Terrible option took a decent product right down to crapper when they did this. Its stalling more and more and we have to refresh 15-20 times a day just always waiting for it to go to next step very slow. > > Originally hey this is pretty good but since there so called update or new platform its gone to crap. Getting service is terrible def wouldn't recommend it to anyone anymore ----- ### "Do not recommend" — 1.0/5 > **Francois** | *28 August 2025* | Logistics & Supply Chain | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Friendly user, easy setup, cloud based TMS system. Clean and effective system. Easy to use and train new staff to use. > > **Cons**: Ever since Tailwind was sold to a US based company, the support is almost unexistent. We sometimes have to wait over 24 hrs only to get an answer, sometimes up to a week to get resolution. As an example, Vendor pay list has not been working for 48hrs, therefore unable to pay my carriers. Very frustrating. Planning to change to another TMS system very soon. ----- ### "Powerful Tool for Small to Medium Trucking Operations." — 3.0/5 > **Altaf** | *17 November 2020* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The biggest pro for tailwind is its customer service and development team who take your feedback very seriously and are always ready to help you out The software changes every day and if there is a feature or functionality that may not be available, a simple suggestion of yours might just be in the next update. Another pro of the tailwind software is the pricing. When compared to other TMS's, the tailwind system offers the same features of the enterprise and large suite transport systems bundled in an affordable system that you can really customize to fit your needs, and there is no initial setup cost like many other programs. Tailwind also offers free webinars every week for you to either brush up on the software or train a new employee which is very convenient. The system is online based so you are able to access it anywhere and at any time and does not require you to set up a server in your office like many others. One of our favorite features of this software are all the integration, the tailwind team has partnered up with the best service providers (Truckertools, Border Connect,RMIS etc), in the transportation industry to provide an immersed experience when using the software. > > **Cons**: There are not many cons to Tailwind but being an online-based system comes with its negatives as well, and the biggest downfall of the system is that it can be very sluggish at times taking a few seconds to load between screens, and does not fully load the page at times. The software also lacks the ability of end-user customization of documents and the interface. Another con is that the software is mostly designed as a full truckload system and lacks in features for the consolidation of LTL. The accounting portion could use some work as well. > > Tailwind is a must have for any trucking company, big or small. Using tailwind has really cut down the amount of time spent each month on administrative tasks. We are looking forward to growing with Tailwind and are excited to see the software evolve. ----- ### "Worthy of managing your transportation needs" — 5.0/5 > **Audrey** | *4 January 2022* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the ease of use. I have been able to train people remotely which is necessary at this time. Anyone I train seems to manage navigating it with ease. > > **Cons**: Nothing I can think of - it works fine for the functions I require of it. > > Automated BOLs - I have been working manually so long this is a small but necessary function. ----- ### "Operations Manager" — 4.0/5 > **Michelle** | *23 December 2021* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Fairly easy to use. Relatively straight forward. > > **Cons**: Poor transaction history and being able to see who did what in the system. Have to go to help desk for that. Not necessarily the right fit for a heavy haul operation, more suited towards brokering and more basic legal and OD loads. On that side it is fantastic. Cannot copy anything but orders - would be nice to copy quotes as well. Definite reporting limitations as well. Help lookup on specific topics is limited and not as detailed as it should be. Have to rely on helpdesk to answer some questions and it is frustrating to not be able to speak to a person and have to do it all through chat. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/23260/tailwind-tms?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/23260/tailwind-tms) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
