Overall, my experience with Pirate Ship has been pretty good and is a valuable alternative to having to go to a retail store to pay for shipping.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Pirate Ship is a great service for sending out my packages at a reasonable rate compared to paying retail.

#### Cons

The shipping rate can be cheaper but I understand it can be only negotiated so much that would make everyone happy.

Overall I had a great experience with Pirate Ship and their customer service is top notch!

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

I run several ecommerce websites and I needed a shipping software that would pull orders in from each place, and some marketplaces so that I could run an efficient shipping department. Pirate Ship did that for me. Unfortunately, there was some sort of server level firewall issue with one of my WordPress sites that started blocking the connection. The Pirate Ship customer service team was amazing! They spent a lot of time helping me figure out the issue and explaining what was happening. In the end, it was something my ISP needed to fix and they weren't able to isolate the problem so I had to switch to a different shipping software. I was sad because it's rate to find a company that goes above and beyond like the Pirate Ship team did. I'm hoping I will be able to use them again in the future.

#### Cons

The issue I had wasn't with the software but with my ISP. It was blocking the connection and kept dropping the feed of orders.

#### Reasons for choosing Pirate Ship

Pirate Ship did not have monthly fees and the shipping prices were good.

#### Reasons for switching to Pirate Ship

I initially made the switch because stamps.com had monthly fees and the interface was clunky.

My overall experience with the program has been fantastic! It has allowed me to organize my logistical matters for my small business and be able to compete due to their economy of scale pricing they pass on to the small business owners.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Pirate Ship was suggested to me because I was getting frustrated about shipping costs outside of paypal and PayPal has started to restrict your use of their labels unless the transaction went immediately through them. As an artist who sells merch, this was frustrating. Pirate Ship has comparable rates which is awesome, and their interface is much easier to use. PLUS, I found out they have microshipping for Global shipping, where they can activate much lower rates for your international order. To my knowledge, they're the only free shipping site who can do this.

#### Cons

My only con is that the global shipping perk is something I had to figure out from a friend and message them about as it's not set by default nor is it easy to find information on.

#### Reasons for choosing Pirate Ship

Pirate Ship is free.

#### Reasons for switching to Pirate Ship

PayPal didn't let me ship products that weren't sent through them.

Simple Export rate, when turned on save us and our customers money with affordable international rates.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5

#### Pros

Easy to print shipping labels with no monthly fee. Ability to connect to my ecommerce site to import orders for shipping. Pirate Ship's simple export rate for international shipping is extremely cost effective and worth contacting them to have it turned on for your account.

#### Cons

Not fond of the user interface. Feels clunky and could use improvements.

#### Reasons for choosing Pirate Ship

I mainly use Pirate Ship when shipping international since the simple export rates are low.

### Pirate Ship is the Cheapest, Best Option

I am a convert when it comes to shipping packages through Pirate Ship--they are my first (and only) stop when I need to ship a package domestically in the US.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

First and foremost, I came to Pirate Ship because of its low prices for my domestic package shipping needs. I had first heard about it through the hobby board gaming community, but have since used it to ship numerous packages around the country. Its interface is easy to use and its prices are always cheaper than going straight through the USPS as an individual consumer. It has now become my go-to.

#### Cons

I was completely satisfied with my Pirate Ship experience and have very little to complain about. If they are able to get volume discounts on UPS and/or FedEx in addition to their low USPS prices, it would make it an even more flexible and powerful shipping tool.

#### Reasons for switching to Pirate Ship

I switched to Pirate Ship because their low prices are unbeatable when compared with direct consumer access to USPS, UPS, and FedEx.

Pirate Ship has made it super easy to do what I need to do in order to get packages out the door and to my customers in a timely manner. No more waiting in line. No difficult setup. No exorbitant fees to use the service. A great tool for small business people.

#### Cons

It doesn't have as many options as some other software, but it's ease of use makes up for it.

#### Reasons for choosing Pirate Ship

They're expensive and complicated to use. I canceled my free trials without even purchasing anything.

#### Reasons for switching to Pirate Ship

They just make it way more complicated than it needs to be to purchase postage.

There is no one that compares to the deep shipping discounts you receive using Pirate Ship. I get UPS rates for 75% off. Huge discounts for USPS also. You can integrate it with Ebay to use when you need to ship an item you sold. Pirate Ship makes it easy for shipping a package by giving you the label to print, providing tracking and keeping your records accessible to export or keep in your online account.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

The website is clear and easily navigable, and it takes only a couple of minutes to set up a shipment. Pirate Ship will find you the best rate, eliminating running all over town with your package (been there, done that). You can also choose to have the carrier pick up at your business, and know ahead of time exactly how much the shipment will cost.

#### Cons

One time I used it, most of the intransit tracking was provided by the carrier, and seemed to lag actual progress sometimes.

#### Reasons for switching to Pirate Ship

Ease of cost comparison, and better customer support!

#### Cons

I absolutely adore Pirateship and what it offers. Everything is well thought-out, it has efficiently-producing features (intuitive import mapping, rubber stamps, per-label tracking, end-user notification), the business model makes it *FREE* for end-users to use. What's not to like? I'm so thankful this company/product exists!!! YAY! My parrot, Simon, agrees. (as he lifts his head high, and declares "I am a pirate... ARRRRRR!")

#### Pros

1 -- FUN!! I smile every time I sign in! 2 -- Saved profiles -- it remembers your frequently used profiles to make one-off shipping simple! 3 -- Shows all options to find the best rate, applying Media discounts, and estimating times! 4 -- IMPORT Mapping -- that works! Although it doesn't do well with multi-tabbed worksheets, it imports single-tabs great, with an integrated field-mapping interface to make multi-order shipping so simple! 5 -- Automatic Per-Label Tracking! Their system, behind the scenes, polls USPS tracking data, so for your batch shipments you can see what % has been delivered, and where each individual package is! BRILLIANT, useful, and well thought out! 6 -- RUBBER Stamps! Labels can have custom "rubber stamps" (text) that prints on the label. We use this to help describe what goes in each package during our packing process. 7 -- Recipient Notification -- At a designated time, it'll automatically e-mail all the recipients to let them know a shipment is coming.. sweet!

#### Cons

- Would like to see support for multi-sheet excel workbooks. - Would love to be able to print my own JPG/PNG logo in the return-address section

When the package is returned you can't go into the distribution and correct it and reship it out. So if the list was to be used again that address would still be incorrect.
