## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** Packlink PRO is free, so making your own would save you nothing. And it is not the kind of software a weekend replaces. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 3.0 is higher than 31 of the 33 other shipping software we grade.

- You could not: Discounted carrier rates and labels, which take an agreement with each carrier.
- You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.

A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it.
