The challenge

Zenni Optical, an online eyewear retailer, experienced shipping-system downtime an estimated 2-3 times a year. The case study estimates each instance idled staff for roughly 12 hours across 30 employees, an approximate $5,400 loss per event.

The solution

Zenni Optical adopted the EasyPost shipping API to centralize shipping data and enable real-time tracking, prioritizing uptime and responsiveness.

Uptime is critical; EasyPost is pretty responsive and a better option than the one they used.
