About Gopigeon
GoPigeon is a transport management solution that operates as a multi-carrier shipping platform. As a result of this combination, the platform allows you for efficient, optimized delivery service. It can facilitate domestic and overseas deliveries with its carrier network from India.
The GoPigeon company was established in 2015 as a transport management solution. It has received an ISO 14000 certification for its efforts toward developing a sustainable delivery supply chain. The post-purchase experience platform acquired the TMS platform in August 2017, roughly after 2 years.
The company has provided integrated services with Narvar, allowing its customers access to a wide carrier library to choose from. The optimized delivery model also allows you to optimize the last-mile delivery and improve the customer experience. Although, Narvar's services are great for smaller businesses based out of the US and Europe, Narvar competitors like ClickPost offer a better reach across the globe along with live tracking updates.
The GoPigeon platform will not only help you in delivery management but also help you in product development. The platform has an LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) feature. This feature will capture data from raw material procurement to production to delivery. The data will then be used to provide you with an in-depth analysis of inefficiencies in your workflow.
Additionally, the reporting feature allows you to collect comprehensive insights from the above-mentioned data as well as the delivery data. All these insights allow you to make changes at the root level of your ecommerce business to promote more profitable business processes.
GoPigeon also has an RTO management feature, which communicates and resolves the failed delivery causes before the second attempt of delivery. This allows you to ensure that your RTO instances are minimized. The preemptive tracking also contributes to this reduction, as well as contributes further to an enhanced customer experience. ClickPost has a carrier API integration with GoPiegon so that ecommerce businesses can have access to a more holistic shipping platform alongside other crucial features.
FAQs about Gopigeon
1) What is preemptive tracking by GoPigeon?
Preemptive tracking is a system that uses tracking updates to contact customers beforehand to reduce the possibility of an RTO. This is simply achieved by communicating and sharing information with the receiver beforehand to iron out discrepancies in the customer and delivery details.
2) Is GoPigeon still operational?
In August 2017, GoPigeon was acquired by Narvar, a post-purchase experience management platform, for an undisclosed amount. If you want to avail of the services by the TMS, you will have to go through Narvar support. This will allow you access to many additional features along with the core GoPigeon services.
