ShipStation

One of the best apps any store owner HAS TO HAVE! Has saved me 80% of the time I spent on manually filling our shipping labels and lowered my shipping costs dramatically. If you aren't using ShipStation, you need to!

best option available. tried a few others first. get this one ;)

For my snack subscription box company, I've tried other shipping apps in the Shopify store from Shippo to ShippingEasy and after comparing them all, ShipStation is by far the best in terms of rates and convenience. Their platform is easy to understand and has really useful features like Shipment Notifications after the shipment hits the mail stream. I HIGHLY recommend using ShipStation!

Saves my staff tons time. Well worth it if you ship many items a day.

We started with shipstation about one year ago and we had an interesting dilemma. We are located in Canada, most of our customers are in the United States and shipping with Canada Post is expensive (as compared to USPS). So we needed a solution where we could ship from our office in Canada (Vancouver Area) through Canada Post & DHL for our USA/Int Express. We also needed a way where we could ship with USPS from the post office across the border. The actual shipping from the USPS office across the border was a task in itself but we figured a great way to do it and reach out to me if you want more info on that. The problem was I could not figure out how to have two different countries to ship from with Canada Post/DHL/USPS in the mix. I am sure there must be a ton of solutions but the only one that was easy was Goshippo. I really liked goshippo and will recommend it to anyone but it doesnt have the automation and rules that shipstation has. I also tried shipping easy and Ordoro - Both great tools that had automation and easy built into it but couldnt duplicate the total ease of shipstation and the origin shipping as offered by goshippo. Well the answer is that with everything the easiest way was to maintain two shipstation accounts. The orders still feed into both easily and I can rule and automate the vast majority of the functions. The batch process works well and it was relatively easy to train our shipping team on the process. In conclusion, I give 5 stars for the quality of the product and the ease of automation. I would still like to see the tool allow for origin shipping that I need but for the price and the small inconvenience it really isnt that bad. I guess I could always use a more enterprise version of another app but we know that those developer fees can add up fast!
