Roquette-1st in the U.S. to use Transwide

We use just the Call-Off product now, but looking at the TMS product also. Excellent Support in the U.S.

PROS

ease of use for shippers and carriers information organized in a logical format great visibility filter function helps manage shipments

CONS

system goes down and that creates major issues, all visibility is lost, don't know what tenders went through and what didn't. 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.

Reason for choosing Alpega TMS

we wanted to control the tenders and not use TMS like all the other companies proposed and Transwide was the only one that enabled that. We were the first U.S. company to sign on with Transwide.

Review Software

Controlling daily trucks is greatly organized, just needs to be updated.

PROS

Organized, informational, Changeable, Very User friendly.

CONS

Slow, Too many steps, Have to click too many pages to get what information is needed. Needs to have quick access to Daily Schedule upon logging in. Needs to be faster at loading up pages. It would be nice to have an App on phones for easy logging on delivery times and or changes.

Alpega (Transwide)

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. The customer service team in Pittsburgh is always willing to help, and make it a priority to help find ways to make the system work more for our needs. CSR is always on top of finding solutions, and if she doesn't know the answer she makes sure to search one and get back to us.

PROS

This software makes it easier for my department to conduct business. It gives a line of communication between our customer service department and truckers in order to ensure the customer is getting their shipments. It is eye appealing and user friendly.

CONS

The notifications are sometimes delayed, on when they are going to have outages.

Vendor Response

Hi Aimie, Thank you for taking the time to review Alpega (Transwide)! We appreciate you sharing your positive feedback and we're happy to hear our support team has been helpful. We are currently working on improving our communications around system access.

Excellent Communication Tool

We were the first U.S. company to start using Transwide. We utilize the tendering product to get our orders to truckload carriers. It saves us a lot of time and errors in the tendering process. Our carriers like it a lot with the 24/7/365 system availability.

PROS

Simplicity of use and clear organized transport order information for the users. Login is fast, easy to add users, TW Support is very reactive and helpful for both Shipper and Carriers. Don't have to keep changing password like a lot of systems. System updates are always done on weekends.

CONS

Screen changes are a bit slow (about 15-30 seconds per screen). Scheduled down time is always planned for best time in Europe so is always during U.S. business hours.

Vendor Response

Thanks for the great review and feedback. WE appreciate our lengthy relationship with Roquette. You never forget your "first" ;-)

DLF Asset management solution

We choose a solution that offered more than we needed, and therefore we had to abandon it.

PROS

Very comprehensive solution, offered dock scheduling and inter-company organization on an advanced level

CONS

Difficult to navigate and tailor to needs of particular business

Reason for choosing Alpega TMS

It was priced appropriately and was a sophisticated option

Reasons for switching to Alpega TMS

We needed more functionality than offered

Transwide Feedback

Transwide allows us to manage our business versus our carriers managing our business for us. Demurrage costs have been slashed by 75%.

PROS

Click of a few icons and loading schedules are there and we know what is facing us for the next few hours - until it changes of course based on drivers or customer requirements.

CONS

Logs you out after x number of minutes of inactivity.

Vendor Response

Thanks Delores. We value your years of usage and your recent feedback.Transwide allows for 40 minutes of inactivity before logging out inactive users. Like most cloud solutions today, we have to trade-off how long we can allow our 80,000+ users to remain on the tool without activity vs. performance speed for those who are actively using the applications.

It is easier to use than Schneider National site.

PROS

I can use the reference number to sort my screen by.

CONS

I don't like if I want to use the data option, I have to put in everything every time even though I only have one report. I do not like it times out. (not always 40 in between usage) It is SLOW!!

Alpega - Review

Transwide allows us to communicate with one of our top customers. It plays a significant part on our on-time communication and allows us to track loads that were accepted or cancelled.

PROS

This software is very user friendly. The amount of training needed to navigate is minimum. Everything is very straight through and I like the idea of having different communications tools with all parties involved.

CONS

The amount of notification emails. Alpega sends too many notifications in regards to one single load/event.

Vendor Response

Hi Edgardo, Thank you for the kind review. Regarding the email notifications, these preference are easy to set up per user. We'd be happy to show you how to pick and choose which notifications you would like to receive under My Notifications in Transwide. I will call you directly, but you can always contact us for help via live chat, emailing supportna@alpegagroup.com or dialing 877-778-9433.
