Why did you choose OptimoRoute?
Dan W.: I've used other tools in the past and found that they were honestly just not as good, not as robust as OptimoRoute. It's very easy for us to import the daily routes for drivers. There are some of our customers that like to actually receive the, you know, sort of live tracking link and, estimates of delivery, which is obviously something super handy that OptimoRoute provides. The ability to, of course, customize a priority is huge for us. And then of course, from the end-user standpoint, our driver with the mobile app, it just makes it real easy knowing what's coming, being able to enter notes so that they are aware of anything special at the delivery or pickup - whatever it may be.
How easy is OptimoRoute to use?
Sean R.: Honestly, that was one of the first things I noticed about using OptimoRoute is the how easy it is to use, very user friendly. They have great instructions online, I was able to pick it up, you know, within a day or two.
How did you plan routes before?
Stephanie S.: Route planning was done via Google Maps before we got OptimoRoute. Since getting OptimoRoute, business and efficiency has increased well over 60% and we continue to add to that each and every year.
How has OptimoRoute helped your business?
Dario S.: I can say then with an average, we've been saving between 1 and 2 hours of time per day per driver. So like I said, a huge, huge impact.
Ethan S.: Here at Global Wines Iowa, we like to do things right the first time. So speed and accuracy is a very important factor for our company here. And OptimoRoute has helped increase the accuracy of our ordering, our stops, our routes and everything. It's just a very, very useful software to have.
