Acumatica is such a powerful, user-friendly platform in part because it’s so customizable for every customer’s unique needs. Whether it’s out-of-the-box functionality that just need small tweaks from experienced developers or any number of external add-on products.
One of those add-on products that we recommend, and that our customers use frequently, is ShipEngine. ShipEngine allows users to choose preferred carriers, streamline all the labeling and administrative processes, and ultimately save money on shipping.
