Myfreight have received national and international recognition and demand for their products and currently service over 200 enterprises within Australia and Internationally.

Myfreight offers three different tiers of freight management to offer our clients flexibility based on their individual needs. Myfreight’s user experience design was conducted in reference to the end user of the product – blue collar workers in warehouse environments. Understanding the preferences and day to day challenges of the end user, who likely engages in repetitious work, coordinates high volumes of freight bookings and works within strict deadlines, they opted to simplify the design of the system. Working within the cloud ensures that users never have to save or reload webpages – they can work continuously and hassle free. Myfreight can deliver remote training to hundreds of people within minutes. Their system has been designed to be extremely user intuitive and minimise human error. Anyone can be trained to use the system, with minimal disruption to business operations. Across their hundreds of clients and individual integrations, MyFreight have never come across a business they are unable to integrate with. Working within the cloud enables their system to be flexible enough to adapt to each customer.
One of the most distinctive features of their platform is that Myfreight and its umbrella products can be individually branded to suit each customer. This is highly favourable to customers who prefer their internal business systems to be company branded. This assists by enabling instant identification of freight arriving in their store or warehouse and instantaneous detection of track and trace information. It also supports their customers business growth, through brand exposure.
