Modern Shipping Line & Agency Software Built for Ocean Carriers

VGLS (Vilden Global Liner System) is a cloud-based shipping line software platform designed to help ocean carriers and liner agents manage commercial and operational workflows in one centralized system.

​

From rate quotations through voyage execution and final accounting, VGLS connects every part of your business—reducing manual processes, improving visibility, and enabling better control across global shipping operations.

 

What Is Shipping Line Carrier Software?

Shipping line software is a centralized system used by ocean carriers to manage vessel schedules, cargo bookings, container operations, documentation, and financial processes.

​

Common Challenges Facing Shipping Lines

Ocean carriers and agents often struggle with:

• Disconnected operational and financial systems

• Limited visibility into container and cargo movement

• Manual documentation and data entry

• Inefficient booking and allocation processes

• Difficulty coordinating across global offices

• Delays caused by poor communication

• Lack of EDI, direct connection to Customs, ports and intermodal carriers

 

VGLS replaces these inefficiencies and the need for manual workflows and disconnected tools with a unified operational system—improving efficiency, visibility, and accuracy across the organization.

 

Replace Disconnected Shipping Systems with One Platform

Many shipping lines operate across multiple systems:

• Booking systems

• Equipment tracking tools

• Documentation creation

• Billing platforms

• Spreadsheets

This creates inefficiencies, delays, and limited visibility.

​

VGLS eliminates this complexity by providing:

✅ One system for operations, documentation, and accounting
✅ Real-time shipment and equipment visibility
✅ Automated workflows across departments
✅ Integrated communication with partners and agencies

 

The result: more control, fewer errors, and faster operations.
