I use ShipWorks because it was recommeneded by a friend. I needed an inexpensive order management set up that would do the label work - (import info and print labels on the Zebra printer for UPS) and provides easy tracking of orders. It will import into WorldShip but I have been using UPS online with no problems. It works for me because I have a shipping clerk for pennies a day amd fits my needs at this time.
For USPS you can use multiple services, does delivery confirmation and signature confirmation and works with Endicia or stamps.com I don't use USPS much but I like the option of First Class laser labels rather than Priority for small parcels and mailers, up to four on a sheet.
It generates reports, invoices, packing slips, generates email to the customer and more but I haven't played with all the features because of the lack of time. Templates are XML but they offer support and template help, sign up has a reduced rate. They offer 30 day free trial so I test drove at Christmas. I am far from a techie or geek but it was easy to install and I have had no problems using it with ShopSite Pro 8.0 or 9.0
