What Merchants Think

Overall, merchants have mixed feelings about ShipStation. It receives praise for its functionality in streamlining shipping processes across multiple platforms, but it is also criticized for technical issues and poor customer service. Many users appreciate its user-friendly interface, efficient order management, and the time it saves them in the shipping process, while others report frequent bugs, billing issues, and lose faith in its support system.

Key Strengths

  • Seamless integration with multiple sales platforms (e.g., Shopify, Etsy)
  • User-friendly interface that enables efficient order management
  • Automation features that save time and streamline the shipping workflow
  • Ability to manage multiple sales channels on one platform
  • Helpful customer service, usually via specific representatives who go above and beyond

Common Concerns

  • Poor customer service and support response times
  • Buggy and sometimes unreliable app performance
  • Billing issues, including overcharging and unauthorized charges
  • Troubles with specific integrations, such as with Shopify
  • Concerns about recent decreases in app reliability compared to past performance

Final Thoughts

ShipStation is highly valued for its ability to integrate multiple sales platforms and automate shipping processes, saving time and effort for businesses. However, frequent technical issues and criticism of customer support have diminished its reputation among some users. For those who come to rely on its functionalities, it is a powerful tool, though prospective users should be cautious and aware of its limitations.

This app will use to be great. It now crashes during each print attempt. You have to login and reset multiple times per day. Submitting tickets to directly to ship station results in fast responses but no results. This is no benefits to either party. Learn how to print labels Stationstation and stop crashing. Stop releasing new UI's and focus on basics that improve time. As you can see I have been using this app for many years and they can and should be doing better..

Horrible app, took our money for using our own courier without notifying us. VERY DODGY! Aussie's steer clear of this one!

I will update my review if the support team has a resolution for printing more than 20 labels at a time. If we print more it will skip or miss orders. we called and they sent documents for us to read regarding our printer. Do we have a printer issue or shipstation issue? contact [email protected]

Buyer beware! I am on a trial acct still and its been a terrible experience-They charged me for my last 2 labels over & over again by saying I needed more & more funds and kept charging my credit card-but even though they charged me for 1 label 3 times in funds-I never received the label-I am unable to print any labels-there was not actual label or tracking created and yet they charged me 3 times for this label and then the same thing happened with another label rt after that-they currently owe me a refund of $221.08 You cannot get a human on the phone & I opened a "case" 2 days ago and no reply or refund so I will have to pursue thru credit card company. It's really bad-they charge you all sorts of charges for labels you never get & then try to get the refunds when it was their fault. Not ok -Stay far far away.

This app has been billing me for years and I can't get them to stop. I've even tried cancelling my credit card but because it's linked through Shopify they are able to bill the new card number somehow. Do not download this app or do their free trial. You'll be committed for life.

Avoid this garbage program. So many bugs and the customer service is embarrassingly abysmal.

Our new 3PL uses this app for shipping labels so unfortunately we are stuck with them at least for now. Since moving to them I've seen a 20% increase in my shipping costs. They use Stamps.com for USPS which has shitty rates and you can't switch to shippo or pirate ship. You can hook up your own accounts if you have them for UPS, Fed Ex, DHL and some others but none that handle USPS. I'm also not in love with the way the app works and the customer service is non-existent. I want to add a rule for the packers to add an insert for orders auto-tagged in shopify as first time buyers but I can't get it to work and I can't get anyone to help. i'm spending way too much of my time on this app.

No customer support

With its recent updates, quantities are not imported from Shopify and thus return labels cannot be created. It's frustrating and there is no apparent fix!

This must be the worst app I've ever seen. The support is so useless they always blame it on you instead of fixing the app or give you "possible reasons" with no solutions or they ignore you completely. The app has so many issues from not importing discounts, wrong custom invoices not matching the order totals, not dispatching the orders, have to update the platforms manually etc etc . Absolute disgusting!

Pretty horrible app, to say the least... First off the app is EXTREMELY buggy. It only works when it wants to. What's worse, is there is no customer support for the bugs or for when the app inevitably overcharges you. I have multiple support tickets that have sat unanswered for over a month each at this point. Do not expect any resolve from ShipStation. They do not care about you, or the issues with their application. There are much better apps out there, give them a shot first!!!
