If there's a rating for negative stars, I'll give this company that rating. You are proficient on WordPress, yet you do not possess knowledge of the default admin login address. My 7-year-old child is familiar with that information. They respond rapidly to my requests, but I think it's a language thing. Even when I send them a screenshot of their username, they reply with, “I don't understand what you mean.” The best thing to do is hire a company that is from your country. If you're shipping from Hong Kong, this is the company for you. And their support team set everything up about a month ago, and then I got prices that aren't real. The extra shipping will be charged to your card after I paid and printed the label, what a ripoff! Then I completely lost all the settings. I went to my easy ship account, and they told me my WooCommerce was disconnected, my client received a price of $7 to ship from my warehouse to an in state client. The package weight was 4 pounds (1.81 kg). I'm pretty sure I'm going to get charged more for this package. I cancelled my account and paid for a membership that only lasts 2–3 months. It was a waste of money and time. At all costs, avoid them.

We've been using easyship with WooCommerce for about 3 years. It's never given us a problem. The only time we've contacted customer support is for shipping issues such as lost packages so they can follow up with the carrier, and they have been reasonably quick to respond most of the time. I've compared shipping price with some other discount postage providers, and they are similar (all about the same actually). Though you might have to pay annually for a plugin for some other providers where easyship plugin is free.Customers like that it gives them carrier choices and shows what the import tax will be, if there is any.The biggest, and really only downside with easyship for Woocommerce is it doesn't support using multiple warehouses in different regions. So if you have some inventory in Netherlands, and some in USA, you can't use shipping Zones and Classes to get local shipping rates, or direct orders to the appropriate warehouses. The solution is, use a different postage provider plugin for a different warehouse. This is really a shame, because easyship has warehouse partners with ecommerce fulfillment around the world, but you can't use more than one warehouse with Woo.

I followed all the installation instructions to the letter but my WooCommerce store would not stay connected. The disable/enable button didn't work. The plugin was untested with the current version of WordPress and hasn't been updated in 7+ months.

with each update comes a surprise. it may or may not mess your WooCommerce (and I have a premium plugin). that is to be expected with plugins overall and is usually fixed had it not been for a terrible customer service. I'm dealing with a representative for over a month trying to fix an error, they won't connect you with a developer. using easyship interface is not user friendly, it is very slow and you may get your labels rejected. refreshing your orders can take some time and it is not done automatically (you have to do it yourself every time). getting an answer to your ticket can also take some time. i bought it and have regretted it. it's better if you can find a better solution and save yourself some time.

Easyship's website really simplified the process and saved me a lot of money on an international order. I haven't done a lot of direct sales, but that experience made it a no-brainer when I started setting up woocommerce for future direct sales. The set up was about as intuitive as I could have hoped for.
