Switching guide
If you're comparing Extensiv alternatives, this page is the honest version of our pitch: what actually changes when a 3PL moves to Teamship, what to verify before you switch, and how migration really works.
Nobody researches an Extensiv alternative because everything is fine. When 3PL operators reach us, they describe the same pattern: pricing that's hard to predict, screens cluttered with features they never use, support that hands them off instead of helping, and the feeling that getting a small change made requires a project, a survey, a quote, or a queue. If that sounds familiar, here's what changes.
Teamship's pricing is published on our website, flat, and monthly, starting at $400 per month. No per-user fees, no surprise line items at renewal, and no proprietary scan guns: your team scans on any phone or tablet they already own, so adding seasonal staff doesn't mean buying hardware. You can calculate your year-one cost right now, before ever talking to us. Try that with most WMS vendors.
Teamship covers the 3PL core: client portals, receiving, putaway, barcode-verified picking, packing, shipping, lot and expiry tracking, automated billing, inventory counts, and 300+ integrations. And it adds things most platforms don't have:
The difference operators comment on most is that Teamship feels like it was made for their operation, while keeping the interface simpler. It's built for the people on the floor, so new staff learn it in hours. Fewer modules you don't use, fewer screens between your team and the work.
This is the part that keeps 3PLs with us, and it's the hardest part for any large platform to copy:
When something's wrong at 9am, you talk to someone who knows your operation and cares whether you hit your shipping cutoff. 3PLs live and die on fast action; so does our support.
Need a report customized or a workflow tweaked to match a client contract? We build it. If the change makes Teamship better for the whole community, there's often no charge at all. Otherwise it's a transparent hourly rate, quoted up front, not a professional-services project.
We aim to build every feature correctly the first time, so most operations run on Teamship as it ships. And when a genuine operational need comes up, the platform is designed so enhancements can be added cleanly, not bolted on.
Issues get worked quickly, fixes ship fast, and you're never left explaining to a client why your software vendor hasn't gotten back to you.
You already know what running your current system costs and feels like. The fastest way to evaluate a switch is to pull your real numbers and set them beside our answers:
| What to compare | Teamship's answer | Check it against what you have today |
|---|---|---|
| Annual cost | Published flat pricing starting at $400/mo. No per-user fees, no implementation surprise. | Pull your last renewal invoice and add every line: subscription, users, modules, support tier. |
| WMS mobility | Any phone or tablet, in a browser. $0 in scan guns. | Today you're downloading apps that behave inconsistently depending on device and operating system. |
| Small customizations | Honest and transparent. Changes that benefit the whole community are often free; anything else is a straightforward hourly rate, quoted up front. | Dig out your last quote for a report tweak, and how long the queue was. |
| Support | A real person who knows your operation, with fast action on problems. | Think about your last urgent ticket: how many hand-offs before someone owned it? |
| Contract flexibility | Monthly. We keep your business by being good, not by locking you in. | Very commonly a year. Whatever you sign, you're locked in, whether your business changes or not. |
Every Teamship customer inherits us as a pro-bono IT WMS consultant. When you're bidding on a new client's RFP, we help you answer the technical sections. When a prospect demands an integration you don't have, we build it. When you need documentation completed or a solution designed, we're in the meeting with you, at no cost.
Your WMS vendor should help you win business, not just process it. More about how we work.
The switch is the scary part, so here's the whole process. Our team does the heavy lifting, and most 3PLs are live in weeks:
If you're surveying every Extensiv competitor before deciding, our buyer's guide to 3PL software compares eleven systems across tier, total cost and fit. It will give you the questions to put to every vendor on your shortlist, including us.
But if what you want is enterprise-grade capability with published pricing, software your floor staff learn in hours, and a vendor that treats your problems as urgent, that's the exact bracket Teamship was built for, and the demo will show it faster than any comparison page.
A 20-minute demo built around your clients, your billing rules and your order profile. Bring your current pain points; we'll show you exactly how each one is handled, and tell you honestly if something isn't.
Request a DemoFor growing 3PLs, usually yes. Teamship covers the same core 3PL work: multi-client inventory, receiving, picking, packing, shipping, client portals and automated billing, with flat published pricing starting at $400 per month, a simpler interface, and support from real people who tailor the system to your operation with honest, transparent pricing for custom work. Very large automated networks are better served by enterprise systems, and we'll say so if that's you.
Teamship covers the 3PL feature set operators actually use daily, and adds capabilities most platforms don't have: TeamMate AI agents, automated charge capture, pallet photos, a custom workflow sequence builder, a label designer and in-app inventory counts. The fastest way to verify fit is to bring your requirements list to a demo and make us show each one live.
Easier than most operators expect. Clients, SKUs, locations and inventory balances are imported from standard exports, integrations are reconnected, and most 3PLs run a short parallel period on one client before cutting over. Our team does the heavy lifting, and most operations go live in weeks.
Teamship publishes flat monthly pricing starting at $400 per month, with no per-user fees and no proprietary hardware, so you can calculate year-one cost before talking to anyone. Most WMS vendors quote privately, so whatever you compare us against, insist on an all-in year-one number including implementation, per-user charges and scanners.
Yes, and we recommend it. A short parallel run on one client or workflow is the lowest-risk way to switch: you keep shipping from your current system while your team validates the same work in Teamship, then cut over client by client.
