CargoTMS review
A broad carrier-management suite with accessible entry pricing and clear operational limits.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
CargoTMS is a web-based transport management platform for road transport companies, owner-operators, dispatch teams, freight brokers, and larger logistics operations. Its carrier-management capabilities cover carrier profiles, compliance documents, expiry alerts, portal access, performance metrics, grouping, and segmentation. The wider platform also handles transport orders, dispatch, fleet and driver records, invoicing, payment-status tracking, reports, fuel tracking, client portals, and profitability analysis. It fits teams that want carrier operations and transport workflows in one system rather than a narrowly focused carrier database.
The published plans show a tiered monthly structure. CargoTMS Starter costs €39 per month for small fleets, with up to 300 orders, 2 dispatchers, 5 vehicles, 5 drivers, 250 MB of storage, and 300 documents per month. CargoTMS Growth costs €79 per month and raises those limits to 1,500 orders, 5 dispatchers, 15 vehicles, 15 drivers, 1 GB of storage, and 1,500 documents per month. CargoTMS Professional costs €149 per month for high-volume operations and adds API access, advanced reports, priority support, and custom branding, alongside higher operational limits. Enterprise offers custom pricing, unlimited operational scale, API access, advanced reports, priority support, and multi-branch support. A 60-day trial gives teams time to assess fit before committing.
CargoTMS stands out through the breadth of its carrier workflow. Teams can store company, contact, tax, banking, address, and licence details; share assignments and trip documents through a secure carrier portal; and track confirmation, delivery, and CMR submission rates. Dispatchers can create and assign orders, monitor status, and connect those activities to financial reporting. The trade-off is that the platform is web-only, while higher-level capabilities such as API access and advanced reports are reserved for Professional and Enterprise. Choose CargoTMS if carrier compliance, dispatch, and financial workflows need to sit together; consider a narrower tool if you only need basic carrier records.
