Customer Reviews
PC Bennett Solutions' Shipping Container Management has become an essential part of our business processes, enabling us to track incoming furniture containers from Asia. This has significantly streamlined and improved container management for our Ocean Freight team. It effectively organizes our freight documents and enables us to provide our customers with precise ETA for their orders.
Moreover, it is user-friendly, making it easy for our team to use, and it offers customization options to align with our unique workflow. PC Bennett Solutions' support team is always available to assist, ensuring our operations run smoothly.
In summary, PC Bennett Solutions' Shipping Container Management has revolutionized our container management processes at Dovetail Furniture.
The Shipping Container Management was part of our initial Acumatica setup for managing our in-transit imports when we went live in 2018. This customization has provided us the tools we need to manage and update container information throughout the entire process and give visibility of what’s happening to the rest of the company. Entering landed costs has also been streamlined by allowing our Purchasing department to add all landed costs for the container/individual items on one screen while still creating the appropriate landed cost documents for each vendor.
The initial configuration was complex and we had some challenges to overcome, but PC Bennett has been responsive to the few support issues we’ve encountered. Product updates for each new Acumatica build have been very quick and continually improves ease of use.
