Ordoro was easily connected to our eCommerce platform, and at the time, it was the only shipping platform that would sync with our system. Now ShipStation does as well, and from what I can see, they are VERY comparable. Highly recommend ordoro for ease of use, and the price …
We used and tried numerous platforms before landing with Ordoro. Pricing was a HUGE factor for us, but in addition to offering incredible pricing options, we couldn't help but acknowledge Ordoro's support team and their willingness to answer all of our millions of questions. …
We selected ShipStation because it has custom store/marketplace integrations available that allowed us to connect to a service others couldn't. These integrations seem to be growing and that custom integration is now available out-of-the-box.
ShipStation does one thing, shipping, and it does that one thing really well. You can definitely go out there and try to find software that handles both shipping and inventory, and that may work for certain businesses, but for mine, I've found it incredibly necessary to use the …
Ordoro is ideal for a company with multiple websites and/or sales channels that does both in-house shipping and has orders drop-shipped. Ordoro keeps orders and inventory in one central location, so you can manage orders, inventory, vendors, shipping, etc., all from one location. Creating and printing shipping labels is fast and simple. Ordoro's PO features and drop-ship integration with vendors has saved us a ton of time and hassle.
I do - and have - recommended them to other businesses. If they had taken care of the USPS pickup option and started supporting Rollo printers again I would have given them a 10. But a year with no resolution is unacceptable. Everything else about them is excellent. When I do have issues I'm usually able to contact someone via live chat and get it resolved. They are glitchy on occasion, but what piece of modern technology isn't.
Ordoro manages inventory across multiple platforms very well. If you sell an item on one channel, it reduces your told inventory and updates it across all of your other channels so you never risk going out of stock on an item.
Ordoro is awesome for bringing all of your orders into one central location which streamlines shipping processes. They also provide reduced shipping costs for most well-known shipping carriers.
Ordoro has incredible technical support and customer care team. Unlike other similar products, when you call Ordoro, you talk to a real live person who is never reading a script and always friendly and happy to help with any questions you may have.
For years users have requested UPS End of Day Report for Driver to Scan. Shipstation Refuses to offer this and it means that Claims with the carrier are next to impossible to process as there is no PROOF the carrier received your package.
Customer Service is Seriously Lacking within the last 6-12 months. Repeated outages, problems, and their front-tier support has no insight as to how long the system will be down. Poor Response times for even the most basic of issues such as error logs so our cart can troubleshoot from their end.
The Status Page is inaccurate. 5 of the last 6 times when we had major issues their status page shows as 100%. Not a reliable gauge of up-time.
If you take some time to learn what all the options and features of ShipStation do, it will save you time, energy and headaches as the system works for domestic orders and international orders for export. You have the ability to adjust info that auto populates into the customs forms for exporting goods and ShipStation solidly integrates with BigCommerce (outside of my previously disclosed web browser issue which could be the browser's fault)
In the six years we've used Ordoro, their customer service has been responsive, helpful, and knowledgeable. They have a robust support center for DIY answers, and honestly, we don't need support often because their product is so reliable. But when we need to reach a human for additional support, they have always been excellent.
I have quarterly calls with my account rep to discuss metrics and performance to ensure we are remaining consistent without fulfillment and transit times. He is super friendly and knowledgable. Whenever I have questions, if he can't answer them himself, he gets me in contact with the appropriate person almost immediately.
Other solutions may be more advanced or complete for certain tasks, however they are either more expensive or otherwise cover only partial operational requirements. For example, you may find a superior solution for inventory or fulfillment management, which will force you to work in two or more different systems, In addition the total cost will be usually more than you would pay for Ordoro. Some systems may be more complete than Ordoro, but at the same time too expensive for most small business. Ordoro has excellent customer service, superior to many similar, cost-effective, solutions.
