or maybe the fact you can sent a email through a form on the website. Thats your definition of digitalization in 2016?

Kontainers does the same.

Xeneta is more on data analytics of freight rates and doesn't allow bookings. So not a competitor to Kontainers

So I went to the site and you can't make a booking there. So you have to email in for a quote. Where is the digitalization there?

Think this commenter needs to get their facts right first.

First inttra doesn't allow shipper to make the booking it is purely a tool for forwarders. What Kontainers are doing is allow the shipper to do that them selves, and because of this behaviour is actually a pretty big deal. So inttra is not a competitor. Kontainer is removing this step, your making a comment on something you obviously know nothing about.

You should read the article properly before making comments. A schedule doesn't suddenly depart. What the article is saying is that the the data doesn't get into the distribution system fast enough but you can still ring up to get that schedule.
