OMS Office Master System vs. ShipStation

OMS is created for wholesale businesses and is used by many of the companies in our industry. It is apparent that their features have been carefully developed over time to address the business needs for B2B companies. Our company has thousands of SKUs and a unique pricing structure, and OMS was able to handle our unique needs. We would have liked the software to be more modern and to have a better user flow. Importing and exporting data requires a person with experience to handle.

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.

• Ih helps in inventory management, thus providing detailed updates on how much stock in availabe and at any moment can retrieve the detailed reports.

• 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.

• OMS software been around for a long time and they have thoughtfully added features for wholesale businesses. However, the software is in need of an update that makes the software easier to use and more modern.
• The user flow could be improved and the layout could be more intuitive. It is inconvenient to change between modules. It takes time for team members to become familiar with the software.
• We appreciate the ability to import/export data, however we wish that this feature was easier to use for the team. Currently only a few members with technology experience are able to use the feature.

• 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.

Its a very quick platform and being web based it does not require install for say viewing order's shipping status. For the shipping itself, there is a app that grabs data in near real time. Its an easy install and I have had next to no issues with the shipping aspect of the app.

We highly recommend OMS because of their customer support. When evaluating their software, we had a sales associate and a programmer walk us through the software and answer questions. They allowed us to demo the software at our offices. During onboarding, we received live training form a knowledgeable team member. We were happy that phone calls were always answered quickly. In fact, they reached out to us multiple times to make sure that we were set up and happy.

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.

OMS system stacks up due to feature of using automation, data collaboration, data security,ease of sceduling meetings.

ShipStation is mainly used for automating and streamlining our shipping process. It doesn't track inventory or deal with fulfillment. ShipBob, on the other hand, is a fulfillment and shipping provider. (in addition to automation) Because our e-commerce business is still small and we're operating from our brick-n-mortar store, we don't have a need for ShipBob at the moment.
