  • I don't get very many orders that have to be routed through this portal.
  • If it has been a while since logging in, I have to request that my account be unlocked.
  • While there was great functionality, the ability to custom tailor the platform to a unique business process was limited.

It is a powered tool that can be used by any of the current logistics (and why not?, non-logistics companies), that need a reliable, accurate, and well-based amount of information of the fleet, with ease. Using the [latest] technologies, integrating a wide view of transportation, inventory, [and] custom status on a single but not simple platform.

Manhattan Active Supply Chain is user friendly and easy to navigate. It's good with inventory management. Small variances in inventory
can have big repercussions in your supply chain and I prefer to use a stable product, so I feel the best choice is Manhattan Active Supply Chain. Also the tool's good with planning and forecasting, it provides sophisticated tools that anticipate demand.
