Transportial vs Alpega
Alpega Group was formed in 2017 when Castik Capital bought Wolters Kluwer’s transport services unit. Based in Brussels with offices across Europe, it combines Alpega TMS and Transport Execution for shippers, TenderEasy for freight tenders, and the Teleroute, Wtransnet and BursaTransport/123cargo freight exchanges, with a network of 80,000 verified carriers. It suits shippers that tender and steer freight across road, rail, sea and air carriers, and carriers looking for loads. Transportial is built for the carriers and LSPs that run the freight: own-fleet planning, a driver app and invoicing, with a Teleroute connector to post loads and find vehicles.

How Transportial differs from Alpega
Own-fleet planning with VRP
Transportial gives carriers and LSPs a drag-and-drop plan board and a VRP solver that assigns orders to their own vehicles by capacity, time windows, vehicle type and EU driving-time rules. Alpega TMS is aimed at shippers planning across carriers.
Pricing engine and sales invoicing
Transportial prices each order with its own pricing engine and invoices customers from the executed trips. Alpega TMS calculates, audits and accrues freight costs on the shipper side.
Published prices, free start
Transportial charges per transaction, from €0.50 down to €0.01 with volume, plus fees for users or vehicles beyond the free allowance, and has a free Starter tier. Alpega does not publish TMS prices.
Teleroute from inside the TMS
Transportial’s integration framework (REST API, webhooks, EDIFACT mapping, 75+ connectors) includes Teleroute, so carriers can post loads and find vehicles on Alpega’s exchange without leaving their TMS.
