McLeod LoadMaster

Program Overview

LoadMaster is McLeod Software's transportation management system for asset-based carriers. It connects dispatch and load execution with accounting, driver work, customer access, native EDI, documents, reporting and transportation integrations.

For an IBM i carrier, LoadMaster belongs on the replacement list when the business wants a mature carrier platform with deep accounting and a large integration catalog. McLeod supports customer-hosted, third-party cloud and McLeod-hosted deployments. That flexibility helps only after the team decides who will own the environment, the interfaces and the cutover.
