The major challenges facing the shippers but bitnautic will have a better solutions to them all includes the following:

Finding the best options: Cargo can be moved from point to point in a number of different ways. While it’s convenient to have options, many shippers are overwhelmed or simply unaware of the many different choices they have. Understanding the shipping landscape could save time and money at the end of the day.
Finding the best rates: looking for the best freight shipping rates can be time consuming when not equipped with the right tools or processes. Most of the times shippers have contracts in place or have to make multiple phone calls just to find the best rate for one shipment. Having a transportation management system in place could provide a solution to this problem.
Preparation and documentation: shippers sometimes are not prepared to take on the process. From filling out the bill of lading to identifying freight classes one misstep can result in surcharges delays or customs holds when shipping internationally. Shippers must be sure to preparing ahead of time with the necessary knowledge to getting the job done.
Shipping demand exceeds forecast: exporters and importers often find themselves short on containers or bulk shipping capacity when they need them most. This leads to delays additional costs, potential penalties and strained relations with clients as well as partners
