Softlink Global says more than 30 freight forwarders across over 10 countries moved onto its cloud-based platform during April, bringing more than 1,000 users into a single connected system.
The shift reflects a broader move away from fragmented local systems toward unified global platforms.
The migrations covered major logistics markets across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, Africa and North America, including India, the UAE, Hong Kong, Singapore, the United Kingdom, Kenya and the United States.
According to Softlink Global, freight companies increasingly want one platform where operations, finance and compliance run together in real time.
The recent transition programme included operational and financial data migration across regions, workflow standardisation between offices and multiple go-lives completed without disrupting daily operations.
ERP adoption in freight forwarding has historically been slowed by fears over migration risk, downtime and multi-country complexity.
The latest rollout suggests those concerns are weakening as companies prioritise end-to-end visibility and faster decision-making.
Businesses moving to unified platforms typically gain live visibility across shipments and branches, stronger financial control and reduced dependence on emails, spreadsheets and manual follow-up.
For the logistics sector, digital backbone strategies are becoming less optional and more essential as supply chains grow more international and data-driven.
