Pros

Easy to import our Excel mailing lists into the program. Sorts and corrects addresses quickly and easily. Does the forms automatically!

Cons

We are very familiar with using it, probably a users manual for new users would be welcome.

I have worked with Postage Saver for a number of years. Great software! The regular emails to advise of postal increases and notice of needed updates, which are quite easy to implement, make this a terrific solution.

Pros

Postage Saver is very easy to work with and is a wonderful alternative to the more expensive solutions. Postage Saver reports are accurate, and the cost is much less. Plus, \[sensitive content hidden\] is available and always very helpful!

Cons

I have absolutely no complaints. And \[sensitive content hidden\] is always available by email or phone call if I have a question.

It's okay not great but okay.

Pros

That you can print out the tags even though I still have to mark them as non presort

Cons

I still have to fill out the forms to use for non presorted - parcels for Bound Printed Matter. The program doesn't recognize mailing out phone books. When I have called in the past the person I spoke with acted like I was an idiot and did not want to help.

So much easier to use than the program we used to use at a great price! Very user friendly.

Honestly can't think of any cons. The price is great and it is easy to use.

Just great. The software works well. Greate value and you get a USPS expert with \[sensitive content hidden\] supporting the product!

Pros

Ease of use. Great support from \[sensitive content hidden\]. Up to date within microseconds of changes from the USPS, Postage $aver is ready go .

Cons

I desperately want to save jobs to specific job files so we can pick them up and re-run the jobs. Also would be nice to have PS add the needed feeds without having to so the manually.

So far it has been a great experience, and I would recommend this product to anyone who is wanting to do bulk mailing for their business!

Pros

The customer service is completely amazing! I never leave reviews, but \[sensitive content hidden\] has been so helpful, knowledgeable, patient and friendly, that I had to share how wonderful my experience has been! The software itself is very user friendly and does almost everything for you. This has been huge for me because the Post Office process is very cumbersome and confusing. This software gave me confidence that I could actually get the job done! It is more than worth the small cost of getting the software. It absolutely is worth it!

Cons

nothing. I love it. Like I said, it's very easy to use, which is great because I am not that tech savvy.

Highly recommended to anyone whose postage needs Postage $aver can help with.

Pros

Postage $aver stands out as the best-supported software I have ever used. Bug-free, easy to update and use, inexpensive, and very fast and helpful support via email.

Cons

A minor point, but I asked for a couple of small changes over the years that were not possible to implement. \[sensitive content hidden\] explained why to my satisfaction. Wouldn't even have mentioned it but I was required to enter something in this field.

Postage Saver walks you through each step of the process with detailed explanations of each input. The software is easy to learn and simple to use. The last mailing I did I saved over $8000 in postage because I was able to send my magazines periodical rate. I wouldn't have been able to do that without Postage Saver!

Pros

Very simple setup, easy to use, everything you need is printed out and ready for you

Cons

I wish there was a way to save previous mailings. Also would like to be able to compare different inputs to figure out what might be a cheaper way to mail. One other recommendation -- the website looks a bit outdated and I remember I was a little bit hesitant to buy Postage Saver because I didn't know if it was legit or not.

I can't imagine how I did without it. It makes the very complicated USPS easy to work with. I have never had a problem with a mailing submitted to the BMEU or SCF. Here is my monthly e doc assessment "United States Postal Service, "eDoc Submitter Postage Assessment for Mail Quality Errors: No additional postage due" - NEVER A PROBLEM!

Pros

It is so easy to use and makes preparing a mailing a breeze. It keeps me up to date with changes. If you're a small mailer going to the local BMEU, you will know more than most of the people on staff

Cons

I can't think of ever not liking Postage Saver.
