Shipping Live Rates for FedEx for WooCommerce

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 39% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   I needed to set up shipping for items always Free to lower 48, Local Pickups, and Paid shipping for heavy/oversized items. Plus shipping for AL, HI (paid). Including a Handling fee for signature/insurance. It was tricky, but Piotrek worked with me to get it right for USPS and FedEx. I was also able to show the customer which items were “Free” shipping and which were paid. I used the “Notice” plugin for those that require them to contact us. He had me set up a “staging” site, where he also had access, so we could keep tweaking it until it was correct. Top notch service. The time difference was a little frustrating, but we got it done in the end. Now it works Great! Very Happy.

   I think this is generally a better shipping rates plugin compared to what is out there. It just need a bit of polishing on the English side in terms of words used on the interface. They do try their best to fix any issue but I wish that they have more support across different time zone so it will be much quicker. On another point, do give discount like 50% for plugin renewal for returning customers.

   I would have gone with a different app if I had known it would take nearly a week of going back and forth to get this app set-up for a very simply shipping scenario. There is no real 1on1 support. Some of our products are heavy, so we need to use Freight. There are literally no support docs for fedex freight

   I could not get any live shipping quotes UNTIL I set the ZIP code in the WooCommerce store settings. After that, I started seeing all of the shipping options I enabled. This topic was modified 7 months, 1 week ago by jerome21z.

   Installed, connected and working in 10 minutes at the most – a far cry from some other shipping plugins I have used!

   Even though this is a free plugin, I am amazed by the support that was provided. Tomek was very helpful in ensuring all of our questions and concerns were addressed in a timely and efficient manner. Thank you!
