In their own words
DockSync
DockSync is a browser-based platform for scheduling dock activity and managing warehouse bookings, bays, supplier performance and driver check-ins. Warehouse teams can create bookings, or suppliers can book deliveries, collections, returns and other planned activity themselves. Drivers check in by scanning a QR code with a smartphone, without needing a driver app; staff can then send SMS instructions from the dashboard. The calendar offers month, week and day views, with controls for operating hours, restricted hours and blackout dates. Reports cover supplier activity, on-time performance, completion rates, delays, missed bookings and bay occupancy, with CSV export. Starter and Growth include API access; Enterprise lists webhooks and SSO/SAML. Accounts currently cover one warehouse, while Enterprise offers volume pricing for multiple sites; a unified multi-warehouse dashboard is listed as roadmap. Starter costs £79 a month for one warehouse and up to eight bays. Growth is £179 a month for one warehouse with unlimited bays. The 30-day trial includes Growth features, requires no payment details and does not automatically bill at the end.
Opendock
Opendock is cloud-based dock scheduling software connecting shippers, carriers, and brokers through an online platform. It combines dock appointments, driver check-in, yard management, and SmartGate for warehouse and logistics operations. Carriers can book, reschedule, and update appointments through a self-service portal, while warehouse teams receive real-time arrival and appointment updates. Check-in supports automated validation, self-service kiosks, and appointment synchronization. Yard management tracks assets in real time and lets teams assign moves with drag-and-drop. SmartGate uses AI-powered cameras to record arrivals and departures and provide visual evidence. APIs and webhooks connect with TMS, WMS, ERP, yard, and business-intelligence systems; examples include Blue Yonder, SAP, Manhattan Associates, Oracle, Infios, Project44, and Camelot Software. Customers and partners build integrations, with Opendock providing support and consulting. Enterprise includes an MCP connector for compatible tools to query live operational data using existing permissions. Appointments, arrivals, check-ins, and departures are logged and linked to verified carriers. Pricing is available on request, and the homepage asks for a demo.
