Veson IMOS vs SupaMaritime: An Honest Comparison
A chartering and voyage management platform compared with SupaMaritime's operational modules. They do different jobs.
Free 30-minute demo · No commitment
Veson IMOS, from Veson Nautical, is a commercial maritime platform for chartering and voyage management. It is widely used by tanker, dry bulk and gas operators, charterers and traders for voyage estimates, voyage P&L, charter parties, laytime and demurrage, and freight and hire.
SupaMaritime, built by SupaSailing S.L. in Palma de Mallorca, is a set of separate web apps for commercial operators. Ferry and Merchant cover planned maintenance and work orders by calendar or running hours, the equipment register and onboard inventory, defects, crew certificates with expiry alerts, hours of rest checked against MLC and STCW limits, and ISM, ISPS, SOLAS or MARPOL records. Agent covers the port-agency side: port calls, PDA/FDA disbursement accounts, crew changes and deliveries. Each module is its own app with its own database, hosted in the UK (London) with application servers in Paris, under a GDPR Data Processing Agreement. Ferry and Merchant have a free plan and a Pro plan at €199 per vessel per month plus VAT; Agent is quoted on request.
The two products barely overlap. SupaMaritime has no chartering, voyage estimation, voyage P&L, laytime and demurrage, charter party, bunker or emissions features, and it has no public API or integration with IMOS. What it covers is technical and crew operations for ferries and merchant ships, and port-agency work, which is not IMOS's focus.

When Veson IMOS is the better choice
Veson IMOS is the right choice for commercial chartering and voyage management: voyage estimates, fixtures, charter parties, laytime and demurrage, freight and hire invoicing, and voyage P&L. SupaMaritime does none of these. If that is the work you need software for, choose IMOS or another commercial platform.
When SupaMaritime is the better choice
SupaMaritime is relevant when the need is on the technical and crew side (planned maintenance, onboard inventory, defects, crew certificates, MLC/STCW hours of rest, ISM, ISPS, SOLAS or MARPOL records) or on the port-agency side (port calls, PDA/FDA disbursement accounts, crew changes). It would sit alongside a commercial system like IMOS, not replace it, and there is no integration between the two.
