Merchants describe this as a time‑saving game changer for higher‑volume, multi‑channel fulfillment. Bulk label creation, automation rules, and barcode‑based workflows significantly cut manual work, errors, and shipping costs. Integrations with Shopify, Amazon, eBay, and more are reported as stable over many years and scale to 100,000+ orders. Many highlight strong onboarding and ongoing support as key to successful setup and long‑term use.

Looks like a good app but for my parcels it would cost and extra 20%!
The platform, the service offerings, and the onboarding process and implementation sessions with Darren have all been nothing less than a 5-star experience. I'm looking forward to continued usage and development.
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.
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!
Shipstation has a stranglehold on shipping, so I still use them for some things. But they are exceedingly bad. For example, 19 days ago Shipstation changed international shipping defaults so that I am now covering duties and taxes for international shipments. But, they did not notify me or my team of this setting being defaulted to "on" all the time. The result is that I have accidentally incurred massive costs that were meant to be paid by my customers and that I did not account for. I'm still waiting on invoices to come in from my couriers to see what the total loss is.
I contacted their support and they showed me how to turn this off. But when I asked about why it was set to on for 19 days, and why no one notified me of this critical change to defaults; the best I got was an apology. I wonder how many users are unwittingly incurring these fees. The setting is burried well below the customs declaration in an area with obscure an infrequently used settings, so I suspect that many users are not aware.
Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback, and we’re truly sorry for the frustration you’ve experienced. We understand how unexpected duties and taxes can significantly impact your business, and we take concerns like this very seriously.
We did want to clarify one important point: the Delivered Duties Paid (DDP) option was not automatically enabled for merchants. This feature required an explicit opt-in through a Pendo in-app message. It’s possible that the prompt may have been missed or unintentionally dismissed, but we did not turn this setting on by default or make changes on behalf of users.
That said, we completely understand how easily something like this can be overlooked, especially during busy order periods. Your experience highlights the importance of ensuring feature changes and optional settings are communicated as clearly as possible, and we’re actively reviewing how we can make that even better.
Our team will be reaching out directly to discuss your situation and see what options we have to help make things right. If you have any immediate questions in the meantime, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We’re here to help!
If given the option, I would immediately discontinue using ShipStation. The platform suffers from persistent bugs and an ineffective support team that consistently fails to resolve reported issues.
In recent experience, even basic functionality—such as real-time synchronization with Shopify—frequently ceases without warning. No alerts or notifications are provided when sync failures occur, forcing users to detect problems reactively, often the following day. Manual intervention is then required to restore synchronization.
Overall, ShipStation delivers a highly unreliable and poorly maintained software solution that falls far below acceptable standards for e-commerce integration tools.
Hi there, thank you for taking the time to write your review! Our team has followed up with you via email to understand your surfaced pain points in greater detail. Hoping to hear back from you shortly!
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
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!
