STAMFORD, Conn. - Pitney Bowes, a global shipping and mailing company that provides technology, logistics, and financial services, today announced the launch of PitneyShipTM Pro to the Canadian market. PitneyShip Pro is a cloud-based sending solution engineered to meet the needs of today’s business world. The first shipping solution to be built on the powerful new SaaS Pitney Bowes Shipping 360 platform, PitneyShip Pro integrates next-generation design with advanced shipping functionality. The solution gives businesses an enhanced, customizable user experience, driving efficiency and productivity whether employees work remotely or in the office.

Flexible and scalable, PitneyShip Pro gives organizations greater control and visibility into shipping activity and spend, providing a complete view of their shipping activity across all employees and locations and offering the ability to rate shop across national and regional carriers. The solution delivers the ability to evolve and easily integrate new functionality and additional users as business requirements change. Applications including ParcelPoint™ Smart Lockers can be integrated quickly and easily to give organizations a more holistic way to manage sending and receiving.

Shemin Nurmohamed, Senior Vice President, Sending Technology Solutions, Pitney Bowes said, “Every second, 50 parcels are generated in Canada. That’s 1.6 billion parcels a year, expected to rise to 2.5 billion by 2026. Businesses need the right tools and technologies in place to manage this growing volume, to keep their costs down and deliver the best customer experience, but a hybrid workforce can make this incredibly challenging. PitneyShip Pro solves this problem, as the first of several exciting new solutions engineered to simplify shipping built on a leading-edge cloud platform.”

The intuitive, easy-to-use interface has been specifically designed to scale across all employees regardless of where they work, with its fast set-up requiring minimal IT support. Employees simply receive a secure email with clear instructions to access PitneyShip Pro from any secure internet connection and they can begin shipping. Businesses with common integration requirements will have the option to engage the award- winning Pitney Bowes services team, providing peace-of-mind and seamless integration with existing platforms.

The secure, reliable solution empowers businesses to:

• Select from a range of different carriers and services on a single screen including Canada Post, UPS, Fedex, Purolator, Dicom, Canpar, Loomis and ICS
• Shop different rates across multiple national and regional carriers to ensure best value
• Print shipping labels across multiple carriers
• Simplify international shipping with the appropriate custom forms

PitneyShip Pro is powered by the world-class Pitney Bowes Shipping 360 platform. The all-new SaaS platform’s robust architecture and seamless performance will host a set of solutions which support businesses as they adjust to a changed world of work.
