What are the benefits of Shipatron?

Background

We created Shipatron because we found many smaller ecommerce businesses were running their ecommerce operations in a very manual way, or paying through the nose for bespoke technical integration. And while there were plenty of ecommerce solutions in the marketplace, many were prohibitively expensive.

Benefits

  • Get on with your day job: Take the heavy lifting out of order and product management, as orders go where they need to go automatically, while products can be sent out to multiple marketplaces with no human intervention.
  • Improve customer service: Orders get sent to where they need to go more quickly, even outside of office hours, while refunds are faster. Inventory numbers are more likely to be accurate.
  • Reduce IT development costs: Shiptaron takes the sting out of building complex IT builds. We've done the development for you and built straight forward user interfaces so you can setup and maintain them yourself.

Example Use Cases

Shipatron is a simple and highly configurable application, so there are a wide variety of use-cases which we support. Here are some examples:

  • You have a single product store and multiple drop-shipping companies, you can use Shipatron to route orders through to different 3PL, drop-shipping or warehousing partners.
  • You wish to route orders based on the order location, order shipping method, product type or tag.
  • You have multiple marketplaces (e.g. Amazon and a Shopify store) and you want all orders to be managed through the Shopify interface.
  • You have a primary web store, but also sell on a variety of Mirakl marketplaces (e.g. Harvey Nichols, Gallerie Lafayette), so you use Shipatron to publish products automatically onto these marketplaces, then manage all of the orders back to Shopify.
  • You wish to send a duplicate copy of each order automatically to a different location.

And many more, if in doubt, contact us.
