“We believe MercuryGate’s recognition as a Challenger underscores our singular focus on driving value in transportation management — an area that has never been more complex.”
“From capacity issues driven by driver shortages and port congestion to higher fuel costs and insurance rates, supply chain disruptions in 2021 remained pervasive. That’s why our customers tell us a transportation specialist with a full-service TMS and hundreds of years of collective transportation experience like MercuryGate is a strategic must-have to stay the course — whatever the challenge — and achieve performance goals.”
The Gartner Magic Quadrant for TMS report positions vendors within a quadrant based upon various criteria including completeness of vision and ability to execute. The report assesses vendors based on completeness of vision and ability to execute which further categorizes into: marketing strategy and sales strategy, offering (product) strategy, innovation, geographic strategy, etc.
“We believe this recognition by Gartner aligns with our industry strength as one of the few TMS vendors with a singular focus on transportation and validates the value MercuryGate delivers to not only our customers but to the industry,” said MercuryGate Chief Strategy Officer Jeffrey Varon. “Our market understanding and customer experience, including the launch of our more intuitive user interface and Voice of the Customer feedback program, reinforces our ability to address the needs that supply chain executives have to address the seismic shift in e-commerce and their customers’ heightened delivery expectations.”
