McLeod Software announced its latest release of its LoadMaster, PowerBroker and LoadMaster LTL enterprise application software products. Version 11.2 comes on the heels of rapid growth for several consecutive years, including last year’s record 44 percent mark. McLeod says its growth has fueled significant investment in creating new functionality and business process automation for carriers and logistics companies.
Some of the new features included in Version 11.2 are:
Multicurrency and Canadian operations
LoadMaster and PowerBroker systems now give McLeod customers the ability to operate with multiple currency transaction capabilities and non‐US taxes. This new capability now makes the enterprise software available for Canadian transportation and logistics companies.
Enhanced Capabilities and More Automation for McLeod Customers
LoadMaster and PowerBroker now include a Radius Search capability. For brokers, finding the best carrier using the carrier history search now includes a radius search on both the origin and destination for every load to allow them to find the best options quickly. This feature also makes it easier for carriers to find the right backhaul opportunities during their planning process.
A new tab for Market Rate Guidance has been developed for LoadMaster and PowerBroker. This feature makes it simpler for brokers to get rate guidance by combining information from TransCore DAT and Internet Truckstop with the customer’s own historical data on rates for a particular lane in a single easy‐to‐use location.
