Blue Yonder Luminate Logistics vs. FourKites

It is more suited for a NON manufacturing site. It may not be the best with integrating with Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs). Do you have any kind of Wellness Reporting via dashboarding? Do you offer line supply via Directed work? What is your support model?

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.

• Provides great and reliable data to give feedback to your employees.
• Gives you data to see the true picture on effectiveness in youf production areas.
• The tools and reports are endless and can be used by the front line supervisor and the management team to see trend lines on performance and gaps that need to be closed.

• I like its feature of MacroPoint that helps me to get the location visibility and provides me detailed analytical solutions.
• Not only in tracking but it has also given me the vision to analyze which will be the best suitable carriers for me that could match our network, thus it increases the efficiency and creates greater margins.
• For me, it is a very useful platform. Its automation programs give easiness in may daily work.

• Quite user un-friendly database design; DB table names and column names don't give any clue about their purpose.
• Data separation is non-effective. This is NOT a software for a 3PL (3rd party logistics company). Multiple clients sharing the same warehouse share tables - such as the Item Master table - without a clear indication of the client's name.
• Several different tables for ItemMaster, way too complicated.
• System would reject new Items if the Item Color sent via EDI hasn't been codified before the Item Master upload. That is a problem for fashion clients that create many new color codes every season.
• Software requires SERVER reboot for every new change in order for the change to be effective. Unacceptable when many clients are on the same server and on a distributed organization.

• I do not have any major complaint against Fourkites.
• It is going well and keeps every single feature I want in its services.
• The price should be revised and should be made more comfortable for the users.

Once these systems get installed, it becomes hard to justify switching out for different provider. For facilities that are using RedPrairie, it's unlikely we would change in the near future and should be renewing.

I found RedPraire to be the best system I have used of the years.

RedPrairie is more expensive than Infor's solution that we used. However, it met our customer requirements much better than the Infor solution. Manhattan was similarly priced, but seemed to be less modification-friendly.
