Overview

Cargoson lets you send info between your transportation management software and Boomerang Distribution automatically — no code required.

Using a TMS is the first step to optimizing your transport and logistics. It allows you to save time, money and CO2 emissions by having all of your carriers on one dashboard.

If your company or partner is using Boomerang Distribution, you can take it a step further: skip the manual steps and automate the shipping process.

Boomerang Distribution TMS integration features

If you're using the Boomerang Distribution warehousing and fulfillment services, you can ask Boomerang Distribution to place transport orders directly from your own shipping software account.

Transparency by access to your warehouse movements

You can let your warehousing service provider place transport bookings using their own systems.

However, to increase transparency for you and your customers, you can grant permissions to Boomerang Distribution to place transport orders in your name, through the shipping software you use.

Based on the agreement between you and Boomerang Distribution, they will place the booking to a specific carrier based on your decision criteria - size of goods, direction etc.

If Boomerang Distribution uses Cargoson to book shipments on behalf of your company, you can see both the shipments booked directly by you and the ones booked by Boomerang Distribution on the same dashboard.

This allows you to to be up to date with all of your warehouse movements: who and what was ordered, when it was sent out and received, and which carrier handled the transport.

Shipment tracking

The tracking link will be saved for every shipment and can be opened by clicking on it. You can access it everytime without needing to request information from the warehouse/fulfillment provider.

Automatic tracking milestones on your dashboard

To save time, the shipment's tracking milestones are automatically updated based on the info saved in the carrier's system. You can see the status directly on your dashboard without opening the tracking link. This allows you to stay up to date with all of your warehouse loadings and deliveries, and any delays that might occur.

Your time is valuable

If you use multiple carriers, we believe that using one system to work with all of them is the most efficient use of your time and resources.

Skip the manual work

Your contacts, orders and shipment data already exists in your ERP/WMS/eCommerce software. Are you copy-pasting them to the Boomerang Distribution system?

Instead, make use of it: integrate your system with Cargoson and your data will be exchanged with the Boomerang Distribution system automatically! This will also avoid human errors.

Pick and choose which carriers you like

The carriers you want to use is your decision, not our business.

Cargoson is not a middleman or a forwarder, but your transportation management software.

Our carrier database is extensive, but you can add missing carriers by simply contacting Cargoson support.

All your transport bookings could be placed the same way.
Data is exchanged with Boomerang Distribution warehouse software automatically.
Simple API: One integration from your business software will cover all your present and future carrier integrations.
