Due to the unique nature of our product, our shipping costs were substantial, so we turned to Cerasis to find a cost-reduction solution. Their customized web tools have not only resulted in cost savings but they have also substantially cut the amount of work we have to do internally. It almost immediately cut our customers service calls in half because our customers were automatically sent an email, letting them know when the freight shipped, what was on the truck, and when it was scheduled to arrive. Besides reducing overall freight costs, working with Cerasis has delivered other benefits. Now we only get one freight bill, and the Cerasis system handles full accounting, invoice auditing and negotiation with freight companies. The web tools are great, and that mean a lot less administration for us.

We got hooked on Cerasis’ integration of technology. They connected their system to ours, offering a seamless solution for our distribution centers and stores, which has resulted in managing overall costs. In addition, Cerasis continues to be innovative and stay abreast of all the latest lading and DOT requirements. It’s like having our own expert on staff.

Arrow Magnolia needed to find an easier way to audit freight invoices, get carrier quotes & process shipments, as we were taking too much time to compare rates and too much internal resources to audit. Cerasis came to us and discussed our challenges working with us to get a TMS and solutions implemented in a way that fit our need with great support all the way through implementation. Cerasis understands the freight business and what it takes to manage transportation more efficiently all while providing better reporting & auditing. We love partnering with Cerasis as Arrow Magnolia now has a partner who has great expertise and a quick response rate to any issues that might arise in shipping.

When we first approached Cerasis our carrier rates were too high & we were spending too much time and energy on resolving damage & loss claims resulting in damaged profitability and wasted time trying to chase down carriers for claims. Cerasis showed us their TMS and easy to use tools, offering better negotiated rates with a deep carrier database, and an expert approach to resolving freight claims on our behalf. We noticed a big difference in our partnership with Cerasis as we had a simpler to use system to manage transportation, more efficient billing processes, and fantastic customer support when it came to reporting. This partnership with Cerasis allowed us to focus back on our labor management and growing the business as we weren’t distracted by shipping problems any more.

Scotch Plaid was having issues effectively invoicing and adding freight to invoices as well as constraints on visibility into shipments going to customers and coming inbound yielding a desire to find a system that allowed us to source carriers in one-website as our employees were spending too much time going to many websites and making several calls just to get carrier quotes for our shipments. Cerasis came to us to truly understands our shipping problems and offered tools to solve these problems in addition to great reporting in order to continually improve our management of transportation. Scotch Plaid employees have time to work on other projects assigned, visibility to carriers, transit information, reporting making it easy to monitor our trends and forecast our transportation.

The VMC Group was struggling with increasing shipping costs and overall management of our transportation processes resulting in lackluster customer service, later shipments, and excessive costs. Cerasis came to VMC Group with a comprehensive plan to manage logistics at multiple locations demonstrating immediate cost savings all while having an excellent management & customer service team. We were delightfully surprised with Their efficiency, accuracy of paper work, and customer service. We have formed a relationship with our Cerasis contacts.

Mogas Industries had a chronic problem with managing 100s of freight invoices each week manually filling out Bills-of-Lading resulting in several keying errors when we left off information. We trusted Cerasis to solve our shipping problems because they offered a system to create online bills-of-lading, resulting in decreased keying errors, the system supported building out contact database, and now we have all of our invoices consolidated down to just one per week making general accounting more efficient around transportation costs. We were able to eliminate sales calls from freight reps and now we were able to make a profit on our shipments, with a built in incentive pricing structure built into the Cerasis TMS, the Cerasis Rater. We’ve been a customer for over 18 years and that speaks for the great partnership we’ve enjoyed with Cerasis itself!

It was very important for Lockwood to verify our rates with our service provider and we received several quotes from various 3PLs allowing us to clearly see we were paying too much for our transportation. Cerasis stood out as they not only provided better rates, but demonstrated they would offer the same groups of carriers, provide us with the carrier rates and would allow us to pick the carrier of our choosing. The Cerasis TMS, the Cerasis Rater provided better choices and is simple to use. What we loved about our partnership with Cerasis was their transparency. There were no surprises. We now have a true partner. When shipping problems occur, Cerasis assists in the resolution.

ChemOne, before our partnership with Cerasis, was getting multiple quotes from multiple LTL carriers but had limited staff and resources to get enough options that would satisfy our customer base. Cerasis was very knowledgeable about freight and knew exactly how to solve our shipping problems. Their TMS, the Cerasis Rater, showed how it could alleviate our issues by offering multiple quotes at one time. We also had some unique requests for regulatory reasons that were outside of the system - we worked with Cerasis and they were able to come up with solutions for these items that were outside of the norm. We really love how flexible Cerasis is in a tough marketplace, truly adapting to what their customers need. We are proud to be a long time Cerasis customer!

Coleman Hanna needed better shipping rates and better service to certain lane segments as some of our customers were frustrated with the rates we had with only one carrier. Cerasis truly understood our shipping problems and went to work on getting better rates across the board with many carriers who were optimal for our freight. We like the functionality of the Cerasis Rater and how they are easily able to serve up multiple carrier rates in one system
