The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Alpega coverage is strongly European, so a shipper with significant North American or Asian volume will need a second TMS and will lose the single-system benefit that justified the purchase.; Ordoro the product is split into three separately priced apps for shipping, inventory and dropshipping rather than one plan
  • They diverge on capability: Alpega covers Modular TMS, Ordoro covers Order management.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Alpega

  • Coverage is strongly European, so a shipper with significant North American or Asian volume will need a second TMS and will lose the single-system benefit that justified the purchase.
  • The group was assembled from acquisitions including Teleroute, Wtransnet, TenderEasy and inet, so modules differ in interface and data model and cross-module workflows are less joined up than the group branding implies.
  • The TMS and the freight exchanges are separately subscribed, so the combination that is the reason to choose Alpega costs two contracts rather than one.
  • Pricing is unpublished and typically volume based on shipments or transport orders, so a business whose freight volume grows faces a cost curve it cannot model in advance.
  • Freight exchange value depends entirely on carrier density on your specific lanes, and a shipper on thin or peripheral routes will find far less capacity than the headline carrier count suggests.

Ordoro

  • The product is split into three separately priced apps for shipping, inventory and dropshipping rather than one plan
  • Inventory starts at $349 a month and dropshipping at $299, so a retailer needing both pays for both
  • Only the shipping app is free
  • Order limits and feature gates are not stated on the main pricing page and require opening a separate page per app
