We tried CargoWise, but it was too complicated for our business. Many clicks and windows to do a simple task. What made us choose Logitude was its simplicity, reasonable pricing, and evolving features.

Category
Logitude
CargoWise
Built for
Mid-sized and enterprise forwardersAlso a good fit for small teams. One platform for quotes, shipments, accounting, CRM and the customer portal.
The largest global enterprisesDesigned for the world’s largest forwarders, with the setup and overhead that comes with that.
Getting started
Start free, with guided onboardingEase of setup rated 8.8 on G2. The Logitude team guides you through set-up and data migration, so you can go live smoothly without hiring outside consultants or pausing operations.
Extremely long and costly implementationCommonly reported to take 6–12 months or more, and to require paid, certified third-party consultants.
Ease of use
9.1 on G2Reviewers describe it as simple, intuitive and quick for new staff to learn. The workflow follows the order operations teams already work in, and fields can be edited and customized, so teams get productive fast without long training.
7.6 on G2Reviewers note a steep learning curve and many windows for simple tasks. Data is entered using codes across many fields, so new staff take longer to become productive and often need formal training before they can work on their own.
Support
9.3 on G2One of Logitude’s biggest strengths, and among the highest support scores in freight software. You work directly with the Logitude team, at no extra cost, and reviewers single out support as fast, professional and always available.
6.7 on G2The lowest score in its G2 profile. Support is ticket-based, reviewers describe slow responses, and issues are often redirected to paid partner consultants, so getting help can cost extra.
Modern technology
HighA modern cloud platform with a clean interface and AI built in.
MediumPowerful, but built up over many years of additions, with a code-heavy interface.
No-code platform
YesYour team builds fields, workflows and automations without developers.
NoChanges typically need specialists or certified consultants.
Set-up fees
NoneStart free and go live without an upfront implementation bill.
YesSet-up costs apply, on top of long implementation projects.
Pricing
Predictable subscriptionReasonable pricing is one of the reasons customers give for choosing Logitude. You know your software cost in advance, so you can budget with confidence and grow volumes without a bigger bill.
Per-transaction feesEvery shipment adds to the bill, so costs grow as you grow and are hard to predict.

AI Agents

Routine work runs on its own.

Start from a library of ready agents, or have your own team set up agents for the tasks only your business does.
