What we Learned in the First-Ever G2 Grid® Report for Freight Management Software

by | Industry

Reflecting an acceleration in the adoption of freight management software by freight forwarders, 3PLs, NVOCCs, and other logistics service providers (LSPs), G2 has published its first-ever Grid® Report for Freight Management, and Magaya is thrilled to be named a Leader in this inaugural report.

What’s going on in the world of freight management software?

Why are more LSPs turning to digitization and automation software to support their business objectives? The freight forwarding industry has been slow to warm to the adoption of new technologies as compared to other sectors, but external factors are now forcing more businesses to modernize. As we all get accustomed to technology proliferating our everyday lives, consumer expectations have risen, and customers expect the same digital-first experience when dealing with a freight forwarder as they do when they order essentials from Amazon. Doing business by fax, phone, and email isn’t cutting it anymore for today’s digitally-savvy consumers.

In addition to handling increasingly high customer expectations, LSPs are also faced with skyrocketing shipping prices, unforeseen port delays, and complex import/export regulations. It’s a lot to keep track of, and the old way of working with spreadsheets and emails isn’t feasible.

As new players in the industry turn to technology for their competitive advantage, more businesses are taking note. And that’s where freight management software comes in.

 

How does G2 compile its rankings?

“The Grid® represents the democratic voice of real freight forwarding software users, rather than the subjective opinion of one analyst,” said Tom Pringle, VP Market Research at G2. “Magaya’s Leader ranking is a testament to the company’s success in customer satisfaction, product direction, and market penetration.”

Magaya Supply Chain achieved the coveted Leader ranking on the Summer 2021 Grid® Report for Freight Management by receiving positive reviews, with 4.6 stars out of 5 from more than 60 verified users.

According to G2, “G2 rates products and sellers based on reviews gathered from our user community, as well as data aggregated from online sources and social networks. We apply a unique algorithm (v3.0) to this data to calculate the Satisfaction and Market Presence scores in real time.”
