ShipStation , 747 則評價

I have been a loyal Shipstation user for almost 3 years now. Recently, all the features that I loved about Shipstation stopped working correctly. The main features I used from these app was to process my Shopify orders through Amazon Multichannel Fulfilment but recently it stopped moving the orders to Shipped Status leaving it in pending fulfillment never uploading the tracking numbers. I see many others complaining about this problem also. I now have 100's of customers emailing me every week asking for their tracking numbers because Shipstation is no longer functioning correctly.

Now this app sucks and creates more work for me that it would be for me to process my orders without this software! Like I said it used to be great but recently the features I used it for stopped working correctly.

I contacted customer support, it has been over a week now since I contacted them about my issue and it has still not been fixed. They told me that the escalated my claim to a developer and that it will take a while for them to get back to me with no ETA on when this could be fixed, which is just great! I don't have a long time to wait, I need to process my customer's orders NOW! Not in a few weeks... Plus in the meantime they want me to continue to pay for their app while it doesn't even work properly for me.

I will be finding a new way to handle all my shipments my moving forward because I need a company that cares about me and my customers.

We have been Ship Station customers for years, and apart from being somewhat buggy we have never had any real problems.
We changed to a Shopify store a year ago, and I need to integrate Shopify with Ship Station.
Now, I realize why there are all these complaints about their customer service.
I have requested a call back from a tech support person on two occasions and it hasn't happened either time. The first time they actually made an appointment to call, but never did.
The second time they were supposed to email to set up an appointment. It has been a week and no email.
The support we have received via Live Chat has been good, but should there be a serious problem with integration, I have no confidence that I could ever reach a live person to resolve it.
When we started with Ship Station, we had an account manager who helped us set it up. Now, like every other tech company, they think its OK to skimp on live support to save money. Unfortunately for them, there are lots of other options available now, and we will be looking at alternatives.

If you do a high volume of orders this is NOT the software to use. We are supposed to be processing 2k orders per day right now, however our scale connection in Shipstation has been broken for ELEVEN days! A support ticket was open and escalated and then nothing. This is frequently the case, there is no level of priority to serious issues.
Last year something changed in the scan to ship process which required an extra click. It took them over a month to finally come back with "That's just how the program works now".

I have edited my review in July 2023
Previously i thought
"This makes my life so much more simple.
Firstly, the support I have had is really good. An initial meeting was set up with someone and she supported me all the way.
I have very complex settings to enable me to automate my shipping method and weight, and the app is very customisable to your needs.
I can easily download all of my shipments before I confirm them, so I can count them and make sure they are correct first. It enables you to easily flag express orders and certain types of orders.
You can also use it to print out all of your packing slips, which is very useful. It also tells you if you have already printed them.
I used to use Royal mail click and drop, but this makes it so much easier.
It is working really well."

NOW HOWEVER I have had a number of shipments that I cant create a label for. I get strange error messages. Support are unable to help. Unfortunately unless it is a simple error, support have to escalate the query and usually this means you NEVER hear back with a solution. I usually give up at this point and have to go direct to Click and Drop and create a label there. On one occasion I was told i would have to wait 2 weeks!! To which I said to not bother as I needed it sorted by end of day.
FOR WEEKS I have had an issue with Ship Station Connect disconnecting, making it an utter nightmare to get my labels printed. Nobody is sorting it out. They tell you to do basic stuff which I have done and have had no effect, as I had thought. I keep getting stupid emails saying "let us know if you are still having issues".
It is really slow now too and keeps glitching
Plus in shopify it says your app is unsupported now and needs updating. What is going on?
I give up and am NOW LOOKING TO LEAVE TO A DIFFERENT APP.

does not work with shopify. Cost us ALOT of money, does not work with shopify. Cost us ALOT of money,

Used to be good. Now with Shopify locations, when I make a sale, my sales channel removes the sold stock from inventory. Once I ship the order through ShipStation, Shipstation ADDS INVENTORY BACK. and they are refusing to take blame and blaming Shopify. My inventory is getting messed up with every sale. I’m switching to Shipworks.

DO NOT USE. They have broken API functionality with Royal Mail and as a result up to 50% of my shipments went missing. The UK Manager just called me personally and admitted they know about this issue but thought people weren't losing 'too many.'

I wanted to install the app knowing the app's review is low,
but it's seem these low reviews are correct and it's not a good app at all, After connecting the app to my Shopify store, it never shows orders, first issue

This was the best app we had. Once it was updated IT IS COMPLETE TRASH!! Their support will take weeks with no help. A glitch a day will make you feel like you work for Ship station and not your own business.

ShipStation was just great until a few months ago. Then things started going wrong. The app began to lose track of our scale at random times and could no longer read weights. At first we thought it was the computer we were using so we bought a new one but it did not help. I tried downloading ShipStation Connect and reinstalling it but it still did not fix it. So we decided maybe it was our scale and replaced that as well. All to no avail, so I went to the forum to see if there was anyone else having issues. I found not one but many others having the same problem with the printer or the scale.

That was not the worst of it though. They made a change to the weights and included a decimal place in the ounces. This caused errors in more than one area and I submitted a request to support to tell me how to remove the decimal from my set up. Well, I got lectures, articles and repeated explanations as to why I needed that decimal. I was told that there was no way the decimal could have caused any problems and that it was there to stay.

And that was that - we immediately began looking for a new app to replace ShipStation. Absolute worst customer service and support ever experienced.
