Frequently Asked Questions
AXIOM-APPS
-
Do I need to integrate my TMS to use Axiom-Apps?No integration required — this is just one of the ways we're making advanced analytics more accessible to small-to-mid-size 3PLs and freight brokers. Our users start with a simple data extract from their TMS. We provide a template to make sure your columns match ours, then take you through an easy mapping process the first time you log in — it's that easy.
-
How long does it take to get up and running?You can start exploring on day one — really. As soon as you upload your TMS data, Axiom-Apps automatically detects every lane you operate on, every customer you have, every carrier you use, and every item you ship. Then it performs a series of complex calculations, so you can immediately see things like margin per lane, revenue per customer, cost per load, and more.
-
How much time do we need to invest as a user?This isn’t like one of those complex BI systems that requires a full headcount to operate. During your free trial, we recommend spending about one hour per week on the analytics activities we send you. It’s the best way to get set up properly and make sure your insights are aligned with your business goals. After that, most teams either designate one Axiom-Apps super user or rely on automated reporting. In fact, we have customers who get everything they need from scheduled reports and never log in at all.
-
What kind of reports can I get with Axiom-Apps?Even the most basic version of Axiom-Apps includes reports that update with your data — but we also offer automated shipment reporting as an add-on. Our most popular reports include: Carrier Cost Breakdown Carrier Rep Performance Late Shipment Predictions Item-Level Margins Customer-Volume Trends Profit & Costs by Lane Missing Lanes & Customers Revenue Predictions Profitability Updates And more... These reports are fully customizable and automatically delivered to you when you need them — so no more waiting for end-of-month or end-of-quarter recaps.
-
How are 3PLs and freight brokers using Axiom-Apps?Our customers come to us with a wide range of goals and use cases, but they usually fall into five key categories: Lane Analysis — What's happening on my lanes? How are they performing? How can I increase profitability? Customer Analysis — Are my volumes growing or shrinking? Have any customers gone missing? Are there retention risks? Carrier Analysis — Who are my best carriers per lane? How should I score them? How can I better manage carrier costs? Item-Level Analysis — What are my highest-margin items? Where can I find more high-profit loads? Assignment Analysis — Is my sales team effective? Who's performing well, and who might need support? If you have a use case in mind that we didn't touch on here, just reach out! Generally speaking, if it's in your TMS, then we can likely do something with it.
-
Do I need a data analyst to use this?Not at all. Axiom-Apps is designed for freight brokers, not data scientists. When you get started, we’ll send you a series of analytics activities to familiarize you with the system — and hopefully teach you a thing or two about analytics that you didn’t know before!
-
Do we need to clean up our data before we get started?Absolutely not! One of the super powers of our systems is the ability to transform your data on the fly, so no need to waste valuable time doing it yourself.
-
How is Axiom-Apps different from other analytics tools?Axiom-Apps is built from the ground up for 3PLs and freight brokers. No clunky configurations or generic BI interpretations of transportation nuances. Our systems already understand things like freight classes, accessorials, modes, and more — so it's ready to deliver transportation-specific insights your team can act on right away.
-
How secure is my data?Axiom-Apps doesn't store or share your data — it's completely deleted from our servers as soon as you log out. We also follow industry best practices for data security. Reach out if you'd like more specifics.
