Pros

“XPS gave us the ability for many users; i.e. shipping and customer service departments, to see status of our shipments to our clients so everyone could give updates. ”

MaryAnn N.

General Manager

“XPS offers a great solution for printing labels, tracking delivery status, and integrates with many website platforms. Since the integration with Wix, it has made my life much simpler!”

Brian E.

Owner

“I love that you can integrate your websites so the shipping addresses are all right there, you can check USPS, FEDEX, and UPS pricing all on one screen, and I can schedule the pick up from here also!”

Heidi R.

Manager

Pros

“If you enjoy walking past the long line of UPS customers and dropping your package off and leaving or if you enjoy putting your package or large envelope in your mail box for the postman to pick up instead of going to the post office, this is the service for you.”

George S.

retired personal user

“Both WiFi and network connection (we moved our machine and do not have a hard ethernet port available at new location - but can connect easily by WiFi)”

Christina W.

Office Administrator

“I appreciate the accuracy and the prompt delivery using Pitney Bowes along with saving money, which is definitely important these days. ”

Kimberly W.

Biller

Cons

“Sometimes if the wifi isn’t real strong it needs to be rebooted to accurately quote shipping prices.”

Porschea W.

Co Owner

“There also is not the ability to print many labels at once. If I send 10 packages, I have to load 5 label sheets (2 labels per sheet) then flip them halfway through.”

Patrick M.

Production Supervisor

“If looking at UPS rates it does not automatically verify residential addresses as the UPS site does and can lead to under charging if customer pays shipping”

David H.

co-owner

Cons

“I have trouble finding how to adjust the mailing date for my items since I don't always mail my items on the same day that I print my labels.”

Rose H.

Fulfillment

“I do not like that when you pay online the day your invoice is due you charge a late fee. If we pay a week in advance it is fine but the due date, we are charged a late fee of 40.00.”

Dee P.

Church Administrator

“Because of the way my company is set up, I have to reload money every $200.00 and given the volume of mail, that can be a pain.”

Greg E.

State Tax Manager
