Business-Shipping (2.03)

I've been using Business::Shipping for a couple of years on 1 particular web server, but I recently ran into a problem with new installations of the module on 2 new web servers. My tech support team couldn't figure out what the problem was, and after multiple re-installs, they told me to get outside help. Out of desperation I contacted Daniel Browning, the module's author, and was shocked to get an immediate response! Furthermore, over the course of 3 days, Daniel reviewed my test script code, studied the failure messages we were getting, and suggested changes to my code. Eventually, we resolved the installation problem - and we could not have done so without his help. Excellent module. Excellent support.

Verry good interface for shipping, I only used USPS rate request for now, but it works fine and is easy to use.
I will use the other shippers and services later on.

I'm only using the UPS Online part of the module, and it works well. Daniel always responds to questions promptly, which is most welcome.

I was able to get it working, but it turned out I only needed the USPS online mode, and it was simpler to post XML directly to the post office site. If one's needs are simple, this can seem like a lot of module. Can't comment on the overall performance since I did not end up using it in production.

I did find the docs a little sparse. For instance, when you initially communicate with the USPS server, you're required to do so in a test mode. That's supported, which is good, but the switch doesn't seem to be documented outside the code itself, so it took me a while to find it.

I was up and running with this very quickly. I wanted to make a change to the interface and the developer responded with some helpful suggestions. Thanks!
