## Reviews

### "ShipStation Is the Best e-Commerce Shipping Tool\!" — 5.0/5

> **Justin** | *July 25, 2022* | Warehousing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is by far the best e-Commerce tool for shipping and logistics. It helped me grow and run my business immensely. I was able to easily plug in the stores that I operate and it worked like a charm. It populated all the orders without any problem. I also liked the shipping discounts that it provided, as well.
> 
> **Cons**: I found it a little clunky to use at first. I had trouble navigating the orders. It is really a warehouse type of tool which I had to get used to. I had to learn to how to navigate using the software which didn't seem as intuitive as shipping on eBay or Etsy, for example.
> 
> ShipStation was an excellent tool to help grow my small business. I am able to see orders from multiple stores that I operate. I have shipped over 20,000 items and I am still shipping products using ShipStation. The

### "Great for Shipping" — 4.0/5

> **Anthony** | *February 28, 2025* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Shipstation integrates with almost all selling channels.
> 
> **Cons**: Doesn't allow for more nuanced manipulation of shipping labels and templates.
> 
> Overall good at helping up print shipping labels. Occasional downtime and lack of fast customer support keeps it from being 5 stars

### "Super greedy and unethical\!\!" — 2.0/5

> **Ryan** | *May 1, 2025* | Printing | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Discounted shipping rates&#10;Until recently, the reasonable monthly charges&#10;Decent user interface
> 
> **Cons**: Incredibly greedy\!&#10;They care very little about their customers&#10;Customer service is ok at best&#10;Tech support is terrible
> 
> They got incredibly greedy and care very little about their customers. Customer service is ok at best and tech support is terrible. The big issue is the MASSIVE price increase they are forcing on their smaller customers. In order to continue using their API, they are forcing everyone into a subscription that is 10x more expensive\!\! So many small businesses rely on that integration, which they have always included. Not only are they increasing the price, they only gave us a month's notice to find and implement an alternative. It's terrible\! For them not to accommodate their existing customers is awful and just shows how little they care about us. You may not need the integration and think it doesn't affect you. Next time they pull this nonsense, it may be with something you use and rely on. Think hard before you spend countless time and money getting set up with them. They did this once, they will do it again.

> **Miranda** | *February 3, 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Solved the issue of shipment management via the shipping prodivder.
> 
> **Cons**: The price jump between plans is really big for only a small set of features.
> 
> Overall have been using shipstation for a long time and it's part of our business process at this point. Without it we would be lost.

### "Would recommend" — 5.0/5

> **Jade** | *March 7, 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use and function. If ever an error appears there are notes to help suggest what the issue could be which is helpful
> 
> **Cons**: Customer service do not seem like they want to help - only needed to use them once
> 
> Platform is easy to use and amendments can be made easily to orders. &#10;Printing is straight forward and platform sorts into couriers nicely
