How Logistics & Transportation Companies Increase Agility, Visibility, and Control

As we approach the one-year mark of the COVID-19 crisis wreaking havoc on global supply chains, many companies continue to struggle keeping up with consumer demand. And this, as well as tightening freight capacity and rising shipping rates, are fueling the widespread growth of today’s logistics and transportation industry.

The question then becomes, just how are these logistics and transportation companies  supposed to stay ahead of their competitors and best serve their customers? Companies that remain on their legacy and outdated technologies are experiencing a broken B2B integration environment.

Today’s logistics and manufacturing companies cannot afford to deal with broken B2B integrations, they need a modernized platform that allows them more agility and flexibility than they’ve ever experienced.

The answer lies in modern cloud integration technology.
