EUVIC Yard Management System (YMS) vs Yardman

EUVIC Yard Management System (YMS) is web software for coordinating appointments, gates, yards and docks at logistics and distribution sites. Suppliers can use WEBbooking to arrange appointments and pre-schedule visits. Staff can schedule manually or import data through WMS, TMS and ERP integrations. The system sequences vehicles for dock assignments, parking and maneuvering areas, and dock schedules, including multi-loading and multi-unloading. AutomaticGATE combines software and dedicated hardware to identify and register drivers and vehicles at the gatehouse. Gatehouse teams can monitor gates, totems and information kiosks, and verify loads with MIFARE and RFID readers. YMS tracks vehicles in real time and sends delay or idle-time notifications, including ePOD warnings. Warehouse tools include capacity planning with intake limits and automated SMS or pager messages to drivers. Reporting covers scheduled personalized reports, delivery KPIs, efficiency statistics and dashboards. EUVIC says the Azure-based solution includes 99.9% availability and 24/7 support. Pricing is on request.

Yardman is yard management system software for businesses, warehouses and distribution centers. Teams can configure a yard topology and use planning tools to organize yard activity. The product includes driver and truck management, delivery dock check-ins, gate check-in, trailer inventory and dock-door management. Smart barcodes and QR codes are intended to speed processes, while a live trailer yard view helps teams manage bottlenecks and security concerns. Yardman offers a mobile application, with a download page referencing Google Play and an installation file for newer Huawei phones. Its RESTful API exchanges JSON over HTTP and uses JWT token authentication; the service also offers a custom API, webhooks and a documented Zapier integration. Optional two-factor authentication uses an authenticator app and backup codes. Yardman says data is backed up daily in multiple locations, with backups encrypted using GPG, and that HTTPS encrypts data in transit. Support is available through a ticket system. Plans start at €29.00 per month, and a 30-day trial is available. There is no free plan.
