Jess Simons
Export Manager
I got started on eConsign in no time! It’s easy to use and has saved me a lot of faffing around with software not built for the job. I’d recommend it to anyone looking to save time and freight forwarder fees.
Terry McDonald
Despatch Manager
eConsign is perfect for my needs. I have been looking for a solution to complete Customs Declarations for some time. The HMRC portal is confusing and clunky. eConsign is just what shipping business needed.
Martin Damour
Export Co-ordinator
I use eConsign with eCert. I can easily pick up where I left off and I can send my Certificate of Origin data to eCert for submission to the Chamber of Commerce. I like having all my export documents in one place and I am now in a position to submit my Certificates of Origin documents to the Chamber straight from eConsign.
David Bennett
Exporter
We have found GTA to be a vital tool for creating our export documentation. We spend much less time completing documentation than did with our previous system. Sending data to eCert for certification by the Chamber of Commerce is very handy too.
Charles Davis
Export Co-ordinator
Managing our certified documents has never been so easy, we get our documents returned within hours saving our business time and money.
