Benefits of ProShip

It’s a fact that shipping majorly impacts revenue, which is why investing in the right parcel shipping software is an important part of your big-picture strategy.

Cost Savings

Many ProShip customers see an ROI in under 1 year due to a reduction in transportation costs from automated rate shopping, faster shipment processing, omnichannel fulfillment and transportation business intelligence.

“We saw an ROI with ProShip software in about a month.”

– Pat Sullivan, Distribution Center & Logistics Manager, Mason Companies (watch the video case study)

Increased Throughput

Because ProShip’s carrier engines are built in-house, they easily handle the throughput needed on day one, all the way through peak holiday shipping season. Our customers love to test us, with some of them shipping millions of packages in a single day during peak with no downtime.

“We went live in all 3 Manhattan DC’s close to peak with minimal issues. This gave us the confidence to utilize Proship in other areas of the business. We are happy to tell that story.”

— Kevin Norsen, Director of Logistics Strategy & Systems, ULTA Beauty (read the case study)

Carrier Diversification

Capacity constraints and increased carrier surcharges are the new norm in today’s parcel shipping world. ProShip makes it easy for you to onboard the global, national and regional carriers you need in order to be successful.

“The addition of ProShip will provide us a more robust solution offering elevated levels of distribution efficiency, carrier integrations and quality support — helping us exceed customer expectations.”

– Ryan Ostrom, Chief Brand Officer, GNC (read the case study)

Omnichannel Ease

Utilizing every inventory source available to you is more important than ever. Whether you have thousands of store locations or multiple 3PLs and other third-party vendors, ProShip allows you to bring your product closer to the customer – shortening its time in network – through the connections in your Enterprise Technology Stack.

“ProShip shipping software has allowed us to scale our e-commerce fulfillment network with ease. The flexibility and speed to rate and service shop multiple carriers instantaneously has allowed us to ship tens of thousands daily through multiple channels.”

– Christopher Falls, Manager Omni Fulfillment & Supply Chain Optimization, Petco (read the case study)

Flexibility

ProShip isn’t a cookie cutter system. It’s fully customized to fit into your enterprise technology stack and scales as your business grows.

What Sets ProShip Apart

There are many parcel shipping solutions available on the market, so how do you decide which software is right for your unique business? At ProShip, we take this very seriously and have outlined the reasons our shipping software stands tall in a mix of cookie-cutter solutions.

Core Technology

ProShip controls the lifecycle of its own Intellectual Property.

Because ProShip controls the development, integration, services and support of its product, you can be assured that your software is authentically ProShip end-to-end and is built for the enterprise shipper. Other solutions rely on 3rd-party technologies for their software to work, which limits flexibility and throughput capability and increases the possibility of interruptions in service.

Speed

ProShip’s on-premise carrier engines offer millisecond transaction times.

By hosting carrier rates on the ProShip server, we’re able to cut out the middleman, so to speak. Other parcel shipping solutions require web-services (APIs) to enable communication to the carriers, resulting in latency and downtimes during peak volumes. [Learn more about speed here]

Updates

ProShip’s updates are done automatically at your designated interval to ensure that your company is always on the newest software release of our software.

ProShip updates are done with no downtime so that your shipping strategy never comes to a grinding halt. Competition software solutions that communicate with carriers via API connections (resulting in delays and downtime), requires steep fees or may not offer automatic updates at all.

Compliance

ProShip maintains close relationships with our carriers.

ProShip leads the industry in certified and compliant shipping services through an ongoing commitment to relationship building with our carriers in order for our engines to be 100% developed and supported by us directly. As the only solution to be awarded FedEx Provider of the year twice and stay Diamond Status every year since the inception of the program, ProShip has the reputation and the experience to help you stay carrier compliant and compatible 24/7/365.

Support

ProShip has a team of in-house shipping and IT experts that know your unique business.

Support in the shipping technology business is a critical element of the overall customer experience. Whether a basic question or an escalated crisis, the support team should be fully prepared to assist. At ProShip, customer support is more than a concept – it’s a commitment to educating and communicating with our customers. ProShip is always excited to help a new customer on their journey to better shipping.

Industries We Serve

ProShip was designed for mid- to high-volume shippers in any industry type. We deliver results across retail, third party logistics/distribution, manufacturing and healthcare by giving companies the tools they need to ship products faster, more cost effectively and always in compliance.

How ProShip Empowers Manufacturers

Logistics efficiency for manufacturers is more important now than ever before. Whether you’re B2B, B2C or both, customer retention relies on on-time shipping. Struggles with order fulfillment, rising logistics costs and capacity overload can cause real problems for manufacturing professionals who don’t have a solid parcel strategy in place. 

How manufacturers exceed their goals with ProShip:

• You’ll have the flexibility to pivot strategies when implementing new programs (for example direct-to-consumer) to create channels of direct communication and distribution
• You’ll save money on every single shipment (up to 30%!)
• Thanks to ProShip’s robust architecture, you’ll be able to remove manual processes from your parcel shipping to improve efficiency and speed
