ShipHero

ShipHero US

ShipHero is a real warehouse management system for high volume direct to consumer shipping, and it starts at USD 15,000 a year, about 1,150 EUR a month, on an annual contract. The software is capable, the entry price puts it outside the reach of the small operations most readers of this list are running.

Best for

A direct to consumer brand or third party logistics operator shipping tens of thousands of parcels a year

Strengths / Weaknesses

Strengths

  • Unlimited users, SKUs and warehouses on the entry plan, so growth does not trigger a seat negotiation
  • Genuine picking floor features, pick to light, receive to light, tap to pack and mobile replenishment
  • Transparent overage pricing, 0.24 USD per direct to consumer shipment with prepaid tiers down to 0.151 USD
  • Built for shift based warehouse work rather than office stock counting, which is a real distinction in this category

Weaknesses

  • USD 15,000 a year minimum, roughly 1,150 EUR a month, and onboarding typically starts around USD 5,000
  • No free plan and no trial, evaluation is by demo only
  • European carrier coverage is thin, DHL eCommerce, DHL Express, Deutsche Post, Bring and Asendia, with no DPD, GLS, Colissimo, PostNL, Bpost or Royal Mail named
  • NetSuite is the only accounting integration, there is no Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, Exact or Datev
  • No EU or EEA data region is published
  • Single sign on costs 500 USD a month extra on the entry plan

Verdict

ShipHero is the only product in this list that was designed for people wearing warehouse shoes, and that shows in the picking workflows. It is also the product most likely to be the wrong answer for the reader, because the floor is an annual contract around 1,150 EUR a month before onboarding. If you ship under a few thousand parcels a month, the money is better spent elsewhere. If you ship twenty five thousand a year and the picking floor is the bottleneck, it earns its price, but check the European carrier list against your own first.
