AbaOnline © Range of Transport Software Programs

We have known for a long time that the transport industry is not made up of only the Multi-million Rand corporations. Over the years we have been inundated by requests from the small to medium-size transporters (and transport brokers), looking for specialized transport software to run their operations – but the cost of the AbaTrans Professional in-house software applications was just too high for them to afford.

These transporters have resorted to using complex spreadsheets, word processing and other inadequate software to try to operate professionally. They have also found that these off-the-shelf software and accounting packages are useless as an operational or decision-making tool for a transporter.

With the advent of better communications technology and affordable high-speed internet lines such as ADSL and 3G, our technical department have developed an extremely cost-effective method of being able to provide most of our AbaTrans software applications as online versions - via the Internet.

The AbaOnline © range of software programs includes:

• AbaLoad © - Debtors and Load Management
• AbaWarehouse © - Warehousing and Load Consolidation
• AbaFleet © - Workshop Maintenance and Fleet Management

AbaTrans Online makes our comprehensive range of specialized transport software programs even more accessible and affordable - suitable for all transporters - from the largest to the smallest start-up transport company.

What are the benefits to you?

• Your major benefit is that the AbaTrans Online software programs incorporate all of the most important functionality that is found in our larger in-house applications, including management and statistical reporting.
• You don’t pay for expensive software development costs as you would for an in-house application because you only pay a license fee to lease the right to use the AbaTrans Online application(s).
• Your computing hardware and software outlay is minimal and easy to operate.
• You don’t have to pay for on-site installation, training, support and travel costs.
• We provide online database and administration support so we can fix any data / operator errors quickly and easily – you don’t have to wait hours for us to arrive at your offices. A simple email, skype chat or video message or normal phone call does the trick.
• Security of your important data is even higher than it would be if it formed part of an in-house system at your premises – all your data is stored (and backed up daily) to a number of secure online locations around the world – a perfect system of back up. Now the criminals can steal your computers – you will never have to recapture months and years of data again – because the thieves can’t walk out the door with it! Just replace your computers, install the software again and you are up and running immediately.
• Every online application comes with a comprehensive step-by-step instruction manual so it’s easy to learn and to train new staff members.
• You can operate your software 24 hours a day, from literally anywhere in the world – your office, your home, on the road - all you need is a good reliable ADSL, Wireless or 3G internet connection and your laptop! How impressive would it be to call up a customer’s latest load or accounting history right there in his office via your 3G connection?
• You provide us with your company logo and other company details that you want to appear on all your “public” documents such as invoices, statements, etc. We incorporate these into the Application software for you.
• All documents such as quotes, invoices, credit notes, statements, load confirmations, etc. can be produced in a PDF file format which can be attached to an e-mail for sending. No more snail-mail costs.
• When we make modifications, enhancements or release upgrades for your chosen AbaTrans Online software program, you will automatically receive these – free of charge. The software is clever enough to check for these upgrades without you even having to tell it to do so.
• When the time comes for you to expand your operations and you find that you need your very own customized in-house AbaTrans software application, we can guarantee that all your existing data will not be lost – just simply transferred to your new in-house AbaTrans software system.
