Microsoft's Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management allows users to use predictive insights and intelligence from AI and Internet of Things (IoT) across planning, production, inventory, warehouse, and transportation management to maximize operational efficiency, product quality, and profitability. It replaces the SCM capabilities of the former Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations (Dynamics AX), splitting them off from Dynamics 365 Finance, in order to provide more flexible pricing and allowing customers to buy only what they need.

Product Usage

Pros and Cons

An easy and free of hassle mobile application
Precise location of a truck in a map view
Identify possible delays to stops

Things done well

Intelligence, it gets stuck in some areas of the country
Integration with [other] apps, we would appreciate a collaboration with [other] tracking apps that can share the same information if they are being installed [on] the same device
A better and clean dashboard, its face needs a renewal, a fresh look, adapted to the current trends

Things done poorly

Descartes Logistics Technology Platform has a control tower view which we have used a lot. It permits us to check on [the] real-time status of every truck, also has the features and option to communicate with the trucks' ELD, which gives us the most liable information about his current location and status.

Event management
ELD real-time information
Analysis of shipment data

Most Important Features 3.4.21

Positive, we can do our things faster than ever with using the information shown in the platform, avoiding unnecessary calls and interactions
Increasing the liability of the gathered information about trucks' actual/real location
A solution to improving our overall shipment visibility

Return on Investment

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.
