Shipflo's container pre-input feature eliminated 90% of our mislabeling errors. We went from spending 5 hours per container to just 1 hour. This is a game-changer for our Lagos route.

The offline scanner saved us during our warehouse internet outage. We didn't lose a single scanning session, and everything synced perfectly when we got back online. Worth every penny.

Zero downtime

QuickBooks integration means our accounting team doesn't have to manually reconcile shipments anymore. We handle 200+ containers a month to Kenya and South Africa - this automation is priceless.
