More Efficiently Manage Daily Routing Operations

Dispatch Module

With the Dispatch module, you can easily and efficiently manage the day-to-day challenges associated with running routes, including driver and vehicle substitutions, real-time visibility into the routes as they run, and communication with parents and drivers.

The Dispatch module consists of two components: Trip Preparation and Trip Operation. SafeDriver360 tablets are recommended so that real-time bus locations and student check-in/check-out of buses can be viewed.

Ensure drivers are well-informed by automatically sending route changes to the SafeDriver360 tablets and providing updated route sheets. Districts not using tablets can easily print revised route sheets, including routes with temporary changes, ensuring everyone has the latest route information.

Testimonials

From the time we started the onboarding process to the time we went live, the whole process just couldn’t have been better. If we ever had a question or a request, the [EZRouting] services team always got back to us within an hour or less. They even developed new features in the software to support our specific needs.

The customer support we receive from TransAct for our activity buses is a BIG 10 out of 10. Looking at other routing options for Caldwell County, it became clear that it was needed [and] that we wanted our needs met so TransAct had our needs. TransAct team has thus far been very compliant with the installation of the program.

We're able to send a quick message to a quick test text message to parents telling them to expect a delay on the bus, for instance, or what their child's bus information is, or the stop is moved. And as a return, we can see all the communication that we've had with the parents through our software.

[TransAct’s EZRouting] is by far the most powerful, easy-to-use web-based software I've ever seen in my life...the speed of it is incredible and especially compared to what we were used to. My anxiety level has dropped since switching to TransAct.

When we started looking at your program it was strictly for communication. We did everything by hand. In the summer, we would be at the office not knowing when we could go home because we had all these parents to call back. That's almost been eliminated because we can send them an email or text message with the information for their student.
