From Work Orders to Sales Orders, total visibility from the Production floor to the Warehouse floor!

Would highly recommend to any person looking to implement a WMS or TMS, this would be the first place I would start. Use them to build your requirements off their system and compare to the rest during your due diligence process.

PROS

Ease of use of the product was key. Bringing in a new process into a fast paced manufacturing environment is never easy. The product had to be easy to navigate and troubleshoot problems in processing in order to keep productivity up.

CONS

From a WMS perspective, the user interface could be a bit more modern. Not a hinderance to operations at all though.

Reason for choosing ShipHawk

At the end of the day, if the products all meet your requirements, the referrals and word of mouth along with the implementation team is what was the differentiator. We looked at ShipHawk being a partner in Maxima's growth aspirations, and leveraging their team and their wealth of experience and knowledge from previous projects was critical in guiding us through our successful implementation.

ShipHawk Saves our Company Money and Time.

We have used ShipHawk for about 3 years and have saved thousands of dollars in shipping costs and an equal amount saved in user errors when sending packages out. Some of the features we use and enjoy are as follows. 1.) Ease of use. Smart packing is highly recommended. Once properly set up ShipHawk is very easy for the average warehouse worker to understand and use efficiently. 2.) Highly configurable rules engine. ShipHawk can accommodate almost any shipping policy into to easy to use rule sets that can be configured easily. 3.) Customer support is top-notch. I can stand behind the support that ShipHawk offers its customer base. They have always been available for us when issues arise and I enjoy working with their support team. 4.) Integrates well with Netsuite and implementation with ShipHawk onboarding team was very professional. I would highly recommend ShipHawk to other companies and have on numerous occasions.

PROS

The efficiency of using ShipHawk for basic warehouse workers as well as the ease of use in administration of ShipHawk rules and users is also a big plus. Training users in the warehouse used to take weeks now in a few days they can be up to speed with most warehouse workers.

CONS

I don't see a lot of cons using Ship Hawk. Updates can be tricky due to our custom instance of ShipHawk. But that con is not entirely on them.

Reason for choosing ShipHawk

ShipHawk was highly recommended from our NetSuite on-boarding team. Upon reviewing the software I found it to be the right fit for our company and warehouse structure due to the ease of use it provided.

Reasons for switching to ShipHawk

NetSuite was not efficient for our warehouse workers to use effectively. User spent too much time looking for data to make shipping decisions. Most of the time the users couldn't choose the best shipping method for the packages.

Great product that gets the job done

Overall, ShipHawk gets the job done. It meets the needs we have for small parcel shipping with is huge. But with other options on the market, do you research. If you feel like this works for you great. But it is not the end all be all either. I am happy with ShipHawk, but again I was not part of the decision process when selecting.

PROS

I like some of the features as far as label creation. Having the WMS and Shipping Module combined comes likewise as a blessing and a curse. But as I am getting off the ground with ShipHawk, it works great but will require a greater in depth use.

CONS

I am not extremely please with the implementation process, i dont like the fact that their modules go from picked to shipped, but again its not a deal breaker just not what I am used to

Reason for choosing ShipHawk

The small parcel features

Excellent Sales Pitch with Terrible Follow Through

We wasted a lot of time and money waiting on them to fix things and jump through hoops when they should have been able to tell us up front that they were not a good solution for a company our size. They new we needed to operate without full automation for a while until we launched NetSuite. After 8 agonizing months of weekly setup meetings we find that there solution made it take 4.5 minutes to produce one BOL. That was the best time out of many tries. It takes 30 seconds with other systems. We set up and compared 4 other competitors while we were waiting on ShipHawk. Each one in a matter of hours.

PROS

It integrated with NetSuite and offered the potential to automate our shipping process so it cut down on the number of people needed just to create BOL's. However it took so long to try to onboard we had to abandon the process because we were afraid we would run out of time before NetSuite was ready. We gave them 8 months with weekly meetings and hardly got anywhere.

CONS

Terrible implementation team that spent a lot of time learning on the job.

Reason for choosing ShipHawk

Mostly timing of when we could be onboarded and the NetSuite integration potential.

Reasons for switching to ShipHawk

We were looking for a partner that had NetSuite integration.

Excellent Product and Support

A great company that strived to incorporate and tailor their system as best as they could for our company's unique needs and desires.

PROS

Being able to compare the rates of any of our carriers was clutch, and being able to also include non-supported carriers and still be able to track and manage the shipments and data automatically instead of manually was huge for us.

CONS

There are some features that we think could have been developed better for the end user, we've already brought those up to the team that handled our launch and they immediately began working on getting them discussed and implemented.

Reasons for switching to ShipHawk

We were looking for a means to automatically write back our shipping information back to Acumatica instead of manually entering.

Great Parcel Shipping Platform

I am super please with the end result. Looking forward to phase 2 of LTL shipping and how much more time my shipping team has to work on other core functions!

PROS

I like how easy it is for my team to ship a package. We have it dialed down to a few scans, and boom, you get a label!

CONS

The system is very customizable and rules driven. I wish the rules were already built in or could be easily understood. The ShipHawk team has been great about helping us navigate the customizations!

Reasons for switching to ShipHawk

ShipHawk integrates directly with NetSuite and we no longer have lag time between packing > shipping and shipping > billing.

Great Software for Shipping, one of the best

By using ShipHawk we have been able top optimize our shipping process saving us time and money. When ever we have an issue or question on how to do something the support team has been quick to respond and keep us moving.

PROS

How easy it was to integrate with Netsuite and to keep it update. We love how easy it is for the users to ship out the packages and it saves us so much time.

CONS

Not much I don't like because ShipHawk has helped us customize the parts we didn't like so the software has met our needs as we continue to grow as a company

Reasons for switching to ShipHawk

Software was slow and they were unable to meet our needs as we were growing. Couldn't deliver the customizations we were looking for

ShipHawk is the best whiteglove and LTL aggregator out there with full API support

We run an online marketplace and we need to ship products and integrate all the results (pricing, tracking, delivery dates, etc.) into our system so that we can provide updates to our users, track them for our own book keeping, and follow up if things go wrong. UPS and FedEx were easy and reliable, but we also ship large irregular items that require whiteglove handling or crating. Those items require working with much smaller, more specialized shipping partners that lack the technological infrastructure of a UPS and are very difficult to integrate with. We spent many dozens of hours of staff time each week on the phone with shipping companies and individual drivers trying to keep our transit information and ETA estimates updated and tracking down missing shipments. ShipHawk abstracts all of that away and provides an API interface much closer to something like UPS, complete with status updates and all. Definitely a much easier, smoother, more scalable process for us.

PROS

ShipHawk does all the heavy lifting to get updated tracking information, negotiate rates, and work with shipping partners. That frees your own staff up to make your own product better instead of spending all their time on the phone with truck drivers scattered around the country. It also means that you only need to integrate with a single service (ShipHawk) rather than the dozens of specialized regional shippers out there. Better yet, ShipHawk provides a modern RESTful API and hides the fact that many of the smaller shippers still just ask you to email them spreadsheets.

CONS

There are many, many options involved in shipping something complex like a heavy bronze statue. What sort of packing job and materials should be used, what sort of machinery is necessary to load it onto and off of the truck, etc. Many of these are opaque and confusing unless you're familiar with the details and terminology of the shipping business. ShipHawk abstracts away some of these and is very responsive to questions and queries, which takes the sting out of this.

Takes your business to a new level

ShipHawk was great. Our implementation manager, [SENSITIVE CONTENT] was incredible, everyone on their customer service team responds quickly and helps resolve any issues or concerns. This is a great, straightforward company to work with.

PROS

This web-based intergration effortlessly ties into Netsuite. I researched many of the leading shipping and fulfillment solutions available to tie into Netsuite and communicate without heavy intensive customizations and massive scripting. Shiphawk does all of that and more. Shiphawk allows my team to communicate with each other and improve efficiency. Our shipping times, shipping errors and processing times all have been reduced. I was looking for an extremely affordable service, that was web-based and not limited by users or locations. I also needed something that could be implemented without having dedicated IT people working on it. Finally, I needed to make sure that my customers would see improved communication as well. Shiphawk allows our company to improve our shipping and fulfillment operations without even needing custom hardware.

CONS

The only real con that I can speak of is that there are a couple of insignificant features that could be built out. There are a few small customizations that just stop short of giving improved capability. All of these things I was able to resolve with a few Netsuite Workflows. So all in all, not really an issue. Plus I know they just released their WMS so I suspect that is where some of those features have been expanded on.

The improvement we needed to help all sides of the business.

PROS

Shiphawk has solved for so many issues in our business. This solution brings about the communication and process improvement to our sales, operations and AR team. Shiphawk is worth it for the following reasons: Simplifies the shipping process with repeatable data from netsuite. It also brings all carriers into a single solution. This allows our team to focus on the value add instead of remembering lots of information that can simply be loaded on the sku. Reporting has helped us see how, where and what carriers are used to make better strategic decisions. Sales use the get rates to make live shipping decisions while the customer is on the phone. AR has benefited from the custom rules sales implements. Overall this is worth investing in.

CONS

The rule system while works could be better & you have to have a plan on how to write them to make sure they function. Being able to rank them in order on how they process, create folders for structure etc would all be helpful in keeping them orginized.

ShipHawk Review

PROS

Able to connect to Retail Website. Gives shoppers accurate shipping rates before purchasing. Able to filter orders by warehouse so each site can only see what they need to see.

CONS

Doesn't have quantity in decimals. 0.5 lbs of nails for example or selling by the lbs. Large modifications take a long time to complete or cost extra to speed up the programming part.

Reason for choosing ShipHawk

More features, able to handle multiple warehouses, notes to order, keeps software up to date.

Shiphawk Review

Overall experience has been very good (see "Pros" section above). Additionally, customer service has been very strong overall (upgraded to "exceptional" in recent months).

PROS

We love the master pack system. After initial set up of the system, Shiphawk now populates order weights within a 1/4 of a pound, eliminating the need to weigh each order. We basically just verify the ship-to address, click and ship. The system is easy to learn, very user friendly. Anyone can figure out how to use Shiphawk.

CONS

For a while, every 3 months or so, the system would go down briefly, requiring us to manually ship orders using FedEx's ship station portal. It seems like the frequency of these outages has been decreasing, however. Leadership has been very receptive to our feedback on this issue.

Reason for choosing ShipHawk

Flexibility to configure the product the way we needed to (master packs, lithium batteries, up front rating).

Reasons for switching to ShipHawk

The prior product required us to manually weigh each package and configure packages. A lot more room for error.

Great Company - but they no longer offer their services to small volume companies like ours

We loved working with Shiphawk when we had the opportunity, they provided us with cutting edge software which made our efforts much easier when quoting and booking shipments for our customers.

PROS

We had used Shiphawk's software for about 6 years and their platform was incredibly easy to navigate and their rates were competitive and fair. The quick rate function was a perfect fit for our needs, using the software several times a day to be able to quickly send our customers shipping quotes for our furniture items.

CONS

Unfortunately Shiphawk no longer offers services to "small volume" companies like ours. They closed our account with no notice back in July 2020 and we were unable to book the dozens of shipments we had already quoted our customers, which was costly as we had no other alternative at the time.

Streamlined out shipping

Costs are down. Searching for shipments is easy and the search function is intuitive enough that even minor details on the order will bring up the correct results.

PROS

This has been the single best change in our operations to date. Not only are we saving money, but the ability of every user to search any order in the system and find important details like tracking numbers is is very helpful. User interface is simple, but very effective. Searching for orders is easier than our previous system (UPS World Ship). We are very happy with Shiphawk!

CONS

Like most software I use on a daily basis, I prefer to use a 'dark mode', which is easier on my eyes. So far I have not seen that this is available. Other than that, this is great shipping software.

Reasons for switching to ShipHawk

Ease of use, and cost.
