Overall Satisfaction with ShipStation
We ship approximately 7000 e-commerce packages a week and needed a shipping tool that was cloud-based, so we could ship from multiple warehouses. ShipStation provides an inexpensive solution that has some tools that the bigger more expensive solutions have without the expense and coding. It works well with ChannelAdvisor, Amazon, Amazon PRIME, eBay, and BigCommerce.
- A good cloud-based system for multi-warehouse transfers.
- Multi-use carriers, so we can shop rates.
- Filters, tags, and automation rules to make choices limited.
- Great customer service.
- We have over 40 users logged in, and no slow downs.
- It does not shop the best rates for you.
- It's only as automated as you can make a singular line of rules. It does not branch for automation rules.
- This is not its fault, but it is only as good as the data coming in. If you don't have dimensions already, it does not average sizes within an SKU.
- Positive impact: now we can communicate across warehouses.
- Positive impact: it allows for multiple waves of shipping throughout the day and keeps first in, first out.
- Positive impact on finances because less technology is used to communicate with warehouses in other locations.
ShipWorks has many more limitations, including needing its own server per location.
