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.
SlotMaster
SlotMaster is dock scheduling software for booking inbound and outbound appointments. Warehouse, distribution, manufacturing, and third-party logistics teams can view appointments by timeline, calendar, or list across docks. Carriers reserve available slots through a public link without creating an account. Each dock can have separate operating hours, slot durations, buffer times, and daily booking limits. Booking statuses run from booked and confirmed through arrival recorded, in progress, completed, cancelled, and no-show. The interface and carrier portal support 14 languages. Higher plans exchange booking data with WMS, TMS, or ERP systems through REST API and webhooks. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with row-level organization policies and server-side checks for anonymous bookings. SlotMaster offers assisted pilots with configuration, carrier onboarding templates, training, and a review call. Essentials costs €99 a month; Professional costs €199 a month; Business costs €449 a month. A 10-day trial is available, with no free plan.
