ProDocks costs 90% less, launches in 30 minutes, and requires zero IT. Carriers book via link, drivers QR check-in, BOLs are captured — no gaming, no implementation projects, no overpaying.
You signed up for OpenDock thinking you'd get predictable dock scheduling. What you got instead: an enterprise pricing bill, an implementation project that took months, carrier portal training that nobody uses, and the same chaos you started with.
The problem isn't dock scheduling. The problem is OpenDock's two-sided marketplace model. Carriers are incentivized to game the system — booking wrong load types to get better times, creating phantom pickups, canceling last-minute. Your dock plan dissolves by 2pm.
ProDocks is built differently. We designed for ops teams who run labor close to the bone and need predictability, not complexity. You control the schedule. Carriers self-book with zero friction. Drivers check themselves in. BOLs are captured at the dock. All for 90% less than what you're paying today.
OpenDock charges enterprise rates per location (custom quotes required). ProDocks is a fraction of that. Stop burning budget on enterprise yard management features you'll never use.
Configure docks, hours, and rules in 30 minutes. Your ops team does it. No implementation project, no IT tickets, no waiting for vendors.
No carrier gaming. No booking wrong load types to exploit gaps. No phantom pickups. You set the rules, carriers follow them.
Stop paying for features you don't need. Start saving 90% on dock scheduling.
