Our company has a great support and sales team assigned to our account they are incredibly knowledgeable and responsive.

Pros

It is one of the most all-encompassing TMS systems for transportation companies today. It allows you to keep accounting, safety, operations, customers, vendors, and assets records all in one place. There are multiple integration partners available for customers to work with and has a wide variety of API offerings as well.

Cons

It can be a very intimidating software option for those not familiar with it, and companies must have a trained key user for help desk support.

My overall experience has been positive. I basically do everything I need in the same system.

Pros

LoadMaster is a huge system we use. With it, you can run all kinds of reports from booking the loads to the employees' database.

Cons

Takes so much effort to integrate and customize. It can be difficult for beginners. Also, the system looks old like Windows 98. I wish they could change the appearance a bit.

Overall my experience using this software was positive

Pros

I like how much information can be stored within this software. I also like how you can customize the view of the software by building infinite board views.

Cons

This is not a userfriendly software, it took me over a month to understand. Though there are so many helpful features, the features are hard to find and there is tons of useful data that gets hidden.

McLeod makes everything you need accessible at your fingertips and without this easy-to-use software, I can only imagine my job as a Logistics Manager being more difficult. As I said, over time if you realize you need one more button to make things easier, they can add it. With all the stress involved in my profession, McLeod LoadMaster eliminates some of that stress.

Pros

This is a program that I use on a daily basis and I've grown to love it. It makes everything that I need in my logistics field accessible, efficient, and fast. In the world of logistics and sales, speed is everything. With their programming and customizable button format, if you find something that could be made easier, they can add it and in a great easy to use format. You rarely have a time when McLeod is completely not operational and when it is, the McLeod team acts fast to get it fixed.

Cons

When you are running a lot of reports or one large report, sometimes it can make the program crash or lag. At times, it can even freeze. This usually doesn't last for long periods of time, but when it does. It can be at the worst possible moment.

Terrible

Pros

McLeod is very powerful with lots of features.

Cons

Design, ease of use, features being available, ...the list could go on forever. Customer Service and training is a joke. Need help? You call, get billed for it, and the person you talk to has no idea what they are doing either.

Easy to learn how to navigate

Pros

The software offers double posting for transactions. You can easily search for posted transactions. If the deposit total doesn't match, after all the invoice payments are applied, the deposit posting will not be completed. Sticky buttons, and does not need to take up my entire computer screen.

Cons

If I search for a transaction that is entered but not yet posted, it will not show up in my search. It doesn't allow an easy way to make a "cash receipt." A cash receipt has to be entered for each customer individually before you can finish and post the deposit.
