How does Getswift compare to Convoy and Uber Freight apps in terms of app functionality and benefits for clients?
It's interesting that GSW's IPO back in Oct 2016 didn't even mention Uber Freight and Convoy as competitors, however I suspect these are GSW's major competitors. GSW is hoping on integration with Amazon as no1 white label logistics software solution, however Amazon seems to be seriously backing Convoy to be their software solution to logistics tracking/intelligence. Uber seems to be trying address the reliability of transport in the whole supply-chain of getting a product to a customer by purchasing autonomous trucks company, Otto. Essentially, Uber Freight is trying to be a one-stop shop for clients as a logistics solution. This is a different approach to both GSW and Convoy who both are acting as a primarily software interface between the supplier, the driver and the customer but not performing the freight itself.
