Shipping automation software for eCommerce businesses

About ActionShip

ActionShip is a comprehensive shipping automation software designed to streamline the order fulfillment process for eCommerce businesses. The platform offers a fully automated shipping flow, reducing manual work and human error. It allows users to download, filer and place orders in the appropriate order queue, setting the shipping method and weight. The software then automatically updates the tracking number to the respective marketplaces once the label is generated.

ActionShip's order management capabilities provide users with a centralized view of all orders and related information on a single screen. Businesses can filter orders and automate actions, managing them through customizable queues. The software also allows users to create shipping presets with multiple profiles, remember weight and dimensions for future orders, and bulk update shipping methods and options. The batch shipping feature enables address verification, rate quotes, one-click label printing, order content scanning, and customizable pick lists and packing slips.

The platform's automatic rate shopping functionality compares multiple carriers and shipping methods to find the best option at the lowest rate, based on delivery date, weight, and dimensions. ActionShip also integrates with QuickBooks, allowing users to map listings to QuickBooks items, automatically sync orders, and manage inventory across multiple warehouses and selling channels. The software's comprehensive reporting capabilities provide valuable insights into sales, inventory, and shipping costs, empowering businesses to make informed decisions and optimize operations.

You get what you pay for! Low costs and solid functionality, but at the expense of common bugs and issues. We'll stay on Teapplix since we have an in-house technical team, but look forward to upgrading to ChannelAdvisor or something more enterprise in nature.

Pros

It's dirt cheap for a working Order Management System. Low cost monthly charges provide a portal where you can link your accounting software to various retail platforms including Amazon FBA or FBM, Bigcommerce, Shopify, Etsy, eBay, etc. You can dropship orders from eBay to Amazon FBA with the click of a button, or select to fulfill them locally.

Cons

This software breaks very, very often and is fairly non-intuitive. Be prepared for endless troubleshooting and poorly designed UIs. If you try to call support, they're fairly unhappy you called. Email support seems okay, but there's a lag in response time, of course.

A flawed beauty

Reviewed on 2024/09/25

Pros

Its a relatively simple layout, and it links to Quickbooks and WooCommerce for easy order management and book keeping.

Cons

The search functions can be cumbersome and hard to navigate. There are a ton of different fields available to search, but only a few of them are relevant when you need to search a customers order.

Cancelling orders and updating their status was confusing to figure out. I had to search for a help guide to find the cancellation button on orders.
They need to make the menu easier to navigate for common order requests.

Not the best. I started at a company that was using this software and I eventually convinced them off of it. Unfortunately, it just wasn't for our business model. It might be for yours, so at least give it the free trial and check it out.

Pros

What I liked about it was that - eventually - the orders did end up getting shipped out. Putting aside the getting there, they did get out.

Cons

It's SO user unfriendly.. I wanted to like it but if you plan on growing as a company to more than 5-10 orders a day, this is not the software for you. Very manual
