FRAUDULENT COMPANY!
I agreed to $20/month for the app. They have been charging my credit card for $49.99/month for 3 months and refuse to reimburse. Then they tell you that you need to add $$ to your shipping account - In fact for Canadians using Fedex you do not use these funds and they still have not refunded the $$ that I put into my shipping account in the app. They have customer Service until you are signed on, and then its almost impossible to get through to someone.
DO NOT GET THIS APP!

Horrible experience, constant issues with the log-in and with orders not uploading. Perfect example of an app that was good until the startup was purchased by a bigger company.

This is the worst app and customer service possible. Absolutely disgusting. Shipconnect does'nt work half the time, have to refresh the page all the time as it w on't load, always have to manually push orders to be downloaded even thou it's set up on automatic but full of errors and worst of all they can't generate a proper custom invoice . Don't include prepaid tax, shipping or discounts on it so for Europeean brands is an absolute no go.

Very very buggy. Used to be great. If anyone can recommend an alternative please do so. This software is a mess.

They almost have worse service than Shopify. Almost. Not worth the ever-increasing-amount of money. Better platforms for cheaper. Wish the FTC would stop Auctane from buying up all their competitors, gutting the service and jacking up the rates.

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.

The app works great when it works, but when it glitches and your shipping company charges you 30,000 for labels that were made by mistake, Shipstation is dismissive and slow to respond, let alone correct the issue.

Very very dissapointed in their level of service.

Terrible app. We often have issues with orders not uploading. ShipStation Support can take days to begin investigating issue. Huge headache!

Love it when it works. But it doesn't always work! Lots of bugs and lots of down time unfortunately.
