project44: If your requirement is multimodal visibility rather than European road capacity sourcing
Alpega
European TMS and freight exchange group behind Teleroute and Wtransnet
As of 31 August 2026, Alpega's pricing is not published; the vendor quotes on request. A European transport management group combining a modular TMS with the freight exchanges Teleroute, Wtransnet and 123cargo. Softwr lists it under Logistics. Alpega is made by Alpega Group, available on Web, iOS, Android.
Overview
What Alpega does
Alpega sells transport management software covering planning, transport execution, freight tendering through TenderEasy, real-time visibility, reusable packaging management and analytics, alongside freight exchanges where shippers and carriers post and take loads. The group states it operates in around 80 countries with more than 80,000 verified carriers and over 350,000 daily freight transactions on its exchanges.\n\nThe combination is the point. Most TMS vendors optimise and tender the freight you have and leave you to find capacity elsewhere. Alpega owns both the planning system and the marketplaces where European road capacity is actually traded, so spot capacity sourcing happens inside the same group rather than through a separate subscription to a third-party exchange. In European road freight, where carriers are fragmented and small hauliers dominate, access to that carrier base is worth more than most planning algorithms.\n\nBuyers are European shippers, manufacturers and logistics providers whose freight is predominantly intra-European road. The trade-off is geography and consolidation history. Alpega is the product of merged acquisitions including Teleroute, Wtransnet, TenderEasy and inet, so the modules do not all share one lineage or one interface, and coverage outside Europe is thin compared with global TMS vendors. A business with significant North American or Asian volume will be running Alpega alongside something else rather than instead of it.
What people use it for
- A European manufacturer that needs both contracted transport planning and spot capacity from the same supplier
- A shipper running periodic freight tenders across dozens of road hauliers and comparing rates on a common basis
- A logistics provider needing verified carrier credentials and credit checks before handing over a load
- An operation tracking reusable pallets and crates through a European distribution network

The honest half
Where it falls short
Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about 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.

Questions people ask
Each answer names the page it came from, so you can check it rather than take our word for it.
Are the freight exchanges included with the TMS?
No. Teleroute, Wtransnet and 123cargo are separately subscribed products, even though they belong to the same group.
Does Alpega work outside Europe?
Its carrier network and regulatory coverage are built around European road freight. It operates in around 80 countries but the density that makes it useful is intra-European.
Is pricing published?
No. TMS pricing is quoted by module and usually by shipment or transport order volume. Exchange subscriptions are quoted by user and country scope.
What happened to Teleroute and Wtransnet as brands?
Both continue to trade under their own names as Alpega freight exchanges, alongside 123cargo.
