Here's everything you need to know about getting started with Sorted's delivery experience platform.
When you choose new software, you want to know how things will work after that contract is signed. That's why we've built this page; to give you an honest, behind-the-scenes look at the journey a retailer, brand or partner takes to get up and running with Sorted.
Here, you'll find everything you need to know about the who, what, why and when of onboarding.
Our delivery experience platform connects all the major touchpoints of the ecommerce journey and powers checkouts, carrier management and post-purchase tracking around the world. The platform hosts three core products:
Personalised delivery options based on real-time carrier service availability.
SortedHERO
Single integration end-to-end delivery and carrier management.
SortedPRO
Automated tracking and post-purchase communications.
SortedREACT
And... we're off.
Maybe you're a single carrier operation with direct, one to one carrier integration. Maybe you're a multi-carrier operation, switching from an existing CMS. You might be moving from carrier hosted post-purchase tracking and comms, or moving from another provider. Or maybe you're something in between, or something else entirely. Whatever your operations look like, getting started with the Sorted platform isn't a headache.
There are three options available when onboarding.
Our experts will work closely with you to define the best option for you and your team, to ensure a perfect fit for your business. Regardless of which option you choose, you'll have access to all technical documentation, integration designs and API information upfront - as well as access to our awesome support packages.

What that means for you
You’ll use any of your chosen products features but you may also want a carrier service we don’t currently have on platform. We’ll check if its on our roadmap and if not we can add it for you.

What are the timescales and who needs to be involved?
Throughout the whole process, you’ll have the support of our team to ensure everything is running smoothly (take a look at who you might meet here). When it comes to rallying your team, each retailer and partner is different – but here are the two players we work with most commonly:
Our most self-sufficient clients use our tech docs portal and integration documentation to manage the whole onboarding process – in these cases, clients are up and running within days. For clients with complexities, or instances where more consultation and professional services are required, timelines will be agreed collaboratively from the outset. Often, the onboarding journey differs, depending on the requirements from the retailer or partner - with each timeline tailored on a case-by-case basis. So the question is, how quickly can you move?
Regardless, there are some key milestones that form part of every onboarding journey... and we're here to support at every stage.
1. Select your products & carrier services
2. Our Technical Pre-Sales team help you pick the perfect integration design
3. You fill in our configuration checklist & provide the required details
4. Custom work completed (if SaaS+ or Tailored)
5. Configuration day & go live
6. Early life support (or hypercare, if Tailored)
Things don't often go wrong. But, if they do, you want the peace of mind that we're on hand to help.
With Sorted, you get access to some of the best technical support in the industry. We offer a range of packages to suit your needs, and our team will help you choose the best option for you and your organisation.
We’ll be sure to keep an extra close eye on you as you go live, to make sure everything is working as expected and all the creases are ironed out. We provide comprehensive early life support as standard, and hypercare for our tailored clients, to ensure every partner gets the right support and the smoothest go live possible.
We’re also currently in the process of rolling out an innovative new support credit system, where credits can be used for a range of professional services, including consultancy, training or solutions architecture sessions. Watch this space (and get in touch if you'd like to hear a bit more...).
