Where Traqo Wins

What Traqo does differently from Alpega

One platform, not a product family

Alpega's TMS, TenderEasy, freight exchanges and Smart Booking are products that work together. Traqo's auctions, dispatch, tracking, yard, EXIM, ePOD and settlement are one login and one data model.

Your own carriers, on WhatsApp

Your transporters join reverse auctions from WhatsApp — no portal, no login — and Traqo customers cut freight cost about 11%.

SIM tracking — no hardware

Truck-level tracking through the driver's own SIM, with nothing to install and no telematics partner to connect.

Yard built in

Gate passes, dock scheduling and a live yard map run in the same platform as dispatch; Alpega books dock slots.

Published pricing

Traqo's plans and a pricing calculator are on traqo.ai/pricing. Alpega publishes no price for its TMS.

Live in 7 days

Traqo's no-code platform goes live in a week, with the ERP connector, carriers and tracking set up by Traqo.

Honest Assessment

Where Alpega has the edge

We believe in honest comparisons. Here's where Alpega genuinely leads.

Europe's freight exchanges

Alpega owns Teleroute, Wtransnet and 123cargo, with 80,000+ verified carriers — spot capacity on demand that Traqo, which runs your own carrier base, does not offer.

Tenders across every mode

TenderEasy runs multi-round tenders across road, rail, sea and air, with spot bidding and rate benchmarking, and ocean booking through INTTRA.

SAP and analyst recognition

Native SAP S/4HANA integration with templates for SAP ECC, Oracle and Dynamics, and a Challenger in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Transportation Management Systems.
