1. Technology overview
C3 Solutions is a logistics software company based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, operating since 2000. It targets yard and dock bottlenecks such as unscheduled arrivals, manual gate checks and poor visibility between carriers and facilities.
Its SaaS suite includes C3 Reservations for dock scheduling, driver pre check-in, automated gate, C3 Yard for yard management, and C3 Hive for supply chain collaboration. The platform connects with existing WMS and TMS systems and is aimed at shippers, distributors and 3PLs.

Single suite for dock appointments, gate and yard. ISO/IEC 27001 and GDPR badges shown on the site. Rated 4.7 on Capterra, G2 and GetApp according to the homepage. Works alongside existing enterprise systems rather than replacing them.
