5 Benefits of Dispatch Software for Trucking Business Owners

Let’s face it – it’s not fun being the pencil-pushing, jacket-and-tie type. Being that kind of businessperson is rarely interesting. That’s probably one reason why you got into trucking in the first place. You love the adventure and excitement of being on the road and don’t necessarily care about big, shiny offices or fancy suits. Maybe now that you’re running your own transportation company, though, you might wish you could make some of the administrative hassles easier so you can get back to doing the things you enjoy about your job. If this sounds like you, then you’re the kind of person who will love our dispatch software for trucking. Here are five benefits it offers:

1. A cost-effective and time-efficient replacement for old-fashioned paper forms and the time-consuming hassles they cause. Nothing will drive you crazy quicker than trying to track down a missing form, file, or note that was hastily written down and then set aside. Our software puts all those problems in the past by replacing paper forms with simple, easy-to-use online forms that can never be accidentally thrown away or lost in a pile of papers. Think of how much time, effort, and worry this feature alone will save you.
2. The data you need to know where you stand and how to prepare for the future. There’s an old saying: “if you fail to plan, then you plan to fail.” It’s true, but to make the right plans, you first need timely, accurate information about dispatches, deliveries, expenses, etc. Our software will provide you with all of that. And with all the handy at-a-glance features, you’ll wonder how you ever got along without it.
3. To-the-penny mileage and rate estimators that allow you to pay your drivers exactly what they have coming – no more, no less. Nothing will hurt driver morale or productivity more than squabbles over money. With our dispatch software for trucking, you’ll always know who delivered what load, how far they traveled, and how much they earned for the job. Your employees will appreciate this feature and so will you.
4. The ability to create accurate, on-time invoices for your clients. With our software, there’s no need to fill piles of paper with endless calculations, no need to huddle over a desk with a calculator, and no need to worry about whether your figures are accurate or not. The math will come out right every time. And, even better, you’ll save time by never having to add, subtract, or divide a single number; the computer will do all the figuring for you. Plus, in the event that there is a question or dispute over your billing, you’ll have the information at your fingertips to back you up. Nothing creates ill will like misunderstandings over invoices. Now, with our dispatch software for trucking, you can leave all that in the past.
5. The peace of mind that comes with knowing your company information is safe from hackers and other snoops. This is one of the major benefits of TruckingOffice versus other software packages out there. All your data is stored on ultra-secure supercomputers with the very best security safeguards on earth. No one will be able to pry into your affairs by copying your hard drive or stealing your disks. And because TruckingOffice was created by truckers for truckers, each of its features is custom-designed to meet the needs of transportation professionals like yourself. Plus, we’re constantly working to keep it up to date and to ensure that it remains powerful yet easy to use. Should you ever have a problem, our friendly, expert staff is just a phone call away.
