What do you like best about Shiptheory?

The support staff are incredible, and we also appreciate the many automation features + pick, pack and ship function. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shiptheory?

I don't think there is anything I dislike, only improvements on good ideas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shiptheory solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is improving our pick, pack and shipping flow. Since the systems we have currently, until we need a WMS, do not meet this need. We were struggling to process simple orders in less than 2-3 minutes per order, and this was becoming a bottleneck. We needed a system that was as simple as a few scans, and it is shipped.

What do you like best about Shiptheory?

We've been with Shiptheory for well over a year. Everything works smoothly to the point we never need to reach out to them. Today, we had a change we needed to implement, and Henry (their 1st Line Tech Support) was on it in mere minutes, top man!

All to often these tech services are your best friend when onboarding you, then you never hear from them again. However Shiptheory clearly value their existing customers and have a great support team member in Henry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shiptheory?

It would be great if you could fulfill all the shopify orders direct in shiptheory, along with printing all the individual packing slips. Like a: select the following orders, then bulk process them. Not a gripe, the functions we use it for work seamlessly, Shiptheory has saved our team a lot of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shiptheory solving and how is that benefiting you?

Removes the repetitive work of having to manually input customer shipping details from Shopify to the courier. Now it's all automated!

Prevents any admin errors when entering customer details.

Makes printing shipping labels a breaze/ Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Shiptheory?

Shiptheory has saved us many man-hours by automating our shipments and can be customised to fit our diverse business needs. The ongoing support to help with any issues that arise is very helpful, Henry has been fantastic recently with sorting out our shipping rules to acccommodate a new carrier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shiptheory?

The only downside we have found is not being able to specify product quantity limits when setting shipping rules - we have specific products (liquids) that are quantity limited through our main carrier, but we can only specify by weight which discriminates against the non-liquid products too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shiptheory solving and how is that benefiting you?

Saving us time! Has cut down our booking on time from 10+ hours a week to virtually nothing and has allowed us to continue our business growth without having to worry about allocating additional man-hours for tasks like booking our shipments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Shiptheory?

Shiptheory has been an amazing substitution tool for us. We managed to get all our stores connected and get our new integration partner set up within a few days. We encountered several issues with some external issues such as IOSS integration and product synchronisation however Josh Hodder, who is our account manager, was able to continuously work with us and resolve all the issues. What also helped is that he had previous experience working with our shipping courier as well as how to quickly setup other settings within our dashboard which streamlined our efforts. When it came to communication with partners outside of Shiptheory, Josh had no issue continuing the communication with our partners in order to resolve issues regarding integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shiptheory?

Shiptheory would be an even better platform if it could have a more seamless pick and pack process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shiptheory solving and how is that benefiting you?

Shipping and being able to use a new shipping partner which we were not able to use with our previous platform. Also, we have multiple regions that we need to serve which shiptheory handles quite well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Shiptheory?

The ability to automate and schedule the creation of labels based on user definable rules, being able to route different orders to different printers automatically.

Integrates with more meaningful systems and carriers than any other platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shiptheory?

Need a better way to view/search/filter for orders that have been printed already. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shiptheory solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have orders from multiple platforms which require allocation to different carriers for delivery and different printers for internal processing, Shiptheory lets us automate all of these things with easy to use, user-definable rules. This saves us hours every week, time better spent packing orders and getting them in the hands of our customers! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Shiptheory?

We've been scoping with ShipTheory for some time now, and they could not have made it easier for us to be confident in their abilities. Orlando has been brilliant in getting us lined up, and Rupert has been ace in getting us over the line with our international shipping requirements. We're not yet live with them, but have every confidence that it'll line up once we gte going. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shiptheory?

Nothing worthy of note here - we've not had any issues so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shiptheory solving and how is that benefiting you?

We ship a lot each month, and have a lot of collect in store titles as well. We are moving from a custom system with some strong postage adaptations to Shopify, so we're looking for a partner technology that can accomodate what we've been doing so far, with some extra features to make it even easier for us.

What do you like best about Shiptheory?

The support is incredible. Everytime you think you've found a function that is missing that you need, there is always a way to do it. I always ask support and they are very helpful. Henry was particularly helpful with helping me to quickly update product data, saving me days of time. This is just one example of the level of support on offer here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shiptheory?

Sometimes it can be hard to find certain functions within the system, but the support is incredibly efficient and helping to resolve any issues I've had. It more than mitigates this slight negative. As an admin, I would love to be able to remove actions from the dashboard menu for certain user groups - to avoid further human error in the shipping process - but honestly, this is a tiny negative point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shiptheory solving and how is that benefiting you?

Saves time, removes several points of failure on the shipping process, and a whole lot of manual data entry. But yes, it saves time - and that's worth far more money than it costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Shiptheory?

Whenever I have a question, query, or need assistance, the Shiptheory team has always been incredibly helpful, but Henry Forber truly stands out. Henry is exceptionally efficient with his rapid responces and is always polite. His support consistently goes above and beyond, making every interaction smooth and easy. Henry’s expertise and explainations make all the difference to someone who hasn't a clue what they're doing, and I can’t speak highly enough for all his help.

What do you like best about Shiptheory?

The sotware is easy to use and intergrates well with Shopify! Josh Hodder has been excellent with after sales support and setting up advanced rules to cater for our products and shipments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shiptheory?

None. Great product. Didnt realise that by default the product only prints a single label per order and need to configure the rules upfront. When setting the rules for handling insurance, one also neeeds to then change the setting in the advanced options of the carrier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shiptheory solving and how is that benefiting you?

It enables us to seamlessly intergrate shipping with our Shopify site and automate the printing of labels and picking lists. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Shiptheory?

I was very sceptical about using ShipTheory and thought it would be a nightmare and take weeks to set up. I was very wrong! The process has been extremely smooth and the whole team have been very quick to help with any issues we've had (which have been minimal and the amount you would expect with a new software). Very impressed with how simple the software is to use and absoloutely recommend to any business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
