Performance of DHL Supply Chain Transportation-Related Services Across Market Features

DHL Supply Chain Transportation-Related Services Likes & Dislikes

Like

What I appreciate is the scale and flexibilit. DHL's commitment to technology, with near real time tracking (dashboards) and data analytics is a really significant advantage in our daily operations.

Like

While the system itself works as expected, it is truly the reliable and responsive services that sets DHL transportation apart. Any time we have had issues or questions, they have been with us as a partner throughout the process.

Like

I like the fact that I can organize a parcel from a supplier in Taiwan and it will reach the USA within a couple of days. Because DHL has it's own airline, it makes transport very quick and efficient. The pricing is not bad either.

Dislike

Service consistency. While we have a strong partnership, sometimes execution is not as seamless as we'd like. Also the user interface can sometimes be complex and less intuitive than some other solutions.

Dislike

The main downside with DHL is the lack of service area. It doesn't compare to the competitors, which is unfortunate.

Dislike

Nothing at the moment

    DHL has been a pleasure to work with, to the degree that we often have customers that don't qualify for DHL shipping services (due to location and transit time requirements) request that we use them.

    We have been using DHL for transportation for recently and have been very happy so far with the service that has been offered and that has been given. The support is helpful and the agents are quick to respond with any query. They are also quick to get a quote through and shipping details. Overall it has been a pleasant experience.
