Both Extensiv and Trenvar serve 3PL operators. The difference is how the platform is shaped.
Extensiv assembled its suite through multiple acquisitions — strong individually, but federated across products. Trenvar was built as a single platform across WMS, billing, transport, and commerce from day one.

Migration
What an Extensiv → Trenvar migration looks like
Phased migration paths designed to keep client operations running while you transition the data and workflows.
1
Discovery + mapping
Audit your current Extensiv modules (3PL Warehouse Manager, Order Manager, freight reconciliation), client list, rate cards, and channel integrations. Map each to a Trenvar OS package.
2
Pilot client cohort
Stand up one or two client workspaces in Trenvar. Validate inbound, fulfillment, and billing workflows against historical Extensiv outputs to confirm parity.
3
Cohort cutover
Migrate clients in controlled cohorts — usually 2-4 weeks per cohort depending on integration count. Run both systems in parallel for the first cohort, then cut over.
FAQ
Common comparison questions
Answers to the questions buyers ask most when evaluating Extensiv against Trenvar.
Yes. Trenvar supports phased migration from existing 3PL systems including Extensiv. Common pattern: stand up one client workspace, validate inbound and billing workflows, then migrate additional clients in controlled cohorts. We can review your current Extensiv configuration and recommend a sequencing plan in the discovery call.
No. Trenvar pricing is based on the OS packages you enable (Warehouse OS, 3PL OS, Transport OS, Air Cargo OS, Commerce OS, Collaboration OS) — not on how many client workspaces, brands, or buyers you serve. Add clients without renegotiating commercial terms.
Standard onboarding for a single facility with WMS and 3PL OS is under 48 hours of platform setup. Migration of historical inventory, client rate cards, and integrations adds calendar time depending on data volume — but the platform itself goes live the same week as your first import.
Yes. 3PL Warehouse Manager is the WMS + 3PL billing core of the Extensiv suite. Trenvar's Warehouse OS plus 3PL OS covers the same operational ground: receiving, putaway, fulfillment, customer-level inventory separation, storage accrual, and invoice-ready billing.
Air cargo and AWB tracking (Air Cargo OS), built-in team and customer messaging (Collaboration OS), B2B buyer ordering portal (Commerce OS), and a logistics-specific sales CRM extension are all on Trenvar's platform. Extensiv covers WMS, 3PL billing, omnichannel order management, and freight reconciliation through separate product lines.
If your operation is built around Extensiv's CartRover ecommerce marketplace integrations (the broadest in the 3PL industry, with 300+ connections), Trenvar's 23-integration catalog covers the most common stores and finance tools but not the long tail. Buyers with deep marketplace integration requirements should map their channel list to both directories before deciding.
