I used ShipMonk as my 3PL for a silver jewelry company for almost 2 years... To start with, the onboarding was really frustrating and took WAY longer than the expectation that was set. Then we spent weeks changing the processes because their fulfillment team could not comprehend the proper way to package our simple items in their boxes correctly, despite documents and videos being provided. We stuck with it because we figured it was an "investment" that would pay off once we got it right. So we did stick with it, until I had virtually no other choice than to cancel them and get my inventory back due to the amount of my items that went "missing" while in their possession. My customers would regularly receive empty boxes, even though our in-house team packaged them and sealed them. This caused a lot of issues and multiple poor reviews. AND, when we finally received all of our remaining inventory back, not only was everything extremely dusty, but DOZENS of items were missing from the expected line sheet that they provided. Unfortunately, I think their staff is ruining what could be a great service, because the platform was excellent. But they have crooked staff in the fulfillment department and some lazy/uninterested staff in their customer service department. If left 2 stars because I have to give them credit for their great Shopify integration and really user friendly dashboard and because, once we finally got the process down, the fulfillment was working well. But, until they get rid of their bad apples, prevent the dust from piling up on the products in the warehouse, and hire some customer service reps that actually care, they will continue to get poor feedback.
I would highly recommend not using ShipMonk. I'm providing 2 stars because their UI is great, and the sync with Shopify is helpful so that we in theory don't have to update our inventory on a consistent basis (which in reality is not the case). If you have under 100 SKU's they may be a fit, we've been using them for a few years and everything was fine until we really starting scaling our inventory levels and SKU count. Then came receiving issues, lost inventory (and by default overselling to our customers and having to cancel orders), and sending the wrong product to our customers - as in not even inventory sold from our store (we sell dog merch, our customers have received human supplements, perfume, etc). I had to track down and reach out to the other stores separately to make sure they were aware their product (sometimes worth $100+) was being sent out to the wrong customers so they could also file claims. The lost inventory has been the biggest headache for us. When I say lost inventory I mean hundreds of units (some SKU's have a >6% shrink which ShipMonk claims is normal) that have gone missing within a few months, and no reimbursement with often what I would consider odd rational - they couldn't store everything in a single bin, therefore it's not their fault. Money drain! I will say different from other ShipMonk reviews I have mostly had good experiences with their CX team, and I think the bigger issue is that there are larger wide scale systemic issues with ShipMonk and the CX team is either not equipped to handle or they truly have no idea what happened and that's that. My negative experiences have been when agents will resolve a ticket when the issue is not fixed, so I've had to reopen tickets just to make sure they actually respond. Overall - I would keep shopping, not worth it.
