Worth knowing
ProShip
- No prices are published. The vendor says WorldLink pricing depends on software complexity, engineering needs, an annual maintenance agreement and license type.
- ProShip is sold through discovery calls and implementations, so it is not a self-serve app for small sellers.
- WorldLink covers North American shipping; the vendor points shippers needing other regions to the Enterprise product.
ShipHawk
- No prices are published; the pricing address redirects to the homepage and a demo request.
- It is software, not a carrier or a 3PL, so you need your own carrier accounts.
- It is built around ERP-connected operations, which may be more than a small shop needs.

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
