Overview

3PL Systems TMS is an automated transportation management system built specifically for third-party logistics providers. It handles freight planning, execution, and optimization with 3PL-specific workflows.

Our verdict

Best for domestic US and Canada freight brokers and 3PLs that want a long-established, broker-focused TMS with deep carrier and load-board integrations rather than warehouse fulfillment tooling.

Strengths

  • Purpose-built for freight brokers and 3PLs, founded in 2005 with a codebase rewritten in 2015 for multi-mode dispatch
  • Broad integration coverage including QuickBooks and Dynamics 365 accounting, DAT and Truckstop capacity, EDI, and parcel, plus 100-plus LTL carrier connections
  • Public REST API with open developer documentation, including a bi-directional accounting API
  • Hands-on support with phone, email, a dedicated support portal, on-demand training, and a 24/7 emergency line

Watch-outs

  • No public pricing and no free trial, so prospects must contact the vendor for a quote
  • Thin third-party review base, and reviewers note occasional bugs and intricate setup
  • No published security certifications or status page
