What Awery Aviation Software does

Awery Aviation Software, founded in 2009 and incorporated as Awery Software FZ-LLC in Ras Al Khaimah, UAE, develops an integrated web-based ERP platform purpose-built for the aviation industry. The core product, Awery ERP, manages the full aviation business cycle — sales, flight operations, cargo management, crew management, ULD control, billing, finance, and HR — and is sold alongside add-ons such as Awery Documents Library, Awery Support (Jira-integrated), and a suite of iOS/Android mobile applications including four offered as white-label solutions. CargoBooking operates as a separate air cargo marketplace sub-brand connecting airlines and freight forwarders for instant rate distribution and booking, while Voyager provides real-time shipment monitoring via the IATA ONE Record API. The company is also the first to integrate IATA CO2 Connect for Cargo into an ERP, and has built strategic integrations with Cirium, Cargo iQ, and Nexmo.

Awery generates revenue through monthly and annual SaaS subscriptions (with annual plans carrying a meaningful discount), supplemented by professional services for implementation, customization, training, and project management. The platform is sold primarily via direct enterprise field sales targeting airlines, GSSAs, cargo carriers, and charter brokers, with a complementary channel-partner motion through GSSA networks such as Group Concorde (16 countries, 30+ offices) and Oriental Sky Aviation (China). Marketing is event-driven, anchored by IATA World Cargo Symposium, Air Cargo India, Air Cargo China, and IATA ONE Record Hackathon participation (five-time winner). The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 27001, ISO 22301, and SOC 2 Type II certifications, and reports 60+ airline and aviation customers across Asia, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the Americas. Awery remains privately held, founder-controlled (CEO Vitaly Smilianets), and self-funded with no disclosed external investment.

Direct peers

• IBS Software: IBS Software provides mission-critical aviation software for cargo, crew, flight operations, passenger management, and airline finance. It directly competes with Awery in cargo airline management, GSSA workflows, and airline operations software, serving similar enterprise customers with overlapping ERP-style platforms.
• CargoWise (WiseTech Global): CargoWise is a global logistics execution platform that handles freight forwarding, customs, warehousing, and increasingly air cargo workflows. It competes with Awery ERP and CargoBooking for airline, GSSA, and freight forwarder software spend, particularly in cargo booking and rate distribution.
• CHAMP Cargosystems: CHAMP Cargosystems provides air cargo messaging, community, and IT platforms used by airlines, GSSAs, and freight forwarders. CHAMP co-hosts the IATA ONE Record Hackathon with Awery as a partner and directly overlaps with Awery on cargo data exchange, airline back-office, and IATA standard-based services.
• Kale Logistics Solutions: Kale Logistics offers cargo management platforms for airlines, GSAs, GSSAs, and ground handlers, including rate distribution, AWB, and ULD management. It competes head-to-head with Awery ERP for GSA/GSSA and cargo airline customers, particularly across Asia, Middle East, and Africa.
• Accelya: Accelya provides financial, commercial, and operations software for the airline industry, including revenue accounting, cargo, and distribution solutions. It overlaps with Awery on airline finance, cargo revenue management, and ERP-adjacent workflows for commercial and cargo carriers.
• Descartes (CargoSphere): Descartes' CargoSphere provides air cargo rate distribution, contract management, and e-AWB services for airlines and freight forwarders. It directly competes with Awery's CargoBooking marketplace and ERP rate-sheet automation capabilities.

Broad incumbents

• Amadeus: Amadeus is a major global provider of airline IT, airport IT, and travel technology, with much broader scope than Awery. Its airline solutions overlap with Awery on passenger and cargo airline operations, but it serves as a broad incumbent rather than a niche aviation-cargo specialist.
• Sabre: Sabre provides airline operations, crew, and retailing software alongside its broader GDS business. Its airline IT portfolio overlaps with Awery on operations and crew management for commercial airlines, though Sabre addresses a much wider travel ecosystem.
• Unisys (Digital Workplace Solutions / Airline IT): Unisys provides aviation industry services and IT modernization for airlines and airports, including operations and passenger processing. It competes broadly for enterprise IT spend rather than specializing in cargo ERP.

Others

• SITA: SITA provides air transport industry IT and telecommunications infrastructure, including airport, airline, and border management solutions. It is adjacent to Awery's market — enabling air transport IT — rather than competing directly in aviation ERP, but its standards work shapes the ecosystem Awery builds on.
