That's not the whole story. ShipHero WMS is more than a WMS, it's a warehouse operating system. You might say that's just semantics. It's not. Let us show you.

Paul Dell, Founder

“It’s made things feel more scalable. It has emboldened me to say ‘let’s go ahead and go up a notch’.”

Inventory Management

The days of your inventory being "off" are over. With ShipHero, you'll have real-time visibility into what's in stock, what's sold out, and what needs to be replenished.

Out of the box, you'll love how simple it is to manage cycle counts, kitting, lot/expiration/serial tracking, and all the other nuances of day-to-day operations that are frustrating your team and slowing things down.

Returns Management

Returns are a fact of eCommerce life. And they can be a logistical nightmare. But they don’t have to be.

ShipHero gives you the option to set rules for returns, including planning for incoming returns and what happens when a return is received. These rules can include parameters for re-stocking a returned item or destroying it, based on item type and condition.

Your pickers will be sent into the warehouse with mobile tech that makes picking faster and more efficient. Barcode scanning cuts error rates by 99.9% - that’s awesome!
