Saas basis transportation management system

A Saas basis transportation system is a cloud-based shipping management system purchased monthly as a per-user subscription service via the internet. Instead of your local servers, a Saas transportation system runs on the servers of the third-party vendors who are responsible for maintaining and updating the software periodically during the year.

Why use Saas as the basis?

Saas transportation management system can help accelerate a user’s return on investment (ROI) when it moves from implementation to integration and eventually optimization without any upfront investment in technology and fees for upgrades. Businesses can also use SaaS TMS the way they want with great scalability. In other words, they can access data of carriers already in the system’s network, knowing volumes of freight at any time and making smarter logistics decisions to prevent service disruptions.

Besides, with shippers and carriers using one transportation management software, supply chain visibility can improve thanks to the recorded shipping data history. The Saas model makes real-time communication possible for all parties, enabling them to work together on shipping procedures while keeping track of the same data simultaneously on the same web page. The streamlined communication together with comprehensive data reports thus contribute to greater visibility into logistics processes.
