The problems
Still Manually Gathering Booking Details from Emails and Documents Every Day?
Booking information arrives through emails, forms and attachments. Your team gathers, checks and enters it before a booking can be created.
Details spread across documents and emails
Booking information spans emails, attachments and booking forms.
Different formats, every time
Every customer and partner sends booking details in a different layout.
Missing or incomplete information in requests
A missing date, reference or cargo detail means a follow-up before booking.
Repeated pre-booking checks
Captured information still needs checking against your workflow's requirements before booking.
Growing booking volumes
More requests means more time spent gathering and entering data.
