V-Technology’s StarShip for Sage 100 is shipping software that streamlines the shipping process by directly integrating your Sage 100 software with various shipping carriers (like UPS, FedEx, USPS, and LTL Carriers). It allows the user to rate shop, generate shipping labels, track packages, and automate the writing back of shipment information (like tracking numbers and freight charges) to Sage 100, eliminating data entry errors. As part of their ongoing strategy to improve and enhance their solutions, Starship is going to the cloud with their new platform—StarShip Cloud.

Moving from an on-premises installation to a cloud-based installation has a number of steps for successful implementation. As part of the move, V-Technology:
The first step in our migration process involves updating your on-premises server to the latest version. This ensures compatibility and maximizes the performance of your existing infrastructure before transitioning to the cloud.
We utilize a sophisticated data conversion utility to extract 80% of your data and import it into our cloud environment. This step is crucial for maintaining data integrity and continuity. Below is a list of the types of information we can migrate:
Data that will not be imported includes Users and roles, Dashboards, and eNotify. These are not part of the elements automatically created with the Cloud Conversion Tool.
Our team sets up connectors on local machines to facilitate shipping operations. Additionally, a source connector is established to ensure seamless data flow between your systems and our cloud solution.
Printers and scales are configured with the newly established connectors, allowing for efficient and accurate processing of shipping and logistics tasks.
We authenticate carriers within the cloud environment to ensure secure and reliable operations. This step is vital for maintaining the integrity of your shipping processes.
StarShip Cloud supports a wide range of your favorite Parcel and LTL (less than truckload) Carriers, including the following:
More carriers are being added continually.
Testing is a critical component of our migration process. We conduct thorough tests to ensure data is accurately received and transmitted back, minimizing any potential disruptions to your operations.
To empower your team with the knowledge needed to leverage our cloud solution effectively, we provide two hours of dedicated training for desktop clients. This training covers essential functionalities and best practices for using the new system.
Migrating to the cloud does not have to be daunting, and it offers the added benefits of increased efficiency, reduced errors, and scalability. With V-Technologies' structured onboarding and data migration process, you can rest assured that your transition will be smooth and efficient.
