How does it work?
Software as a Service
The eCargo solution is based on the Software as a Service business model, where the software is hosted by eCargo and used by customers over the internet. Customers do not pay to own the software itself, rather they pay for using it. How much you pay is simply determined by how many users you require and what electronic interfaces are in place.
This model enables businesses to use it as a low-cost way to obtain the same benefits of commercially licensed, internally operated software without the associated complexity and high initial cost.
Technology
The eCargo software is developed using Delphi to run on the Microsoft .NET framework. This, in conjunction with a relational multi-tenanted SQL Server database, means eCargo can easily manage the load and complexity of freight logistics.
eCargo’s current software solutions comprise of a Windows-based application and a web-based application. The team is currently focused on migrating all Windows application functionality to a new enhanced Web front-end. This will provide a complete platform to deliver new and regular enhancements to customers, reducing barriers to deployment.
