    In the furniture industry, there are often situations that require a less conventional approach - and, for example, shipping a piece of furniture in two parcels, but... on the same tracking number. Linker Cloud's employees are true business partners and are able to fulfill such custom requests.

    I would recommend Track-POD for any every business related deliveries. At time we have deadlines to meet and sometimes we need original copies of documents to be delivered some distance away, whether for signing or viewing. We would always used Track-POD because they are fast and very convenient.

    Appian is well suited for optimization of routes and contrary to what Appian claims, it is not well suited for scheduling.

    • Appian is excellent for use in both the analysis arena and ongoing operations support. The speed to solution and quality of solution is at the top of the market.
    • The configurability of the system gives the user the flexibility to address almost any route problem imaginable. Analysts have the ability to recreate the "world" to fit their customer's needs rather than forcing the customer into a predetermined framework.
    • The installation of the software is flexible and can be structured to fit any work group's format, from a centralized core to a distributed mobile analysis team.

    • Transit times are sometimes inaccurate/inconsistent.
    • Software can slow down as a route file undergoes many changes.
    • Large quantity of input files can sometimes create confusion/inconsistency when route files are shared by multiple users.

    Many issues with the system and I will probably recommend other type of software if the question arises. Because of the investment my company has made, I will use the system for now.

    W2S (Way2Send) was a pain in the back for us as we could not perform most basic operations ourselves. Almost each task had to be performed by system admins. In contrary, Linker Cloud Fulfillment Platform enables easily performing basic operations by ourselves which takes down the friction in our cooperation with the fulfillment center.

    FedEx is an ok delivery service, however they are very outdated compared to Track-POD. Track-POD is more technologically advanced, especially since they provide real time tracking and this allows users to be fully aware at all times.

    Appian was best suited for an analysis environment both functionally and from a cost structure standpoint. Other packages are targeting ongoing operations and their cost structures reflect that goal. The purely analytical environment can underestimated in these situations. There is definitely a need for non operation specific analysis tools in the marketplace.
