Alternatives & comparison

A Flexible Alternative to Rigid Enterprise SaaS TMS.

Modern modular software replacing legacy logistics systems — same compliance depth, none of the implementation quarters, module paywalls or driver training days.

Why fleets move off legacy logistics software

The complaints we hear most, and what we do differently.

Live in a week, not a quarter

No process-mapping workshops or integration project. Import a manifest, invite the drivers, run a route — the same day if you want.

Per vehicle, not per module

One transparent per-vehicle price. No implementation fee, no per-stop charge, and no paywall between you and proof of delivery.

Modular, not monolithic

Start with the driver app beside your existing planner, add dispatcher mission control when the manifest flow is proven.

Adoption without training days

A three-click delivery flow in 17 languages means drivers who have never used logistics software finish their first shift unaided.

Your data stays portable

Manifests import from the spreadsheets you already produce, and audit trails, routes and proof records export whenever you ask.

Built for EU road work

Driving-hours limits, cross-border zones and multilingual crews are core behaviour here — not a regional add-on module.

Switching questions

Do we have to replace our whole logistics stack?

No. Depot2Door is modular: many fleets start with the driver ePOD app alongside an existing planning system, then move dispatch across once the manifest flow is proven. Import runs on the files you already produce.

How long does implementation take compared with an enterprise TMS?

Enterprise TMS rollouts are typically measured in quarters because they need process mapping, integration work and driver training. Depot2Door starts with a manifest file and a phone: most fleets run a live route in the first week.

What about the data locked in our legacy system?

Historical routes export from most systems as spreadsheets, which the universal importer reads directly with saved column mappings. Nothing has to be re-keyed and there is no per-record migration fee.

Is a lightweight platform enough for cross-border work?

Lightweight does not mean thin. EU 561/2006 schedule validation, geofenced border alerts, override audit trails and exportable compliance records are standard — the parts most delivery apps skip.
