g. more than $50 USD quoted as import tax for a $3 shipment). It is my experience that they need to provide receipts for their services charged. [...] In my experience, having not dealt with Floship for several months, they have now attempted to charge a card we removed from their website. I believe this implies that they keep your payment details stored separately and record your CVV and other sensitive information. I have since canceled the card since they haven't stopped, and we do not owe them any money. [...] I feel that Floship's complete hostility at the suggestion of any wrongdoing indicates the awful experience I feel you will also have if you work with them. It is also my belief that their responses do not attempt to address our concerns [...]. I feel our prior requests for support, transparency regarding postage receipts, and general work orders have been largely ignored until I spoke out publicly. [...]
Good for transferring over an existing site. Truth be told, I haven't used it for building a brand new site-- I know that this is a fairly common thing but I just never needed it. For what I've used it for, it has worked well. For a small business with anyone with a little bit of technical skill, it's surprisingly good.

I believe that all costs were hidden with 0 visibility. For example, I was charged a 3% transaction fee and 3% card fee with no other payment options. Shipping costs are provided to you up to 3 months later, but in my experience, no receipts are provided.
I feel that customer service is non-existent. In my experience, my emails went unanswered unless they are actively soliciting.
In my experience, additional services such as pick packing inflate costs drastically making our costs 60% underquoted.

We can't really choose anyone else and the cost/effort of moving all of the hosted data would be extremely large, and we just have to stick to them, and hope they improve service

We use Wix currently for our online store. It is nice and easy to use, but they don't offer the email domains as well (the last time we checked). They have pretty decent customization of the web page, but still limited. We're going to try it with GoDaddy, since we have other services from them already. It just doesn't make sense to pay two different companies for something we can do with one.

GoDaddy reduces our ROI by costing me in non-billable hours. I don't charge clients for sitting on the phone with tech support to power cycle the server or fix the php.ini file, so my $/hr takes a hit.
Their nickel&dime strategy requires I have an additional conversation with clients about their max recurring fees. Small as they are, I need approval for upping their bill. GoDaddy is only the cheap option if you don't value security, stability, or performance.
