"Great Functionality + Amazing Success Team"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Route?

Their customer success and support team are very responsive and will ensure they resolve your requests and concerns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Route?

The only real downfall is that they don't cover for chargebacks at the moment, but by the sounds of it, they are working on this as it has been a common request among merchants. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Route solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's a great way to give more clarity to our customers. Our CS team would receive so many questions about our customers orders and Route has been a great solution and a very clean UI for our customers to track their orders. This also opens up countries we were usually hesitant to ship to due to lost packages, stolen products etc. but with Route we are now looking to expand out to those countries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good but.... Has it's glitches."

3.5/5

What do you like best about Route?

I like how they make it easy to set up and how very hands-off the actual platform is. If a customer has an issue with their order not arriving or being stolen, then they're able to contact Route directly and it will be resolved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Route?

I have experienced a lot of glitches with the plugin, about the third month that we had been using the platform we experienced an issue where if a customer would turn off the added protection for their order, it would turn back on after a few seconds thus adding the additional charge to their order, there was no way to turn it off and keep it off. so we had to remove Route from our checkout page and we got in touch with Route's technical support, they are still working on an issue but it has now been a month since this issue first started happening. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Route:

I would say if Route can fix this issue where the button can't be toggled off by the customer, then go for it because they can easily save you and your company a lot of money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Route solving and how is that benefiting you?

If a customer's package was stolen or lost in shipping then Route replaced the item with no additional cost to my company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Route is a huge asset"

5/5

What do you like best about Route?

Us deciding to leverage Route for our eCommerce orders has been a great decision. Our customers consistently express their peace of mind and security when purchasing from us due to us offering package insurance with Route. Our account manager Makaylen and product support specialist Erika are fantastic at ensuring we're in lock-step with customer trends, insights, UX / UI enhancements and any other topics we wish to focus on and the Route team in its entirety are such a pleasure to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Route?

I wish customers had a way to connect live with Route's customer service agents. While the Route customer service team does a great job on CSTAT, having the optionality of chatting with an agent in real-time would take the customer experience to the next level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Route solving and how is that benefiting you?

Route's shipping protection gives customers the added security they can purchase products from us without the worry their package will get lost or stolen with no resolution to their issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very happy with Route+ and their team"

5/5

What do you like best about Route?

I love how personable their team is and how easy it is to work and communicate with them. Sarah is always so helpful whenever I ask for information or have any trouble. I appreciate that they have a free option as well as a pay option if you feel you need it. This has definitely helped our company save money with lost/stolen shipments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Route?

Not so much a dislike; their dashboard could offer a deeper dive into metrics. Sarah is always great if I need extra information, though! Would love a hybrid model but that is in the works too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Route solving and how is that benefiting you?

Customer satisfaction and cost reduction. Metrics into lost shipments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
