Products
Choose the product that fits your business. Each one runs in its own private workspace, backed by the same secure, fully managed service.
Business operations
Stock, purchasing, vehicle maintenance, IT support and HR, all in one place for your whole business.
Container yard management
Run your container yard from gate to invoice: check containers in and out, see the whole yard at a glance and bill storage automatically.
Automatic container recognition
Reads container numbers from your gate cameras, so every container in and out is logged automatically with a checked number and a photo.
Modules are licensed individually. Switch on what you need today and add more as you grow.
Track stock across every warehouse, from deliveries and internal requests to stock counts and valuations, with a complete history of every movement.
See what needs re-ordering and what you last paid, compare supplier prices over time and review how much you spend with each supplier.
Job cards, reported faults and service reminders, with a full parts and repair history for every vehicle.
Record fuel from supplier invoices and see what each vehicle uses and costs to run, month by month.
Stay on top of fitness certificates, insurance and licences for every vehicle: what’s due, what it will cost and what has lapsed.
The cost and lifespan of every tyre, the safety equipment issued to each person, and who is holding which returnable gas cylinder.
A register of every laptop, phone and device: who has it, where it is, its warranty and when it was last checked. Works alongside Snipe-IT and Atera.
Staff raise requests by email or through a simple online form, and your team tracks each one against agreed response times, with a library of common fixes.
Employee records, your organisation chart and holiday requests, in a workspace that lets you keep several screens open side by side.
Everything a container yard needs, from the gate to the invoice, with a live view of the whole yard.
Record every container arriving and leaving, with its condition, photos and booking. Anything that doesn’t match is flagged for your team to review.
See your whole yard in 3D, with every container shown where it sits and updated as it moves, so you always know what’s where.
Plan and record container moves, manage bookings and see the full history of every container, including how long it has been on site.
Follow your trucks and equipment on a live map, with drivers’ working time feeding straight into billing.
Charge customers automatically for every day a container stays past its free period, and export statements whenever you need them.
Your customers can sign in to see their own containers, statements and reports, and nothing else.
Automatic container recognition for gates and yards: every container in and out is read, checked and photographed.
Connect your gate cameras and every passing container number is read automatically, whether it’s written across or down the container.
Every number is checked against the international container-numbering standard and the official register of container owners, so mistakes are flagged rather than slipping through.
Every read keeps the picture it came from, with the camera and direction of travel, so you can settle any question about when a container arrived or left.
Gate staff can scan containers using the web browser on any phone. There’s no app to install.
A small program at your site links your cameras to your workspace securely. Your cameras are never exposed to the internet and no network changes are needed.
Daily activity, time-on-site and gate reports to download as PDF or spreadsheet, plus a live 3D view of where each container sits.
Your organisation’s information is stored separately from every other customer’s and is never shared.
Add your logo, colours and name, so the workspace looks and feels like your own from day one.
Every workspace has its own web address and an encrypted connection, from the very first sign-in.
Daily backups, your own currency and time zone, and your data available to take with you whenever you need it.
