CarrierGuide overview

What is CarrierGuide?

CarrierTMS is a truck management software (TMS) designed to help dispatchers optimize drivers' time on the road and reduce back-office expenses, driving profitability for trucking businesses.

With effortless load management, CarrierTMS enables users to easily oversee details for trucks, trailers, and drivers. Information can be uploaded whenever needed to keep data updated. The multi-view load board reduces empty miles by consolidating loads to find better freight options. The software suggests loads based on upcoming empty truck locations and provides dispatcher performance reporting.

The system also includes concise business intelligence reporting for understanding organizational performance. Invoices can be created and sent within seconds to improve efficiency. CarrierTMS allows users to save preferred lanes and access historical lane data for receiving fast, personalized load recommendations on frequented routes. Other features include finding loads, posting empty truck data, communicating with drivers in real-time, document uploading, and viewing upcoming shipments.

For additional capabilities, CarrierTMS Pro offers seamless load tracking, dozens of integrations, and advanced analytics for data-driven decision making. Other features include invoicing, driver statements, QuickBooks integration, factoring, 1099s, IFTA reporting, document and safety management, multiple MC management, and ELD/fuel card integrations.
