Item 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER
This statement on Schedule 13D (the “Schedule 13D”) relates to the common shares, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of Amber Road, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”).  The Issuer’s principal executive offices are located at One Meadowlands Plaza, East Rutherford, New Jersey 07073.
Item 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND

(a) This Schedule 13D is filed by: (i) Altai
Capital Management, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership registered as an investment adviser with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (“Investment Manager”); (ii) Altai Capital Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(“IMGP”); and (iii) Mr. Rishi Bajaj.

Each of the foregoing is referred to as a “Reporting
Person
” and collectively as, the “Reporting Persons.” Accordingly, the Reporting Persons are hereby
filing this joint Schedule 13D.

This Schedule 13D relates to the
Common Stock held for the account of Altai Capital Osprey, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(“Osprey”). Investment Manager serves as investment manager to Osprey. Each of Investment Manager, IMGP and Mr. Bajaj may be deemed to have voting and dispositive power over the
Common Stock held for the account of Osprey. The filing of this statement
shall not be deemed an admission that any Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of the securities reported herein for
purposes of Section 13 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise.

(b) The address of the business office of each of the Reporting Persons is 520 Newport Center Drive – 12th Floor, Newport Beach, California 92660.

(d) – (e) During the last five years, no Reporting Person has been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining further violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
(f) Investment Manager is a Delaware limited partnership. IMGP is a Delaware limited liability company. Mr. Bajaj is a citizen of the United States of America.
Item 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

The Reporting Persons used approximately $15,280,319
(including brokerage commissions) in the aggregate to purchase the Common Stock for the account of Osprey.

The source of the funds used by Osprey to acquire
the Common Stock reported herein is the working capital available to Osprey and margin borrowings described in the following sentence.
Such shares of Common Stock are held by Osprey in margin accounts, which may extend margin credit to Osprey from time to time,
subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and credit policies. In such instances, the positions held
in the margin account are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the account. The margin accounts
bear interest at a rate based upon the broker’s call rate from time to time in effect. Because other securities are held
in the margin accounts, it is not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase the Common Stock reported
herein.

Item 4.  PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION
The Reporting Persons acquired the Common Stock
to which this Schedule 13D relates for investment purposes in the ordinary course of business. The Reporting Persons acquired the
Common Stock because they believed that the Common Stock reported herein, when purchased, represented an attractive investment
opportunity.

Page 7 of 11 – SEC Filing

The Reporting Persons and their
representatives have, from time to time, engaged in, and expect to continue to engage in, discussions with members of management
and the board of directors of the Issuer (the “Board”), other current or prospective shareholders, industry
analysts, existing or potential strategic partners or competitors, investment and financing professionals, sources of credit and
other third parties regarding a variety of matters relating to the Issuer, which may include, among other things, the Issuer’s
business, management, capital structure and allocation, corporate governance, Board composition and strategic alternatives and
direction, and may take other steps seeking to bring about changes to increase shareholder value as well as pursue other plans
or proposals that relate to or could result in any of the matters set forth in clauses (a)-(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The
Reporting Persons intend to engage in discussions related to the unsolicited offer by E2open, LLC and Insight Venture Partners
(the “Offerors”) to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock that the Offerors do not already
own for $10.50 per share in cash.

The Reporting Persons intend to review their
investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors, including, without limitation, the outcome of any
discussions referenced above, the Issuer’s financial position, results and strategic direction, actions taken by the Issuer’s
management and the Board, price levels of the Common Stock, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons,
conditions in the securities market and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take
such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate, including, without limitation, exchanging
information with the Issuer pursuant to appropriate confidentiality or similar agreements; proposing changes in the Issuer’s
operations, governance or capitalization; acquiring additional Common Stock and/or other equity, debt, notes, instruments or other
securities of the Issuer (collectively, “Securities”) or disposing of some or all of the Securities beneficially
owned by them, in public market or privately negotiated transactions; entering into financial instruments or other agreements that
increase or decrease the Reporting Persons’ economic exposure with respect to their investment in the Issuer and/or otherwise
changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
(a) – (b) The responses of the Reporting Persons to Rows (7)
through (13) of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference. As of the date hereof, the
Reporting Persons beneficially own an aggregate 1,592,547 shares of Common Stock, which Common Stock may be deemed to be
beneficially owned by each of the Investment Manager, IMGP and Mr. Bajaj, and which represent approximately 5.83% of the
Issuer’s currently outstanding Common Stock. All percentages set forth herein are based upon a total of 27,320,956
shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 28, 2018, as reported in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K,
for the year ended December 31, 2017,  filed with the Securities and Exchange
