Mantis

Mantis, established in 1996, is a leading international WMS/logistics software and solutions vendor with European origins. With 10 offices and many qualified partners, Mantis is present in 30+ countries in North & Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia-Pacific.

Mantis’ flagship Logistics Vision Suite (LVS) is probably the only WMS/logistics software suite in the world that can be easily adapted for companies with sophisticated warehousing and distribution operations and automation. Its design represents a great leap in WMS/logistics technology, offering unique adaptability and outstanding upgradeability. It enables professionals of Mantis and its partner network to easily configure and roll it out to multi-site operations (and multiclient in case of 3PLs), sharply decreasing the initial project time and costs.

Its state-of-the-art architecture and upgradeability allow painless upgrades and cost-effective ongoing support. It allows 3PLs and other customers with internal IT resources to “self-serve,” enabling them to respond fast to their continuously evolving needs while enjoying an unbeatable low multi-year TCO.

More than 900 enterprises, many of them leading multinationals, representing all major industries (3PL, Retail, Wholesale/ Distribution & Manufacturing), selling channels (traditional, multichannel, e-commerce) and many vertical markets, rely on LVS to run and optimize their logistics operations, enabled by a series of valuable, extended capabilities that Mantis WMS offers.

Mantis LVS natively integrates and orchestrates flexible and affordable automation systems (Voice Picking, Pick-to-Light, Put-Walls/Sort-to-Light, Smart Pick Carts, Smart Glasses, RFID, etc.) as well as Automated Materials Handling Systems/AMHS due to its WCS proprietary technology (Warehouse Control System) that significantly enhances the automation’s overall performance, while at the same time minimizes costs due to the elimination of any relevant 3rd party control software.

In 2022, Mantis merged with logistics IT specialist ecovium, a leading provider of SCE software and hardware solutions for supply chain processes. German-headquartered ecovium and Mantis join forces to offer integrated, state-of-the-art supply chain execution (SCE) solutions on an international level by combining platforms for TMS, shipping, customs, and WMS. The transaction was supported by FSN Capital Partners, a leading Northern European private equity firm and advisor to the FSN Capital Funds. In 2018, Mantis acquired Insight GT, Inc., a leading slotting and warehouse optimization software solutions vendor headquartered in Toronto, Canada.
