Cloud-Based vs. Premise-Based Shipping Software

There are many shipping software choices these days. Many shipping software development companies offer cloud shipping software, and many others offer premise-based shipping software that requires a larger upfront investment but ends up being the best value over time by eliminating ongoing subscription payments.

Very few shipping software developers offer both, and OnShip is one of those companies. If your shipping operation doesn't require complex integrations, detailed reporting, or shipping business rule customizations, OnShip Cloud could be a perfect fit for you. However, if you're a high-volume shipper, with specific host integration and customization requirements, OnShip Pro Server may be a better fit for you in the long run.

Here's a handy chart to give you a basic overview of the pros and cons of cloud vs. premised-based shipping software. Happy OnShipping!
