Blue Yonder Luminate Logistics vs. Truckstop Load Board

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?

When I am looking to find a load for our trucks, I would use DAT load board first. I go on Truckstop.com to find loads, just in case there might be a load posted that doesn't appear on the DAT. In my opinion, Truckstop.com has too many windows open when I'm looking for more details on a particular load.

• 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.

Incentivized

• Too many windows open to check details of a load
• old loads are not taken down for days
• Screen is not as friendly as other load boards
• Not easy on the eyes...too busy

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.
