What is Alpega TMS?

Alpega is a cloud-based transportation management solution addressing the needs of shippers from businesses of all sizes and logistics complexity. These SaaS solutions optimize and streamline processes across the end-to-end transportation cycle for over 200 customers across 80 countries, managing over 30 million transport orders each year.

Alpega solutions are modular, and can be implemented as stand-alone, integrated with an existing logistics IT landscape, and can scale as the business requires. Alpega enables collaboration with all trading partners throughout the supply chain. By connecting shippers with carriers, customers and suppliers, improved visibility is achieved as well as shared, real-time information for improved decision-making, compliance and transparency.

Alpega solutions offer the opportunity to reduce overall freight spend and carbon footprint through improved freight procurement, planning and optimization, shipment execution, freight settlement, and analytics and reporting. Additional solutions such as live vehicle tracking, dock appointment scheduling, reusable/returnable packaging management, and mobile solutions further improve end-to-end visibility, the efficiency of transportation workflows, and the automation of manual tasks via the use of logistics IT.

Pros
Alpega(Transwide) has given me a good experience. It is user friendly and allows my company to conduct business in the manner it needs to, to best serve our customers.
Transwide is very easy to use and they provide outstanding customer service.
It is fairly user friendly, and adding new users is easy. In addition, the support team is very helpful whenever assistance is needed with setting new users up or resolving general issues.
Cons
Every day there are Error messages meaning a problem with someone's call-off, I receive all errors (Roquette sites all over the world). Would be great if we could see only U.S. call-off errors.
A major concern of this system is that it is wide open. Anyone that uses the system can wreck havoc on it.
Regularly fails to update entered information; get notices of problems with its own system.
