McLeod Software as rolled out Version 25.2 of its transportation management system (TMS), introducing a redesigned user experience across LoadMaster, PowerBroker, DocumentPower, and MPact platforms.

The new tools are designed to reduce complexity, elevate visibility, and help fleets with better decision-making, the company claims in a news release.

“Working hand-in-hand with our customers, we completely re-engineered the user experience with this release — transforming the way they work by delivering faster performance, greater power, and a refreshingly intuitive feel,” said Tom McLeod, CEO and founder of McLeod Software. “Whether they’re planning loads, handling customer calls, or managing financials, we’re continuing our mission to reduce friction, eliminate delays, and help our customers across the industry work with more speed, control, and confidence to take their business to the next level.”

The new LoadMaster gives dispatch teams full access to planning, driver management, and load tracking with internet connection.

The Dispatch Slide Out consolidates all driver activity — past, present and upcoming — into one single panel, and tools such as Automatch and Equipment Alerts help with decision-making, McLeod says.
