Great for tracking hours and break times

I love that it allows me to keep track of my truck's hours. It also helps me to know when i'm due for a break/lunch. I dislike that everything must be done on the computer. Sometimes it takes a long time to load up. Also sometimes, if you're trying to do work in another window there is no way to close out of that tab unless you click back on your browser. Make sure you get the most updated version so that it will help you with all aspects of your business. Tracking hours and breaks. The ability

Pros
  • How intuitive this software was made by our management team! Everything works very well once we were able figure some things out like how many days are available per week instead just using one day at a certain amount because its not always consistent throughout every store or location (we have 7 stores)
Cons
  • This program does take quite awhile but

It has helped me keep inventory of my trailers to make sure I am not missing any items in them that need repainting etc! We have been able use it during storms when there are power outages so we could track our vehicles without having constant access via cellular service because if you run into bad weather your phone can be ruined too :) sometimes takes awhile at first but once its set up all will work well with no problems. Tracking vehicle mileage ect would help get better prices from…

Pros
  • The ability for keeping accurate records, tracking locations while working or away
Cons
  • Empty

Great software for managing vehicles and employees

I love that it has multiple features so you could customize your own rules! It can be confusing at first because there are many different tabs to go through while figuring out all of its capabilities but once everything works well with this program then they will never switch back again!! Definitely check them both (the free version vs paid) before making any final decisions either way. We use their yard management service in our trucking business now since we started using GPS technology…

Pros
  • Multiple tools for managing yards as an owner, employee or driver.
  • This also includes employees too not only owners / managers etc..
Cons
  • None
