lately there is no much offers but users don't know current avaiability situations and wait to much to get a quoate.

Pros

Easy to select options, but is very slow.

Cons

timing to send approvals is awful, every time we have a good option we have to wait because of the blocking of having 4 options.

Very good platform and customer service is always quick to reply/action

Pros

Ease of adding consignments for competitive tendering without needing to send separate emails to freight forwarders. The platform works well for searching on past entries and generally tidies up the process overall - which would otherwise be done more manually

Cons

Freight forwarders do not update their shipments on the platform (not Cargobase issue).
