ShipBob Fulfillment
All reviews
Shipbob picked up our fulfillment when we outgrew our capacity and interest to continue doing it ourselves. Their integration with Shopify works nicely, has continuously improved, and the suite of related apps lets us focus on other parts of growing our business. I think Shipbob is a great fit for D2C companies shipping products that don't require ultra specific handling. Less so if custom packaging is required or items are fragile; still do-able at Shipbob, but their model favors simple-item-in-box shipments
Shipbob constantly sets for feature improvement which is important. They have many locations in the US, also other countries which help for international brand to establish more markets. There network of last mile and their affordable fulfilment are helpful to grow a brand business. My Merchant success incharge Chetan is very knowledge and good communicator, good one!
Good app, works well and the support team is very responsive as well.
We worked with SB for more than a Year. Must say it wasn't a smooth process on either side of the equation, however we were able to make it work and now it look one of the best choice we did for our business. Great work behind the scene from our Costumer Representative Chetan, able to connect us and have a quick turnaround when issue came up. Definitely recommended as Fulfilment option
Great app. Works seamlessly and super easy to onboard with the Shipbob team and my Implementation Specialist- Ankit Gupta. Thomas Dawson Dalkin&Co
We have worked with various 3PLs but have had the best experience with Shipbob. We love working with our account manager Samantha Diapolo, we always receive excellent communication especially during an emergency situation. I give this 4 stars because we are still working through some tech issues but will be happy to update once this is all resolved.
ShipBob has been a great app and I recommend it to anyone looking for a 3PL app. Customer support is always very helpful. The app itself is pretty intuitive once you learn the ins and outs of it and fulfillment times are very good. It really helped me take my business to the next level!
Shipbob has made all our fulfillment process SO simple and easy. As a merchant located in Canada fulfilling mainly to the USA, this has been extremely important. We are now shipping to USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and UK through Shipbob and it's been super easy. On top of that, their support team has been there every step of the way - including when I made a few pretty big errors myself. Everything is quickly answered and resolved. Thank you Shipbob!
Helpful, informative and effective - our implementation manager Jordan held our hand every step of the way !
Installation was a breeze, order ingestion lightning-fast, and tracking updates impressively swift. Their value-add features, including inventory sync and customizable rules, have significantly streamlined our workflow. However, what truly sets ShipBob apart is their exceptional technical support team, with a special shoutout to Ankit Srivastava and Chetan Mehrotra. These dedicated individuals have gone above and beyond, consistently providing us with invaluable assistance and support. They've been there for us every step of the way, even scheduling daily Zoom meetings to ensure everything runs seamlessly.
Samantha DiPaulo, Ashley Pakenham, the ShipBob B2B team and many others truly care about our business and who we are. Not only that but they almost feel like my long time friends at this point. Can’t say enough good. Yes we’ve had our challenges and mess ups but i do believe they really care to improve.
Good integration. No issues so far. Good fulfilment centre.
Really impressed with the both the app and the shipbob team. Switching 3PLs always feels risky, but incredibly glad we did. A few of the highlights - Multiple warehouse spread across the country - Ability to send inventory to a single warehouse and have it be automatically distributed - Our fulfillment costs are about $2-3 less per order now - Really high fulfillment accuracy. Previous 3PL had an error rate of about 0.5% and Shipbob it at least 10x less. - Great software. Really easy to create digital bundles, add products together - Inventory analytics and visibility through the software to forecast how long supply is remaining. - Auto-shipping speed upgrades if a warehouse gets overwhelmed and they miss their SLA. This is really nice b/c it gives our customer service team some peace of mind if order get shipped out a day late. - Easy to get reimbursements for lost product or packages. - Good EDI integrations if you do B2B or wholesale
Ease of installation 10/10 Speed and reliability of order ingestion 10/10 Tracking upload speed 10/10 Value-add features like inventory sync, rules, and order processing delay 10/10 Technical support 7/10 but when you get your volume orders up, then you get a merchant care specialist assigned to your account and the experience becomes 10/10.
ShipBob has been an absolute disaster to work with (moved over to them in March 2023). They consistently ship my products out without sufficient packaging and void fill, resulting in damaged goods and bad customer experiences. (I sell books and magazines—predictable shapes and sizes, so this should be easy!) Despite numerous promises that they will address the problem and follow very clear instructions on how to pack my products properly, they are still doing a terrible job. In addition, their interface is very slow and poorly designed. The one star is that they are fast at getting shipments out the door, but obviously, that's because they seem to toss everything into a box without any concern.
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY TO FULFILL YOUR PRODUCTS!! I have used shipbob for over 2 years now and thought they were decent, minor issues but nothing crazy. Until one day out of the blue they told me they could no longer ship my product because of some sort of policy, BUT THEY HAD ALREADY BEEN SHIPPING THIS ITEM FOR ME FOR MONTHS to thousands of customers. They stopped shipping out any of my orders so I had no way to fulfil orders product to thousands of pending orders. The customer support is ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE, I found a new warehouse within 1 day and have been trying to get shipbob to ship my inventory from their warehouse to my new fulfilment centre AND THEY HAVE NOT EVEN SHIPPED IT YET! IT'S BEEN OVER 3 WEEKS SINCE I'VE ASKED THEM TOO!!! My business has lost hundreds of thousands of dollars and I've had to pause all marketing and refund orders that Shipbob could not fulfill. PLEASE NEVER USE THIS COMPANY! You are much better off using Ship Dudes or Ship Monk - much better shipping and customer service experience overall. I am at a loss for words on how terrible this company is and how terrible they treat their customers and business they work alongside. Do yourself a favor and use someone else! -Riley
I wish I could leave zero stars! Beware! The damage has already been done to our business. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere unless you are looking for a shipping company that cannot ship!! 10+ days for fulfillment during the holidays, mispicked damage and lost parcels, inventory processing delays, the list goes on. They use OSM worldwide for their affordable pricing plan which still ends up being $14-20 for packages that we would normal ship first class for under $6. They claim free dunnage and packed with care but we had to submit claims every day for damaged deliveries. Our customers were furious and our customer service team worked over time by the damage to our business has been immeasurable. We are no on day 12 of waiting for our inventory to ship back to us. AGAIN THIS IS A SHIPPING COMPANY THAT CANNOT SHIP! Customer service is outsourced, slow, and just “escalates” with no resolution. I can keep going on all day with the immeasurable headache shipbob has caused. Their management is pathetic. Their warehouse employees are lazy. This company will not last if only the truth got out. BEWARE *UPDATE Our inventory was returned by ship Bob. Everything was thrown into boxes, including the glass products. We filed a claim and waited 120 days they took zero responsibility and denied our claim. Shocker. We are filing a lawsuit.
Shipbob is an absolute nightmare. I have never dealt with a company with such poor customer service. It takes weeks to resolve issues that are mistakes on their end. We have had consistent issues with them entering significantly incorrect product dimensions and weights. This has resulted in customers being quoted shipping rates 5-8 times higher than they should be. To make it worse, their customer service is taking weeks to fix each issue. The most recent issue took 6 weeks, just to get them to correct incorrect product dimensions (customers can't edit product dimensions or weights). For anyone considering using Shipbob, I would strongly encourage you to look at alternative options.
AVOID SHIPBOB LIKE THE PLAGUE! They catfish you wish low shipping fees (at first my average cost to ship sat at around $7), and storage fees - however every time they receive a new shipment they give a NEW pick spot and NEVER consolidate, so you pay triple in my case in some instances.... the method of working out shipping fees magically changed after 6 months, doubling my shippings. Despite this - You cannot get your stock out without crazy costs and they will not allow you to pick up, you must pay to have it shipped at their exorbitant costs (which is the reason to move away in the first place). Customer service is awful (based in India and impossible to have a phone call with anyone. They advertise there is a chat service and number, but these are rarely manned and the chatbot is useless. I know 4 other brands who have fallen for Shipbob's over-promising/under-delivering sales pitch and all have either moved or are in the process of leaving. The biggest mistake this financial year was onboarding ShipBob. The one thing they do well is pick/ship quickly.
