Hated the onboarding - getting CargoWise up and running was a total nightmare. After 18 years running my own trucks in the Southeast, their setup ate three weeks, data migraion scrambled invoices and support responded like molasses, cost me days of billings and a pissed-off broker.
...CargoWise support actually called back in about 20 minutes, jumped into our session, found a bad EDI field and stayed on the line until the carrier accepted the load. I run 15 trucks out of the Southwest and after 10 years in dispatch, that kind of patient, hands-on help earns them a 4/5 from me.
I've used CargoWise for four years. I'm a dispatcher for a 60-truck fleet in the Southeast, and when a customs hold threatened a load last month an agent who actually knew our account picked up, stayed on the line, and had us cleared in under an hour - that kind of real follow-through is why we stick with it. Only gripe is slower response late at night, but daytime support is solid, so I’m giving it four stars.
Bottom line: CargoWise's support team resolved a cross-border customs routing error the same day, which saved us significant time. What made me particularly happy was a single support engineer who stayed on the phone with our dispatcher until manifest and tariff codes were corrected, shaving two days off expected delays. Clear communication and that hands-on follow-through kept our 55-truck operation across the Southeast moving without costly downtime.
