software to get remote access to the database and
update the status of the product on road they are
carrying in their vehicle.

consuming but also inefficient.

delivering products but that can have more number of
warehouses. This results in higher number of stops and
warehousing charges.

software helps in tracking the route that will improve

so anyone with even low logistic background can use it
for tracking goods and shipping them. This reduces
overhead cost.
