Performance of SAP Transportation Management (TM) Across Market Features
SAP Transportation Management (TM) Likes & Dislikes
It is efficient in managing multiple platforms and is applicable for Automotive, Consumer Goods and Manufacturing segments with complex Transportation network, also integration of SAP ERP, S/4HANA becomes seamless
Fundamentally, it does what it is supposed to help manage carrier shipments and billing processes. And coming from SAP as a more mature product, it is very stable and integrates fairly well with other solutions from SAP and SAP partners.
The best part is how detailed and configurable the system is, you can tailor it as per your requirements. The freight order management and carrier collaboration features are useful
Best Suited for Large Enterprises, not for MSMEs High Implementation Cost & Complexity, Steep Learning Curve
Not enough automation and/or AI (yet, though maybe coming) means it is still fairly labor intensive.
The setup and configuration can be overwhelming, it is not something you can just plug and play, you need experienced consultants and clear roadmap, report could be more intuitive too, sometimes it feels like you need a developer just to get basic insights.

Logistics Management Is Reliable But Processes Remain Labor Intensive And Complex
Overall, the product works well to manage our logistics. However, our users find that it often takes far more actions (clicks, data entry) to complete a process than is efficient. Also, you need to keep in mind that you will need more than just SAP TM for a complete solution. We have integrations to Project 44 (for carrier data), SAP LBN (for carrier invoicing), and a 3rd party procure-to-pay suite for links to POs and ASNs. - DATA AND ANALYTICS MANAGER50M-1B USDManufacturingReview Source

SAP TM has been a mixed review for us, mostly positive but with a few lags with that, it's good but no doubt, once it is properly set up, it can really streamline logistics and transportation planning. - MANAGER, SUPPLY CHAIN1B-10B USDConstructionReview Source

System Offers Centralized Data But Customization and Support Remain Challenging
It is a very robust system, but it is very difficult to customize to your own processes. Additionally the customer service is very slow to respond.
