GLOBAL FREIGHT
Benefits
Global Freight is the first
enterprise application for International Forwarding
designed for the web and offered on a hosted basis.
Forwarders benefit from hosted
solutions: Lower total cost of ownership ForwaderLogic users
benefit from sharing in the hosting and development of
the applications evolution. New customers pay a set-
up fee representing a small fraction of the cost of
development to date. Upgrades to the base product
occur between four and five times annually at no
additional cost. Minimal IT maintenance Apart from a local network
with internet access all equipment is hosted by
Equipnet and managed by Equipnet at its hosting
facilities in Milan-Italy
and Munich-Germany.
Predictable IT costs - Because the user pays only for
what they use, IT costs are predictable per file and
decrease as the volume grows.
All in one application (Manage all modes in one
application) While most software vendors provide mode
functionality as distinct modules, Global Freight
includes all modes, import, export, domestic and
consolidations. If your core business is Ocean export
for example, you can still accept Air and truck
shipments for import, export or domestic with no new
set fees.
Integration Services A forwarders success is
directly related to the degree of integration that can
be achieved with clients, agents and transport
partners. In house management of integration is
challenging even for the largest forwarding companies
and are simply not an option for most forwarders.
Oceanwide has the largest integration infrastructure
handling any file exchange and translations through
all communications protocols.
Support Global Freight is the only software service
for Forwarders that offers around the clock support,
which is critical to global operations.
