> C3 Reservations addresses the challenges of dock appointment scheduling with intelligent planning, automated scheduling, real-time communication and productive reporting.&#10;&#10;How does C3 reservations achieve this?&#10;&#10;1-PLAN : Planning is C3 Reservations’ specialty. You can build a plan for each warehouse that will dictate who can deliver which product, at which facility and in what time period. This ensures that your carriers and vendors respect your priorities and limitations when they request their appointments.&#10;&#10;2- SCHEDULE : C3 Reservations’ self-serve portal ensures that your carriers and vendors have 24/7 access to real-time availability at each of your facilities. Instead of a first-come, first-serve concept, they are now restricted to the plan that you’ve established. You’ll receive what you need, when you need it - automatically. Any exceptions are channelled into a task list ensuring you never miss anything.&#10;&#10;3- COMMUNICATE : While C3 Reservations’ self-serve portal eliminates all of the phone calls, emails and faxes involved with building a schedule, you still need to know that all parties are receiving the information they need. C3 Reservations allows you to broadcast information to the relevant parties as events occur either as system-to-system integration or automated emails. In addition, carriers or vendors can attach electronic documents (such as packing slips or bill of ladings) to each appointment. Anyone involved in the appointment process can now view the status and relevant details pertaining to the appointment at any time.&#10;&#10;4- MEASURE : You can’t improve something you can’t measure; this is why C3 Reservations provides you with a wealth of information to monitor your operation. Operational and highly configurable reports ensure that you have all of the information required to manage your day-to-day operation.

## Reviews

### "A very easy to use, intuitive System that is customisable to your business requirements" — 5.0/5

> **Andrew** | *9 December 2023* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Visual nature of the system allows for a great overview of the work being performed over any time period. An easy to use and intuitive interface that users can easily work with is another great feature
> 
> **Cons**: Reporting functions are not the best. All of the data is there and can be extracted, however it feels a little clunky and needs some work to bring it to the level of the rest of the system
> 
> Nothing but positive\! Great sales team, great implementation team and process and once we started using the system there is a super efficient Support team as well

### "C3 Reservations Review" — 5.0/5

> **Edmund** | *18 January 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The configurability down to the site level. Having the opportunity to configure constraints differently across all sites was very helpful. Before we had no way to implement the constraints. We just had to put the information in a site banner and hope that appointments that broke those constraints weren't scheduled.
> 
> **Cons**: It's not a big con, but we wish we could see a full weeklong schedule rather than one day at a time.
> 
> Overall our experience with C3 has been great. From our account manager at C3 to the implementation team, everyone was amazing to work with. We receive responses on issues in a timely manner and have not had any performance issues. All-in-all, it has been a great partnership, so far.

### "Grocer" — 4.0/5

> **Luke** | *5 August 2019* | Logistics & Supply Chain | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This system provides visibility across the board and has done wonders for the warehouse processes
> 
> **Cons**: The reporting functionality is incredibly difficult to use and not easy to figure out. There has been very little guidance on how to figure it out.
> 
> The implementation team was very thorough and truly worked to understand our needs. I think there is a lot of potential as a result of C3 and look forward to what the future holds.

### "Reservations and Yard Manager Customer" — 5.0/5

> **Chris** | *16 May 2023* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very customizable and allowed us to include all of our business requirements in the design and implementation process.
> 
> **Cons**: Reporting could be better.  C3 helps us get raw reports through their system but it is not as user friendly as other reporting tools.
> 
> Customer service is fantastic.  When submitting questions or tickets we normally receive feedback the same day, worst case scenario it is next business day.

-----

### "Professional and Knowledgeable Implementation Team" — 5.0/5

> **Alissa** | *9 May 2023* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The tool has provided us visibility to our schedule and helped us adjust staffing as needed.The support team is efficient and always helpful.The tool is fairly intuitive as far as setting up templates and new locations.
> 
> **Cons**: Reporting is less intuitive than the rest of the tool. For me, the hardest part is finding the right field that I am looking for.  Communication on changes deployed on updates would be helpful as well.
> 
> I have had only positive experiences with C3 Reservations. The support team is always helpful and timely when I've opened a ticket for either an issue or just a general inquiry.  They have been able to make recommendations for additional features that fill a gap we didn't realize was possible.  We have received only positive feedback from our logistics team as well as our warehouse users.
