Logistics management software

Logistics management software is designed to help businesses plan, execute, and optimize the movement of goods across the supply chain. It provides tools to track shipments, manage inventory, schedule deliveries, and coordinate warehouse and fleet operations. Modern logistics software centralizes logistics workflows and enables real-time visibility into orders, inventory levels, and transportation status—helping teams streamline operations and reduce costs.

The best logistics software is the one that fits your operation—not the other way around. Most off-the-shelf logistics platforms are rigid, expensive to customize, and slow to adapt as your workflows evolve. Glide is different. It lets your operations team build exactly what they need—apps for inventory, deliveries, warehouse tracking, and more—without relying on developers. You can connect real-time data, automate processes, and iterate fast as your business changes. Whether you're scaling dispatch, managing returns, or optimizing warehouse flow, Glide gives you a flexible foundation that grows with your logistics operation.

WMS stands for Warehouse Management System. It's a specialized type of logistics software that helps control and optimize warehouse operations, including inventory tracking, picking, packing, shipping, and receiving. A WMS ensures inventory is accurately managed and helps warehouse teams increase efficiency, reduce errors, and maintain visibility into product movement. As a powerful no code platform for building custom business apps, Glide allows you to build custom WMS tools with barcode scanning, real-time stock levels, and automated reorder alerts.

Logistics software spans several categories depending on the area of the supply chain it supports:

• Transportation Management System (TMS): Plans, executes, and tracks freight and deliveries.
• Warehouse Management System (WMS): Manages inventory, storage, and fulfillment workflows.
• Fleet Management Software: Monitors and maintains delivery vehicle performance and routes.
• Order Management Software (OMS): Coordinates sales orders, fulfillment, and delivery tracking. You can learn more about Glide for Sales here.

• Last-Mile Delivery Software: Optimizes dispatch, routing, and proof-of-delivery workflows.
• Glide can be used to build tools across all of these categories—centralized in one fully customizable platform.
