Transportial vs 3Gtms
3Gtms is a cloud-based transportation management system designed for mid-market shippers and third-party logistics providers in North America. It offers strong order management and carrier management capabilities. However, 3Gtms is US-focused and lacks the European regulatory compliance, OTM5 support, and road freight specialization that Transportial provides.

Why teams switch from 3Gtms
European Compliance Built-in
Transportial handles EU driving regulations (561/2006), CMR documents, and OTM5 data standards natively. 3Gtms is designed for US domestic freight and lacks European regulatory support.
Fleet-First Approach
Transportial manages your own fleet with vehicle profiles, driver hours, and IoT telematics. 3Gtms is designed for shippers who use external carriers, not own-fleet operators.
Visual Planning Tools
Our interactive Plan Board and VRP solver give dispatchers powerful visual planning capabilities. 3Gtms relies on more traditional list-based order management.
Multi-tenant for LSPs
Logistics service providers can manage multiple customers and organizations on Transportial. 3Gtms is designed primarily for single-shipper deployments.
