DockSlot vs Mobiledock

DockSlot is web software for small warehouse teams that accept carrier booking requests, confirm dock times, create manual appointments, and manage a daily queue. Carriers can request available times through a public link without a DockSlot account or password, and warehouse staff review requests before confirmation. Staff can also enter phone or email requests, then confirm, reject, cancel, mark no-shows, or update appointments as arrived, loading, or completed. The Schedule page shows one warehouse day grouped by dock door. Teams can configure dock doors, appointment types, weekly hours, and booking instructions. Each booking accepts up to three PDF, JPG, or PNG files, with a 10 MB limit per file. Admins can download CSV reports or create read-only report links that can be disabled or expire. Appointment history records key changes. DockSlot compares arrival-to-completion dwell time with the account’s free-time setting as detention evidence, but does not calculate charges or create invoices. Accounts are created by invite; there is no self-serve signup. DockSlot is available through early-access demos. Billing and integrations are not part of the available early-access workflows. Uploaded carrier documents are private to the warehouse team. Pricing is on request.

Mobiledock is dock management software for scheduling commercial vehicle arrivals and departures. It automates dock allocation and bookings, with status updates for arrivals, departures, no-shows and overstays. A live timeline shows dock activity and lets staff move bookings, change durations, reassign docks and update statuses. Configurable dashboards surface operational information such as carrier performance and booking volumes. Drivers can book on a mobile device, provide an estimated arrival time and show a booking QR code when they arrive. They can also check in from a phone or tablet without installing an app. License plate recognition, QR codes and PINs can operate access hardware such as boom gates, doors and bollards. Mobiledock provides inbound APIs, outbound webhooks and marketplace integrations, with options to build, embed or white-label integrations. The service is hosted in Australian AWS data centres. The company says it encrypts data in transit using TLS and encrypts stored data, and has a SOC 2 Type 2 attestation. Pricing is available on request; a trial can be arranged by contacting the company.
