ShipStation seems to provide the bare minimal compared to others in the industry. I would rate it one of the lowers in terms of shipping service providers.

In my experience, they both are bad. I believe ShipStation was the better option when we moved over, but I do not believe it has not kept up with changes on Shopify.

ShipStation is above and beyond all of its competition. I have tried them all. I also need the ability to ship things, first-class, with just a stamp (no tracking), and Pirate Ship and anything else like Pirate Ship does not have that feature. ShipStation is the only one …

Before using ShipStation, we used Stamps.com. Stamps.com is still around and is actually the parent company of ShipStation. The only difference is they deal specifically with the Post Office I believe, while the ShipStation software can use almost any provider. Stamps.com …

I have used stamps.com's Windows based software and was introduced to shipstation after stamps.com purchased Shipstation. It's good for printing postage, but does not sync orders from different marketplaces like shipstation does.

I've tried built-in shipping fulfillment options, like Shopify's or BigCommerce's, and I have tried other third-party options, like Shippo. None have stood up to the pure flexibility of ShipStation's options. They're worth every penny, and the fact that you easily save enough, …

We selected ShipStation because it has custom store/marketplace integrations available that allowed us to connect to a service others couldn't. These integrations seem to be growing and that custom integration is now available out-of-the-box.

We use BrightPearl so I had the options down to ShipWorks and ShipStation. I was voted against on ShipStation because the price is a little higher so we started with ShipWorks. After 2 months we cancelled ShipWorks and moved to ShipStation and we haven't looked back.

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.

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.

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.
