Why is this 5-10x cheaper than Llamasoft or Optilogic?
Enterprise solutions are built for Fortune 500 companies with massive budgets and IT teams. We built this for mid-market companies who need the same optimization power without the complexity—or the $500K+ price tag.
Cost: $2-6K/month vs. $500K+ annually (5-10x cheaper)
Speed: Same-day setup vs. 6-12 month implementations
Ease: Excel input, 1-click reports vs. dedicated teams required
Support: Ongoing expert help included vs. limited vendor support
Same optimization engine, designed for companies like yours.
How long until I see ROI?
Immediate: You'll save 38 hours on your
first project
(40 hrs → 2 hrs). At $150/hr analyst rate, that's $5,700 saved
immediately.
First Month: Run 2-3 projects in the
time it used to
take for one. That's $10K-15K in labor savings alone, plus better optimization
decisions worth
$200K-500K annually.
Year 1: Typical ROI is 8-10x. Software
costs
$24K-72K/year, you save $200K-500K in network costs + $24K in labor = $224K-524K
total value.
ROI breaks even after first project.
Can I really set up in 2 hours?
Yes! It's that simple: Click the link → Create your account → Choose your plan and pay → You're done. Start using it immediately. No waiting, no sales calls, no implementation delays. You're up and running in minutes.
Software (Self-Service): Once you've created your account and paid, you can immediately start using the software. Upload 2 Excel files (facilities, demand), configure constraints, and run your first optimization—all in about 2 hours. Training is included (4 hours).
Consulting: 2-week delivery. Week 1: Data gathering and validation. Week 2: Analysis and presentation. You get expert-led recommendations with executive-ready PowerPoints.
Should I start with consulting or software?
Start with consulting if: You need
quick wins, have an
urgent decision (new DC location), or are new to network optimization.
Start with software if: You run
scenarios frequently
(quarterly reviews), have internal analysts, or want ongoing optimization
capability.
Best value (recommended): Start with
consulting for
expert-led baseline optimization, then license software for ongoing capability.
This delivers
quick wins + continuous improvement = maximum ROI.
How do I get my data in?
Easy! Two intuitive Excel files:
1. Input Network Data (your current network): Facilities, transportation lanes, and demand. Export from your ERP/WMS or use our SQL query templates for SAP/Oracle.
2. Input Configuration File (your settings): Costs, constraints, and optimization parameters. Download our template from the Resources page and customize it.
Upload both files—takes about 30 minutes. We provide templates, SQL queries, and step-by-step guides in our Resources section to make it easy.
