8 Best Project44 Alternatives & Competitors (2026)

Freightos operates a digital freight marketplace focused on instant ocean and air quotes with integrated booking and basic tracking. It targets mid-market shippers seeking transparent pricing and faster rate comparison than traditional forwarders. Unlike Flexport's full-service managed model Freightos emphasizes self-service marketplace access with fewer bundled customs or fulfillment services.

FourKites specializes in supply chain visibility and predictive analytics with strong rail and truck coverage plus some ocean support. It is popular with large retailers needing exception management and ETA accuracy. It lacks Flexport's forwarding execution and fulfillment capabilities focusing instead on data overlays for existing carrier relationships.

ShipBob provides e-commerce fulfillment warehousing and last-mile shipping with inventory distributed across multiple locations. It targets DTC brands needing fast delivery rather than international freight forwarding. While it includes some shipping tools it cannot replicate Flexport's ocean air or customs brokerage services.

Uber Freight offers a digital platform for truckload and some intermodal booking with upfront pricing and carrier matching. It appeals to shippers wanting simpler domestic and cross-border trucking execution. It does not match Flexport's global ocean air or customs depth making it better suited for North American truck-heavy flows.

CargoWise is a comprehensive logistics ERP used by freight forwarders and 3PLs for end-to-end operations including customs and finance. It is highly configurable for large logistics providers. Unlike Flexport's shipper-facing platform it is primarily a back-office system for service providers rather than a direct shipper alternative.

Echo provides managed transportation services with technology for truckload LTL and some intermodal. It focuses on North American shippers seeking carrier management and spend optimization. It offers less international ocean and air coverage than Flexport and minimal customs handling.

C.H. Robinson is a large traditional 3PL offering freight brokerage across truck ocean and air plus some supply chain consulting. It has extensive carrier relationships but relies more on human account management than Flexport's digital platform and Control Tower.
