Eagle View Yard Management System

Overview

Eagle View Yard Management System is cloud software for coordinating trailer activity across a shipping yard. It is aimed at supply-chain, logistics, distribution, transportation, and yard teams that need appointments, gate activity, and driver moves managed alongside a live yard view. Its broad workflow coverage is a strong fit for connected operations, but customer-specific configuration and possible customization charges make it less suited to buyers seeking a fixed, plug-in setup.

Key features

The graphical yard view brings trailer locations, dock loading status, and jockey moves into one real-time picture. That can help teams coordinate yard activity without treating inventory, dock status, and moves as separate tasks; its usefulness will depend on how closely the configured yard layout reflects the operation.

The Appointment Schedule handles inbound and outbound appointments, including adding, editing, searching, viewing, and rescheduling them. The Gate Module checks in and out trailers, tractors, and visitors, including vehicles without appointments. Driver tools let jockey and shuttle drivers accept, start, complete, edit, or decline move requests on tablet-mounted devices. Together, these functions span appointment, arrival, and yard-move workflows, which is a meaningful advantage for teams looking to coordinate those handoffs in one system.

Standard implementation reports cover current inventory, move requests, dock-door history, detention history, driver history, gate history, and inbound and outbound status. That range supports operational review across several stages of yard activity, though the reports named here are operational histories and status views rather than a broader analytics promise.

Pre-built integration categories include WMS, GPS technology, OCR cameras, license ID scanners, TMS, automatic gate hardware, temperature sensors, ERP, appointment scheduling tools, and truck scales. Integration methods include REST API, EDI webhook, CSV file transfer, and custom solutions. This breadth gives operations several routes to connect yard processes with surrounding systems, while custom work may add cost. The company says its support team provides regular software updates, including security patches, and lifetime 24/7 support to all customers.

Pricing

Eagle View is paid, with a stated starting price of $20/user/mo. The Yard Management Solutions plan has custom pricing and covers up to 60 active users; additional users are sold in blocks of 10 at $20 per user per month. The per-user starting figure should not be mistaken for the full plan price, since additional-user blocks and customer-specific customization can affect the total.

The system is configured around each customer’s workflows, business rules, and yard layout, with additional customizations available for additional charges. The Statement of Work says delivery is six weeks after setup information and payment are received, so buyers should account for that implementation lead time. A free plan or trial is not part of the stated offer.

Platforms

Eagle View supports Android, iOS, and web. Its driver workflow is designed for tablet-mounted devices, making the mobile support relevant to staff handling moves in the yard as well as office users coordinating them.

Who it's for

This is best suited to supply-chain, logistics, distribution, transportation, and shipping-yard operations that need a live view plus appointment, gate, and driver-move coordination. It is a less compelling fit for teams that only need a simple inventory tracker or cannot accommodate customer-specific configuration, paid customization, and a six-week delivery window.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Live visibility combines trailer locations, dock loading statuses, and jockey moves, helping teams work from a shared yard picture.
• Pros: Appointment, gate, and driver modules cover connected workflows, including vehicles without appointments and tablet-based move requests.
• Pros: Broad integration categories and multiple integration methods provide several ways to connect yard activity with other systems.
• Cons: The plan price is custom, and the stated starting rate does not establish the cost for the core plan; additional users and customization can add charges.
• Cons: Delivery is stated as six weeks after setup information and payment, which may not suit operations needing an immediate rollout.

Verdict

Choose Eagle View if your operation needs a configurable, real-time yard view tied to appointments, gate activity, and driver moves, with integration options for surrounding systems. Look elsewhere if you need a transparent fixed plan price or a faster, less customized deployment: the plan is custom-priced, additional configuration may cost extra, and delivery is stated at six weeks after setup information and payment.
