What do you like best about Descartes Datamyne?

It provides granular insight into specific company shipment trends, which is hugely valuable for our company's ability to make informed business decisions. Our company uses Datamyne on a monthly basis to track key industry players, and extract insights about product, price, and track record. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Descartes Datamyne?

Shipment data requires a significant amount of cleaning to be useful and comparable when trying to actually determine the companies sending and receiving products. The product is more expensive than peer products on the market, and countries are gated behind additional payment tiers. Several key interest countries are missing.

What problems is Descartes Datamyne solving and how is that benefiting you?

Problem: Who is the largest supplier to the U.S.?

Problem: What is the leading product type in the U.S.?
