ShipMonk | Order Fulfillment

I have been with Shipmonk for 2 years now. We are now working with a WONDERFUL happiness engineer, Ron T. He makes great efforts to understand the nuances of our brand. He is very communicative, polished and professional. It is really impressive to partner with someone like Ron, that also has the energy and knowledge to DRIVE our business. We are grateful for this partnership and to be assigned Ron T.

AN UPDATE WITH ANOTHER HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE:

i had to ship a wholesale order that weighs 60 lbs via USPS which normally would cost around $90 via USPS (nonnegotiated rates) , they charged me $527!!!
and the insane part is that since it was a wholesale order, the cost of shipping was TBD until the package was picked up by USPS which is too late. i call to let them know to intercept the package as i did not get a chance to approve this and the order i was shipping is not worth more than $250 in its entirety!!! but NO help.

this is an update to my previous onboarding experience which was another fail, the app works fine even though it overcharges but the minute you have an issue - they OVERBILL or just abandon you.

previous review: Horrible onboarding with so many details on their support pages and almost no syncing with shopify system - had to enter everything manually (they would have the SKU as the product name, the weight in ounces put in lbs), and then the receiving of products is miserable (they again overweigh products & overcharge on shipping and you cannot even edit to the right weight - an 8oz bottle could be weighed as 1 lb! Or even more! ) i regret sending them a whole stock, i should have started with a few items The team talks nicely and try to help but it feels like they are overwhelmed with their system and work flow themselves so the help they end up giving is subpar. in the end of the day, if i am outsourcing my shipping, you need to be a well oiled machine and a cheap alternative to in-house but they are anything but! Also our first big delivery with them was a big big big fail, we were overcharged with UPS because of their weight "errors"above - they split up 1 big order to 8 orders which were not packed professionally, they did a miserable job with taping up boxes and putting heavy items in a no-bubble plastic envelopes like true beginners and arrived to my client all destroyed.

Our Happiness Engineer Matthew S. was brilliant assisting us with a recent issue we had. He was quick to respond and was able to answer all our questions, and the process went very smoothly. We are very thankful for his help.
