ShipBackHome › Compare › Magaya

The ShipBackHome alternative to Magaya: for barrel and container shippers, not warehouses and brokers.

Magaya is a freight and supply chain platform for forwarders, NVOCCs, warehouses and customs brokers, sold through a sales conversation. If you run a barrel and container shipping business, you need something smaller and more specific: bookings, invoices, the cash and Zelle you already collect, container cutoffs, and tracking your customers can check themselves. ShipBackHome does that, with published prices and a free plan.
