Internet Portals
McLeod Software has completely re-engineered our web access portals for LoadMaster and PowerBroker in ways that will help you create a better branded internet presence for your company, and more importantly, create a better experience for your customers, carriers, and drivers.
Recruiting and Driver Applications Made Easy
Driver applicants can fill out an application via the carrier’s website with just a few clicks. When the driver completes the online application, a Driver Application record is created directly in LoadMaster, and the hiring process starts.
Branding
McLeod’s Web Portals provide you with your own branded internet portal into your LoadMaster or PowerBroker system, and make it easy for your customers, company drivers, and carriers to identify and work with you online.
Manage Users
McLeod knows that security is at the forefront when allowing access to your environment. We’ve made it simple to control and maintain secure access of the Portals. Web users can be managed easily for customers, carriers, factoring companies, drivers, and locations in the Master files. To maintain a secure environment, you can turn off or lock a web user’s access at any time.
Customer Portal
The Customer Portal provides the carrier’s or broker’s customer with real-time access to all of their load information 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This new customer portal provides assigned logins to customers, so they have secure access to their orders, delivered and in-transit shipments, with a variety of display options to enhance their experience and response time. The portals give customers the ability to easily download document images with retrieval options.
Map views are available on orders displaying plotted mobile comm positions or positions from callin records. The visibility of orders reduces the need for calls and emails into the carrier or broker’s dispatch for ETA and “where’s my truck?” type calls.
Driver Portal
With the new Driver Portal for carriers running the McLeod LoadMaster dispatch system, drivers get a secure login for instant access to their settlement and pay information. If a carrier elects to use the LoadMaster Driver Choice module, drivers have immediate access to the available matched loads that fit their choices in a predefined profile. This feature is especially useful for fleets with significant numbers of owner/operators. Carriers can more easily match drivers with the loads they want to haul and let them choose the load that best fits what’s important to them.
Factoring Portal
McLeod’s Factoring Company Portal provides a new, contemporary tool for brokers and carriers who work with factoring companies which allows them to quickly find the status of movements and reduce the calls necessary. Factoring companies have a clear and concise view in a payment pipeline for all the carriers or brokers. Factoring clerks get easy access to view the status of movements that have been paid or pending, in-progress or delivered, and pay information, such as line haul and other pay records, including advances to better understand the overall net pay for each movement. This portal provides the ability to add images for documentation, speeding up the settlement process.
Location Portal
McLeod’s new Location Portal provides a tool for carriers and brokers to give the staff of shippers at a specific location a physical shipping site, warehouse, or terminal, with visibility to loads coming in to and going out of their location.
