Aljex tms system simply put is the absolute best out there and I've used many!
I have had a wonderful experience with the aljas and I will continue to use it for many years to come.
PROSI'd like the ease of use and also the customer service is very helpful when needed. And it's just very straightforward and simple format compared to other TMS systems.
CONSTo be honest, there's really not much that I don't like about algebracks. I really can't think of anything that I would change or that I would do differently.
Reasons for switching to Descartes Aljex
Because this is the system that SD freight was using when I started working with hthem

Most client focused software firm I have ever worked with.
Our staff can work remotely and use all of their tools in Aljex. Effective integration with other important applications.
PROSAljex was way out in front with a cloud based solution years before its competitors. The help desk responds within 5 minutes or less on desktop support issues. Unlike a lot of competitors who offer additional programming (and cost) at every turn, Aljex asks us about the underlying business challenge and nearly every time they offer a way to solve it using the existing platform. That's a sign of a partner. I think much of the success for Aljex is attributed to the fact that the founders of the company were transportation brokers who learned how to program, not IT people who are trying to learn the business. The Aljex user interface is very intuitive because of this .

Very disappointed with Every Part of this program and their service
Very disappointed with service, cannot reach anyone when having issue you need to email and they decide when they have time to service. Reports are latterly not accurate and missing many charges etc. You cannot change invoice once summited or it will not be added to front page, Many accessorial fees disappeared and after calling in for service they fixed it but couldn't guarantee all was fixed
PROSWas fooled that they have many easy features but couldn't find any
CONSSlow processing, all reports are not accurate, hard to pull reports, old design
Reason for choosing Descartes Aljex
My friend was also moving to Aljex and thought we can learn together but now we are both disappointed
Reasons for switching to Descartes Aljex
Wanted to invoice from same system

Best TMS out there
I've been working with Aljex for over 8 years now. They have developed the best TMS in the business, with the flexibility to support all kinds of logistics processes while being robust enough to exceed expectations in every aspect of the workflow any transportation company could have or need. Aljex offers something none of the other major brands can: a deep understanding of the logistics needs from and administrations standpoint and a broad and comprehensive approach to the day to day operation of the shipments.
CONSHonestly, since I've lucky enough to experience all of the new functionalities and developments, I think they have a tool that has a lot more to offer. And they are getting there.

Aljex has been an integral part in ST Freight's growth and success.
We are able to expand at any pace. Being able to add new agents only takes about 20 minutes and they are ready to go is a huge plus. Their support team is really second to none also. If there is an issue, one email usually gets it resolved and it is done quickly.
CONSThere has been a few ideas that I have thrown their way that I think would have helped improve their product. And they have implemented some of them. However, I had to pay for the programming.

We have been using aljex for years and have it customized for our company.
makes our work flow faster =
PROSEasy to use for the accounting office, flows smoothly into Quickbooks. Easy to find screens and what you need. I like that its customized to our company so that we can just transfer from aljex into QBS and it shows everything we need to make paying carriers and our brokers smoother.
CONSGlitches once in awhile but usually its fixed pretty quickly. We are on the whole are happy with the product.

Very pleased.

Support is not readily available
The board itself is easy to use but the issues with customer service and support are poor. If you can get your own software i would recommend it. customer service is nothing more than a call center. they rarely have an answer for your question and have to "call" you back which takes sometimes days.
PROSThe ease of use of the software, thats all
CONSThe time it takes to address a situation. the lack of support. The inability for the customer service to answer a question in a timely manner. The advertise software capabilities that are not even functional yet.

I am loving all the features Aljex has to offer. this program is definitely helping to grow my busin
I like how everything is in one central location so I don't have to use more than one program daily. this software is perfect for freight brokers. Even small brokerages can benefit from this program
CONSI wish they would include more features for a user. Each integration you do you have to pay Aljex and then pay the third party company as well. I think it would be nice if they ran specials or deals/packages.
