What Mandata customers say
With Mandata, you literally right-click, press ‘split’, and it’s done instantly. You can even allocate the percentage of that rate to whichever leg you need. For me, that put Mandata head and shoulders above the other TMS systems out there.
I can't recommend Mandata more, great system, and great service. The best by far. The TMS and tracker are essential pieces of equipment in our everyday transport operations.
One of the main benefits is we’ve reduced time we spend on the phone to drivers. This is time we can spend elsewhere, whether it’s planning the next day or even looking for more work.
Mandata Go is much more streamlined and is better in every aspect, from transport planning and ePod to invoicing.
