I've set up Stamps.com shipping at several businesses now and it's always the first shipping software I select when setting up a new shipping operation. Ease of use and setup are huge pros for this software

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5

#### Pros

Super easy to use and setup. You can be shipping your product on day one and having the Post Office deliver products to your customers. Just point n' click!

#### Cons

It's limited in other software integrations, but by the time you need those, you'll be ready for the next level of shipping software. For the ecommerce entrepreneur shipping from their basement, Stamps.com is all you need.

#### Reasons for choosing Stamps.com

In my opinion, Stamps.com is easier to use than competitive products. Additionally, it receives official support and integrates directly with the USPS.

Stamps.com is a good starter software for small businesses. It works well if you are only selling on a few platforms and shipping small amounts of orders at a time. For multiple platforms and many orders, it becomes difficult to use. I find myself having to do a lot of things manually, like adding tracking numbers back into the selling platform to update the merchant and customer. I also hate having to purchase special labels and stickers through their shop as it gets expensive. They do offer great shipping costs though. I’m really neutral with this software. It works decently but there are better options out there.

#### Reasons for choosing Stamps.com

I liked the price and shipping options offered.

Overall, they really came through for our organization during the pandemic. We ship out a decent amount of merch, so it was nice to avoid post office trips and potential Covid exposure.

#### Pros

It's nice to be able to do all the labeling work at home, without having to worry about being inside a dingy post office with no air circulation and grumpy employees. Once you get the hang of it, it's pretty simple to use.

#### Cons

The Ux is very confusing, and the cost for labels is kind of outrageous. The fact that you have to pay a monthly fee is also not ideal.

#### Reasons for choosing Stamps.com

Merely because of its third-party connection to the USPS.

Overall its the best thing for us right now at a cost that is extremely affordable. We also don't need to rent or lease any expensive equipment or purchase ink. We bought one new thermal label printer and it is awesome!

used for a couple years. Read most of the reviews and disagree with some are clearly not factual. 1-if a paper jam or bad print you absolutely can REPRINT the label by clicking reprint at the top. 2-customer service is quick to reply during the posted business hours. 3- free usps supplies are very easy to order on the website.

#### Pros

It’s convenient and a time saver. I’ve been using it for a couple years now. I like the reports for business records like tax time. As well as the tracking.

#### Cons

When toggling between shippers to compare costs you need to re-enter the weight and dimensions all over again. Postage costs rise, but then so does the monthly cost, WHY? It’s the exact interface, products and process was years ago. Why does it cost more monthly for doing the same thing it did years ago? Printing labels.

If I was getting good technical service support and getting questions answered and not having to many snafus I would say my overall experience would be good. However because of the last two days of not being able to do business the way I'm used to I would say because of technical support I have a poor experience. I have people in Poland waiting for care packages to come in and other places around the world like South Korea Bahrain Kuwait some undisclosed areas Iraq Syria and I can't I'd have to keep my production up because these deserving service members are waiting for support from the USA. IHONOUSA.com has been shipping care packages to troops since 2012

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

I started using Stamps.com because I used to stand in line at the post office and would see people walking past me and put their packages down on the counter and leave. So one day I ask someone how do you put your packages up and walk out. And they told me Stamps.com. So because I make frequent trips to the post office this was intriguing to me. So I looked up the service and decided that this was something of a innovation innovation moment for buyer nonprofit organization shipping care packages to troops. It will save me a lot of time standing in line at the post office. And then I started having them pick the care packages up at the door of my home which was even more time saving. As far as the software is concerned it was easy to learn easy to use and I was very thankful to have this addition to my process.

#### Cons

Over the years I've had pretty good success with Stamps.com my only issue with this company is their customer service really sucks. And it seems to be getting worse as time goes on. I recently had an issue with Stamps.com not recognizing APO addresses that I was shipping to because they didn't have the last four digits. Well I wanted to find out because most of the APO addresses that I shipped you don't always have the addition of four digits. So after spending 2 1/2 hours on and off the phone with stamps.com tier 1 technical support who didn't know anything and then they switched me to tier 2 in about an hour and a half and even though the guy worked with me to try to figure out or troubleshoot the issue we realized it still is not gonna work. But they would not tell me why or what was different than the three or four years prior that I was using this service.

#### Reasons for switching to Stamps.com

I switched to Stamps.com because I needed a time-saving mechanism which Stamps.com provided.

This was a very easy program to get initiated. Once you have your printer set up, and a scale, everything is a breeze. Customer service can be hard to get ahold up latter on in the day, but that is expected. Although, they do answer rather quickly in the morning. Very good program, I would recommend to any home office or any office for that matter.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

What I like most about this software is that all of your post office needs can be taken care of from the comfort of your own home/office/etc., without having to go all the way to the post office. We are a law office, so we are constantly mailing items out. This program allows you to print directly on your envelope with your own logo, and really makes things look professional.

#### Cons

The most difficult part was getting the program set up with our printer, but all in all it was not that hard. Another process that took me a while to figure out was the international mailing. They could have made the format a little easier, but still not that hard to figure out.

#### Pros

The ease of signing up and immediately starting to print postage is nice. You can sign up in about a minute. When you sign up, initially for a trial, you receive some sign-up benefits like in free postage and others. Most of the benefits, however, are fairly useless. If you connect an e-commerce account, it can import all of your orders. This is extremely useful to quickly print postage and it will automatically upload the tracking information to your e-commerce account so you don't have to later.

#### Cons

The monthly fee and difficulty in canceling are the two biggest downsides. It is not too expensive, but you can find other cheaper options if your shipments per month are on the very low end. Another downside is that it logs you out fairly frequently and then takes a while to load each page even when you're logged in (I have a fast internet connection and computer, so I know it's not me). Last downside is if for some reason you damage the shipping label you just printed and have navigated away from that page, there is no way to reprint the label. You have to void that one and print a new one. A refund for the first label won't be given for two weeks at the earliest. This is highly annoying.

### Useful for Specific Businesses, Unnecessary for Most

At a time in my professional career I was mailing out 25+ packages a week and was spending an insane amount of time in the post office. My packages were marketing materials that were catered to specific individuals and therefore had different sizes and weights. My local postal workers must have absolutely hated seeing me walk in the door because I was always holding (or carting in) a ridiculous amount of packages that all needed postage. It caused me so much anxiety; it made me absolutely dread going to the post office and some of my packages would even go out late because I would postpone mailing them. Being able to calculate and print off postage on my own is such a relief. I usually take the packages to the post office myself and just drop them in the receptacle but sometimes, depending on how many boxes and/or envelopes I have, I will utilize the pick-up service that is offered.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 3/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

The thing that I am most grateful for is the amount of time I have been able to save by not having to be in the post office for 45 minutes two (or more) times a week. The postage calculator is also a life saver, I got a scale to weigh my packages and would just put their weight into the program and it would calculate the amount of postage I needed. Having the ability to print off a bunch of stamps at once has been invaluable for me, as someone who mails out marketing materials regularly.

#### Cons

I have experienced glitches in the software more often than I should have, frankly. The software is nearly $20.00 a month and there have been several occasions where I had to re-print a stamp because it printed incorrectly, through no fault of my own. The re-prints are supposed to be without cost because they are used in a situation where the first stamp is unusable but I have been charged double. If you get the stamp sheets that they send and you only need 5-10 of the 25 available slots, running the sheet through your printer more than once makes the page get a weird grey tone and the stamps look dirty.

I have my Stamps.com account linked to Shipstation and have used it for over 14 years now and love it. Easy to use to find the best shipping rates for any order and shipment. I have all the UPS, FedEx, DHL, USPS set up to check the cost of each to ensure we get the best price for each shipment.

#### Cons

Not good at letting you know when FedEx, UPS, or USPS adds to the price already quoted and paid. But that is with any shipping software. They add additional cost after you have paid, shipped, and think you are done. Like adding $$ for delivering to a residential address.

I have used stamps.com for over 6 years, at about 4 different places that i work, i know its a popular system and easy to use. other Pros if you are a new to shipping, they offer a free 1 month trial and free 5lbs scale, and a pack w sticker sheets, postcard stamps, i believe you just pay for shipping.

#### Cons

Printing postage for something as simple as postcards is a real nightmare, I really really dislike how the set up is for post cards you have to purchase seperate sheets to print out the postage then stick them 1 at a time on your post cards, this is not efficient, esecially when you have thousands of post cards to send out. another con is the monthly fee. If you are selling on any platform like ebay, etsy, amazon you can purchase postage directly from them, for sometimes less than you can on stamps.com which defeats the purpose of paying a monthly fee for a "discounted shipping rate" Im not a fan, they lure you in w free things but at the end of the day after paying for their special stamp paper and monthy fees we dont save anything in fact im sure we spent more than we needed to.

I was very satisfied with all the services I found available on Stamps.com. We signed up when our non-profit needed to mail magazines and correspondence across the country. The integration of Stamps.com with UPS was a huge time and money saver. Label printing was easy and the whole service just simplified our mailing process. Very satisfied!

#### Pros

I love the ease of printing pre-paid labels, loved not having to go to the post office to mail, really appreciate being able to pay for and then email a label to shipper, easy tracking of all packages, free boxes and supplies shipped to our offices. I also really appreciate the customer service and being able to speak right to a real person when I needed help, they were friendly and knowledgeable every time.

#### Cons

I don’t like the rising rates of postage, but nothing Stamps.com can control.
