FourKites vs. Infor Nexus

We are using this tool for years in our organization; it is playing a significant role in our organization. I would suggest it to those companies that are looking for efficient supply chain visibility software. It will give you information about automated capacity matching, thus you must give it a try.

It is good in integrating with multiple 3rd party service providers to create a single source of truth. It does not have user friendly GUI that delays in getting the information required by the user. Any new requirements always need investment and time to develop. It allows user to create report template and schedule reports to personal email that help to save time.
