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.

I had the pleasure of working with Chelly during the on boarding process. I would like to say thank you for your patience, and help for setting me up for success with this platform.

ShipStation is amazing! I have relied on them to print affordable return shipping labels, since that option is currently not available to me in Canada. They are also a more affordable alternative option to Shopify shipping. So far, so good.

I worked through the implementation process for ShipStation with Chelly Bell. She has been very helpful giving tips on navigating as well as setting up specific setting for our application. She is very knowledgeable about the product and has a good sense of humor. Thanks Chelly!

We had our onboarding call with Chelly today for our new ShipStation setup, and I have to say it was one of the best onboarding experiences I’ve ever had. We’ve been using ShipStation in our Canadian store for over five years, and somehow she still managed to show us things we never knew existed. Her knowledge was impressive, but what really stood out was how she shared it. Chelly brought a warm, genuine, human touch to the entire session while still being completely professional. Every question we had was answered clearly and confidently, and she never made us feel rushed. Instead, she encouraged us, made learning easy, and kept the whole experience positive and enjoyable. It’s rare to come across someone who brings that mix of expertise, kindness, and energy to their work. Chelly did, and we’re truly grateful. Highly recommend her — she made a real difference for us today.

This app has been game changing for our business. Fast, automated & makes 0 mistakes. Gets rid of human error and slow delivery service portals. Andrej from support is so helpful - set up a call to help us automate our shipping rules and products. Thank you so much!

ShipStation has been the perfect system for our e-commerce business with a limited number of tangible SKUs we ship to customers in the US and Canada. The software is user friendly and very affordable compared to all of the other systems I reviewed. The onboarding process was awesome. Chelly Bell was my account rep and my weekly calls with her resolved every issue and question I ever had. Thanks ShipStation and Chelly!

Switching to ShipStation has been the best decision we’ve made this year. The platform is incredibly versatile, user-friendly, and easy to navigate. It gives us full visibility and control over all our shipping needs. We’re very satisfied with the experience, and their customer support has been excellent!

Shipstation has a lot of Shopify connectivity. They also have great customer service who have always been helpful with letting me know what options our companies have, based on the service levels they purchase from Shipstation & Shopify

Update: Justin worked to get this resolved, and Shipstation has now refunded the amount charged. I will continue to use Shipstation. Their software glitched (reviewed and admitted by the support staff), which removed a decimal point. This resulted in a customs charge being drawn from our bank account of almost $6000 instead of $60. They refuse to rectify or return the money.

We have been happy with ShipStation so far. The setup process wasn't too complicated, and it has been a nice upgrade from Stamps.com. It is a nice option for larger businesses that have outgrown Stamps.

Actually really good. Had a lot of concerns and been struggling with a shipping provider before I gave it a test (second time in 2 years). Aakriti did a great job onboarding us. Big influence on us to stay and configure all setting with this app.

We are very pleased with the features that ShipStation offers. We would especially like to thank Andrej for his outstanding support—without his help, we don’t think we would have been able to start using the service successfully. Thank you very much, Andrej!

Support is good and the system is user friendly. We have found it useful when shipping internationally, as the rates are cheaper and it integrates with Shopify.
