New freight system

Really improved our order to fulfilment process. We have saved 2 FTE's by implementing Cario

PROS

Easy to integrate into our WMS, so our orders flow straight from ordering system to fulfilment system. We can now scan and our labels print immediately. Warehouse guys excited with time saved.

CONS

As part of our go live we wanted multi leg consignments. This has taken a while to get set up. I understand it is complex but I expected it day one.

Reasons for switching to Cario

Wanted a cloud version that integrated with our WMS

Review of Cario TMS

Great user interface. Ability to deal with all of our carriers like TNT, Toll and StarTrack through the one system.

We should have integrated this sooner. This has saved so much time.

Reason for choosing Cario

Cario Review

Overall Cario has been good for Printgraphics, it gives us different options of freight carriers, easy & quick to estimate prices, easy to produce consignment labels and book in pick ups. Anything that can save us time and money is a good thing.

PROS

The Quick Quote function is easy to use and easy to do multiple quotes

CONS

the tracking function isn't always up to date

Reasons for switching to Cario

We switched freight company's due to pricing

Cario review

Saved us significant time and money, in an industry (freight) that we don't know a lot about

PROS

Agility to fit into our business needs. We needed a flexible freight platform that would manage our many freight carriers and different requirements of our clients. After reviewing the market, we found Cario to be the most flexible option, able to fit the varying needs across our client base. The multi leg consignments feature is a big plus, as this has saved us a lot of money when sending large shipments interstate.

CONS

It's so flexible it can mean that you spend additional time working out the best process for your business. Other freight platforms were more rigid with their business process - which means our business would have had to conform to that process. With Cario it was the opposite, allowing us the flexibility to decide the best process, but that meant we needed to spend more time upfront.

Reasons for switching to Cario

More flexibility

Automated our entire supply chain

Automation of our supply chain. The local Australian support team have been really helpful.

PROS

Cario has automated our operations. Rather than manually quoting, booking and tracking our freight, it is now all automated. Cario chooses our lowest cost supplier, and we can see when our warehouse chooses a more expensive one. This out of the box report (lowest cost comparison) has transformed our freight costs.

CONS

Initially our team enabled too many carriers in Cario, which meant our warehouse didn't run smoothly. We now use between 4-5 carriers and find this is the best mix within Cario.

Cario - Freight System Review

The Cario team is very easy to deal with, particularly being Australian based. They are not afraid to get their hands dirty. A great, easy to use interface.

PROS

I love the integration capability. It took about a week to get it integrated and live with our ERP system. This has really helped automate lots of our dispatch processes. The advanced shipping notices and alerts to our customers have really improved our customer experience. Tracking is very good.

CONS

Keep coming up with new Business Intelligence Dashboards. The existing ones are really useful. More is always welcome :)

Reason for choosing Cario

Very strong road map. A large focus on Business Intelligence and IoT. Very knowledgeable team.

Reasons for switching to Cario

I was seeking great customer service. Also functionality, price, roadmap

Simplified our Freight Management

Great. The team in Melbourne helped with any questions we had.

PROS

Our Sales, finance and customer service teams are now all accessing the one system. This has reduced our manual processing and simplified our freight consigning.

CONS

Only has the major shopping cart integrations. I needed a custom plug in for mine and it had to be built which cost extra.

Vendor Response

Thanks for your review, we love hearing how Cario is helping our customers!

User friendly end to end software

PROS

As a daily user of this system, it helps us manage not only our freight but our customers too. An easy software package that can be tailored to your individual business needs. Flexibility to choose your carriers based on needs and now comes with a carbon calculator which helps our business make more environmentally focused decisions on how to send our freight.

CONS

So far there is nothing that I am unhappy with.

PROS

The product team have worked with our opps guys to get the system working around our processes. Rather than us needing to change our process to work with the system. Lots of functionality. Outstanding support from their Sydney and Melbourne teams.

Ideally, they would build route optimisation into the freight system too.

Cario has made our job easier

Cario has transformed our business with the flexibility is has offered us. Having all our freight in the one place, with full visibility both of where freight is, but also the cost analytics across our freight spend is really valuable.

PROS

Usability. Love that I can compare our freight carriers quickly both on price and service, book them straight away and get real time information on each delivery and POD. The ability to add another carrier in real time has helped our business - we can now add new carriers and get better pricing straight away.

CONS

Not much that I don't like. Support has been good, perhaps more documentation?

Reasons for switching to Cario

Needed something more agile and user friendly

ESSENTIAL FREIGHT SOFTWARE

Cario is so progressive and customizable to my particular needs. Quick to log into and keep open all day.

PROS

Ease of use so any team member with limited computer skills can easily get the job done! Cario performs all my consignment tasks on a daily basis no matter how large or small the job is. Loving the fact that my rates are implemented in the software so I have "live" pricing from a range of carriers for each consignment.

CONS

Only that I didn't find Cario earlier as my daily driver.
