Load documents and inspection records can be kept with appointments and synchronized to the web platform. Reports cover detention and carrier performance. DataDocks connects to WMS, TMS, and ERP systems through APIs, and lists integrations including Microsoft Power BI, Microsoft Entra SSO, NetSuite ERP, Oracle Fusion Cloud, SAP Business ByDesign, and SAP S/4HANA. The company describes the product as SOC 2 compliant and says its team helps configure facilities and onboard staff and carriers. Pricing is by quote based on facility and requirements; no fixed plan price is stated.

ProDocks is dock scheduling software for warehouse teams, centered on appointment booking and live dock visibility. Carriers can reserve a slot through a shared link, with no login required. Teams can set scheduling rules by dock door, day, and load type; auto-confirmation and conflict detection help manage the calendar. At the gate, drivers scan a QR code, which records their arrival time and alerts the dock team. Workers can photograph bills of lading or damage and attach those images to shipment records. Automated emails cover confirmation, arrival, unloading, and completion. Analytics track dwell time, throughput, on-time performance, and carrier compliance, with CSV export. REST API access and webhooks support integration and status updates; listed security features include role-based controls, audit logs, encryption, and SSO. It runs on Android, iOS, and web, and key booking and dock functions work on phones and tablets. The free plan covers one warehouse; Multi-Warehouse costs $25, monthly. It is offered in the United States, Canada, and Australia, but not in the EU, EEA, UK, or Switzerland.
