I've used it for about five months. The ETA update system is the biggest issue - notifications arrive late or don't update at all, so drivers sit idle at ramps and we burned through a week's worth of driver hours plus two hefty detention invoices last month. With 30 trucks on my desk, that unreliable timing costs real money and support's canned replies didn't fix a thing.
I've used ShipsGo for eight months; at first the subscription looked steep, but when their API started pushing real-time ETA shifts into our TMS for my 100-truck dispatch in the Northeast, it cut the frantic status calls that used to eat an hour a day. Pricey compared with free trackers, yes - but the labor it saved made it worth the spend for us.
...sat on hold for 40 minutes while my driver waited at the dock; ShipsGo's chat kept saying "looking into it" and then nobody ever followed up. Lost a $120 detention fee and a delivery window - their support cost me time and money.
Bottom line: getting started with ShipsGo was faster than I expected - I had live tracks up before lunch. The carrier-connect wizard auto-matched my container numbers and populated the live map in about twenty minutes, which honestly made my day. Only snag was one carrier needing extra auth, but support responded quickly and it was sorted by afternoon.
Rate it, and the next carrier reading this page sees what you found.
