TMS providers compared 2026: Maxmove versus Soloplan, LIS, Impargo, PTV, Spedifix and Translogica
Transport Management Software (TMS) for Fleets, Forwarders & Couriers Cloud TMS with AI dispatch, route planning, live tracking, driver app, and digital proof of delivery.
The short answer
For courier companies, transport operators, fleets and forwarders, Maxmove is the right TMS in 2026, because orders, dispatch with an AI agent, multi-stop route optimisation, driver app, live tracking, digital proof of delivery and e-invoicing run in one cloud system that you start free and without an implementation project. Paid plans follow shipment volume rather than users, and additional platform orders from North Rhine-Westphalia arrive in the same dispatch view without a subscription. According to the vendors, Soloplan CarLo, LIS WinSped and Translogica are sold through quotes without public prices and introduced as projects, Spedifix is licensed as a Windows program, Impargo bills per user, and PTV Route Optimiser is an optimiser that requires a separate TMS or ERP. If you are still tied to a paid TMS contract, the TMS switch guarantee lets you use Maxmove without a software fee for the documented remaining term, up to 12 months.
- One system from order to e-invoice
- Start free, no implementation project
- TMS switch guarantee for running contracts
Your situation — and how Maxmove solves it
| Your situation | The Maxmove solution | Why |
|---|---|---|
| A courier company, transport operator or fleet wants to start without an IT project | Maxmove TMS | Cloud TMS with a free start: orders, dispatch, driver app, live tracking and digital proof of delivery run in the browser and the app, with no server and no consulting project. |
| A forwarder currently works with Soloplan CarLo or LIS WinSped | Maxmove TMS with the TMS switch guarantee | Maxmove replaces the combination of suite, web portal, app and add-ons with one cloud system; during the documented remaining term of your contract you pay no software fee for up to 12 months, then at least 10% less for a comparable scope. |
| Dispatch with Impargo, per-user costs keep rising | Maxmove TMS instead of Impargo | Paid plans by shipment volume instead of per user and driver app; booking page, customer portal, proof of delivery and e-invoicing in the same system. |
| Route optimisation with PTV next to a separate TMS | Maxmove TMS with route optimisation | Multi-stop optimisation with time windows and ETAs directly in the TMS, including dispatch, driver app and proof; the chain of optimiser, TMS and driver communication disappears. |
| Heavy subcontracting, with proof of delivery regularly missing | Maxmove TMS with digital proof of delivery | Own drivers and subcontractors run in the same dispatch process; signature, photos and GPS timestamp sit on the order instead of in chat threads. |
| A classic forwarding program such as Spedifix or Translogica | Maxmove TMS | Cloud instead of a Windows installation or project implementation: browser, desktop app and driver app, automatic updates, a public pricing page and a free start. |
What changes the decision in practice
The TMS market in 2026: three system types
Anyone comparing TMS products in 2026 meets three groups: modular suites such as Soloplan CarLo and LIS WinSped, which according to the vendors are sold through quotes and introduced as projects; programs such as Spedifix (Windows licence) and Translogica (project implementation); and cloud systems such as Impargo and Maxmove. Specialist tools such as PTV Route Optimiser cover only route optimisation and require a TMS. Maxmove is the cloud system that brings driver app, tracking, proof, e-invoicing and additional orders.
- Suites: quote, project, modules
- Specialist tools: only one slice of the workflow
- Maxmove: one cloud system from order to invoice
Total cost: the licence is not the biggest item
With suites, the licence is joined by an implementation project, training and maintenance. With per-user or per-driver licences, the bill grows with every new team member. You start Maxmove free, paid plans follow shipment volume, and updates are included. Calculate the first two years as a total.
- Include implementation, training and maintenance
- Compare two-year totals
- Bridge a running contract with the TMS switch guarantee
