All and all it is a good program to be tendered loads from.

Pros

Iyt is very easy to be tendered and accept loads. I can also update the load on the app. It is a very easy program to use.

Cons

At times the application is down and the app won't load. It also has too many options for status updates.

We have been with 3PL Systems for roughly a decade, been through 3 or 4 versions with major format changes, some ups and some downs. We are still here because they have proven to have a reliable and useful product that continues to add value to my company every day. With 20 employees pushing over $25M in revenue through their system I know where the holes are in logistics management. I put manual labor in those holes and from my customer's perspective we are top of our game.

Pros

\-LCR -Ability to send documents from system by staff or customers -Historical data easily accessed -Profitability report -Time stamped notes -SAAS in the cloud

Cons

Can't lock down a transaction in a "closed" month.

We have been with 3pl a long time 11 years and in the recent years they have really stepped up their game. 3pl needs to stay on the cutting edge. see above statement

Pros

support staff is excellent easy to use, easy to teach new staff members how to use. Ability to use over several service levels. very transparent for sales people and dispatchers

Cons

Need more access to data IE: past loads carriers and costs. Need staff to be able to see what we moved when we moved it and with what carrier. easier and faster.

Overall satisfied with my experience, but encounter small bugs on a weekly basis and the turn around time to fix them is sometimes extensive. For example it took over a year to get the eDistpatch feature working for Dohrn Transfer, a common LTL carrier.

Pros

Easy to use The XML connectivity/ability with LTL carriers Automatically creates documents (BOLs, Dispatch, Quotes)

Cons

Limited Truckload capabilities (does not allow counter offers or a time limit for quoting, also does not have MacroPoint tracking capabilities) Only lets you send emails to one contact at a time Limited International Capabilities (only has Canada zip codes, and even those are limited, and doe snot have any ability to create a commercial invoice or pro forma)

Response from Vendor

September 12, 2018

Hi Alex, Thank you for your honest feedback. We are glad that your overall experience has been positive. In regards to your concerns, MacroPoint has been integrated within Brokerware for the last 12 + months. Also, you are able to send emails from the system to more than one contact at a time. We will have our support team reach out to you to address these concerns in more detail. Thank you for your business and we look forward to continuing a mutually beneficial relationship between our two companies. Sincerely, 3PL Systems Team
