ALPHA LOADING vs EasyCargo

ALPHA LOADING creates 3D loading plans for cartons, pallets, trucks and containers from item lists. Spreadsheet rows can be pasted even when columns are shuffled or units are mixed; the software previews and validates the data before applying it. Users can drag, rotate and lock parcels, while server checks reject invalid placements and prevent overlaps, floating boxes and overloads. Plans show a numbered loading order with animated playback and step-by-step viewing. The interactive 3D viewer offers preset angles and dimensioned 2D views; the maker says it runs at 60 frames per second with 1,000 parcels. There are 26 preset containers and trucks, and users can add custom equipment. Plans can be exported as PDF, PNG or CSV, and public interactive 3D links can be opened without an account or licence. Discovery is free with monthly simulation, SKU, container, export and history limits. Pro costs €79.99 a year, also listed as €6.67/month. Business costs €479.90 a year, also listed as €39.99/month; Enterprise pricing is custom.

EasyCargo is an online load-planning tool for placing cargo in trucks and containers while accounting for applied constraints and vehicle weight limits. Its engine calculates placements, and an interactive 3D view lets users inspect a plan and reposition or rotate boxes by drag and drop. A shipment can contain more than 10,000 items across up to 250 types. Planning rules include destination priority groups, non-stackable groups, virtual-wall separation, and item-position constraints. Users can create printable reports, reuse saved plans, and share plans online. Integrations include Excel import and export, SAP ERP, a REST API, and Make.com workflows. The API handles basic input and output, but load calculations must be run by signing into the application. EasyCargo runs in a browser without installation and requires an internet connection. Its Android and iOS apps display plans made in the web application; downloaded plans can be viewed offline, while planning is done on a computer online. Pricing includes a 10-day trial, a One-day Ticket at $9.70, paid once, a Month plan at $79 a month, and a Year plan at $799 a year. One-day tickets are sold in packs of at least 10.
