CargoWatch Connector

Intro

CargoWatch is a telematics application that optimizes logistics management solutions for transportation service providers who use freight transportation assets. Use Domo's Cargowatch connector to get visibility into dry assets, maximize usage, reduce operational costs, and improve delivery predictability.
