Cons	Descartes Systems Group Interaction with other programs such as Geotab. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Manhattan Associates 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. Incentivized Srikanth Doddapaneni Lead Consultant Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Descartes Systems Group Descartes is significantly more complex and provides much greater features than Peoplenet. Their customer service is also markedly better. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Manhattan Associates 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.
