"Our experience, while rocky at times, has been great and we are very happy."
What do you like best about Descartes 3G TMS?

We are able to provide innovative solutions to our customers that we previously could not have offered. Integration between customer or carriers has been extremely beneficial and increases the types of solutions wer are able to offer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Descartes 3G TMS?

We have a wide range of customers and for the "simple" shipping customer, the system can be a bit too complex. However, we recognize that the complexity is necessary for the innovative solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent"
What do you like best about Descartes 3G TMS?

Integration Hub, service team, visiblity Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Descartes 3G TMS?

Not much. Initially it was the lack of brokerage tied to the the Enterprise level TMS solution. I would like more mobile functions and a continued improvement of automation and carrier database capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"3GTMS implementation in Europe"
What do you like best about Descartes 3G TMS?

the configuration possibilities are to a very detailed level which enables us to achieve an efficient workflow. The various ways to tender out loads to carriers gives us the option to get the best rate from the market. Capacity agreements on day level makes the tender proces very efficient and avoids unnessecary communication to our carriers. The possibility of the integrated execution management gives us the possibility to drive continuous improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Descartes 3G TMS?

the possibilities for internal reports is limited for realtime reports and online editing comments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Realising our Dream: SmartWay Logistic"
What do you like best about Descartes 3G TMS?

It's a new product based on the newest technology so we are convinced that we can use 3GTMS for the next 10 years. Furthermore building filters is easy. 3GTMS is building a controll tower functionality that covers our actual needs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Descartes 3G TMS?

It's a pity that we can't use 3GTMW for the asset part of our business. Another point is that due to the fast growth of 3GTMS there is a lack of developers capacity and that causes delays in implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"System is built for power, not usability"
What do you like best about Descartes 3G TMS?

The system has a lot of horse power behind it. There's options to accomplish almost anything you need it to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Descartes 3G TMS?

The UI needs a lot of help. There's too much split screens and expandable windows to where you feel annoyed navigating in there. The system is not very self intuitive so it requires a lot of repetition and patience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
