• CargoWise edi and Riverside Logistics recently announced an exclusive agreement under which Riverside will use the CargoWise® Forwarder software solution to support its international operations.
CargoWise® Forwarder helps Riverside manage various services for its international customers, including bookings, vendor selection, shipment management, customer reporting and accounting functions. Riverside also subscribed to CargoWise's web-based Shiptrax® system, which allows Riverside customers to track shipment status and enter orders in real time from any location with an Internet connection.
According to Riverside's Jim Durfee, General Manager for Transportation, “We selected the ASP version of CargoWise® Forwarder because we liked the ability to always stay current. Also, unlike in-house legacy systems which can be costly and burdensome to develop, build and support, CargoWise® Forwarder offers superior functionality and support at a fraction of the cost and with minimal drain on internal resources.”
Durfee said that “CargoWise® Forwarder was fully operational within 30 days and preliminary results were very good.”
According to Cris Arens, president, CargoWise edi. “Our customers -- small, mid-size and larger freight forwarders -- have repeatedly validated CargoWise® Forwarder as a scalable, robust and economical application. In particular, they value the fact that CargoWise® Forwarder is designed by specialists with deep knowledge of the freight forwarding business. As an investment, CargoWise offers a far better alternative to an expensive, internally developed infrastructure.” |
