About GoFreight Inc.
GoFreight is a cloud-native freight forwarding software platform designed for small to mid-size freight forwarders and customs brokers.

What people say about GoFreight
Our synthesis across ~130 G2 and Capterra reviews, 2025-2026. No fabricated quotes, this is the consistent pattern across reviews and third-party analyses.
Most praised
- Modern, intuitive UI vs. legacy systems like CargoWise
- Strong value for the price for small forwarders
- Good built-in document generation for shipping docs
- Responsive support team with quick response times
Most cited complaints
- Reporting and analytics need improvement for complex operations
- Limited EDI connections compared to CargoWise
- Some features still maturing for very complex routing
What we found testing it
What's great
- Implementation in roughly 4 to 8 weeks rather than the quarters CargoWise and Descartes require, which changes the business case completely for a forwarder that cannot dedicate a project team to a software rollout
- Built cloud-native for ocean and air import and export with the NVOCC workflows included, so security filing, house and master bill handling, and arrival notices are core rather than configured
- Covers the full operational span for a mid-sized forwarder in one platform, including quotation, warehouse, container tracking, customer portal, and accounting, with the vendor citing more than 1,000 customers and 6,000 daily users
Watch-outs
- The 4.8/5 across 88 G2 reviews figure is vendor-cited from March 2026 and we could not independently verify it, which is exactly the kind of number buyers should confirm on the live G2 page before it influences a decision
- Reviewers report the system slowing during peak periods, which is a meaningful operational complaint for a forwarder whose busiest hours are precisely when documentation has to move
- Customs coverage is US-centric; forwarders needing entry filing across European or Asian jurisdictions will find the depth well short of CargoWise or Descartes
GoFreight funding & ownership
| Round | Amount | Date | Lead investor |
|---|---|---|---|
| Seed | Undisclosed | 2019-2020 | Undisclosed |
GoFreight is growing in the SMB freight forwarder segment. Limited public funding data adds risk, but the product has strong G2 ratings and an active customer base. Good for forwarders that outgrow basic tools but aren't ready for CargoWise.

GoFreight FAQs
Does GoFreight handle air freight and ocean freight?
Yes. GoFreight covers air freight (AWB, HAWB), ocean FCL and LCL (B/L, HBL), trucking, and customs brokerage workflows in one platform.
How does GoFreight compare to Magaya?
GoFreight and Magaya target similar SMB forwarders. GoFreight is generally seen as easier to set up with a cleaner UI; Magaya has a longer track record and deeper warehouse management features.
Is GoFreight suitable for customs brokerage only (no forwarding)?
GoFreight has customs brokerage modules (ABI/ACE filing, ISF) but is primarily designed for forwarders who also do customs. Pure customs-only brokers may find dedicated CBP-focused tools a better fit.
