Pros
They are a fantastic company to work with. Not only do they have wonderful customer service, but they are always on top of new technology changes to ensure their application is one of the best.
I have had great technical support every time I have reached out for help. Now, with their question analyst it is easy to get an answer even faster.
Pros for workwave,is that it's very user friendly and it helps me put mu drivers in a successful position routing wise.
Cons
I don't like that the GPS takes you to coordinates instead of the address. Has not been a big problem, just more of an annoyance.
Usually leave a message if there is a problem don't expect an immediate response.
I have a 3 screen display and making one exclusively for work wave is problematic. When i asked the tech support agent about this and will this issue be corrected in the future , his reply was no.

Great routing tool

Reviewed 5 years ago

Overall, very pleased with WorkWave

Pros

GPS tracking and the ability for our customers to acknowledge delivery using the app.

Cons

We had to play around with the features to find out what works best for us. Also, we have to input a lot of information but that is to be expected I suppose

Love routing with Workwave!

Reviewed 3 years ago

Ever since utilizing WorkWave route manager as our routing software it has increased our efficiency dramatically. We were able to densify our routes with the comfort of knowing we will meet customer needs as well as stay compliant with shift duration restrictions we put on each vehicle. We were able to successfully launch up to 100+ new stores with minor complications logistically.

Pros

- Being able to put in customer receiving windows is absolutely stunning. This helps us ensure we meet every customer before they close and can provide accurate ETA's when running behind since the software calculates ETA's based on real time location via the GPS. - Building simulations- this is where I work out routing logistics to figure out what days can accommodate new customer launches to the sales...

Cons

- The reports are tricky to get the hang of and look bleak. We end up having to do a bit of extra work on our side to ensure the report data is correct and that we're retrieving what we need correctly. - We don't have the ability to track temperature from the dashboard. WorkWave offers a 3rd party service for temperature tracking but it wasn't a fit for us - That the breadcrumb limit is 3 hours. Extending this to upwards of 12 hours can be extremely useful to have full insight into the duration of a route.

Vendor response

Hi William, Thank you for your great review! We are so happy that Route Manager has been able to elevate your customers' and employees' experience. It is amazing that you were able to successfully launch up to 100+ new stores with minor complications logistically. We look forward to continuing our relationship with Bowery Farming!

Disappointing software

Reviewed 2 years ago

Frustrating and disappointing with no improvements in sight.

Pros

The only thing I think works well is the notification. It will send a notification whenever a setting is violated.

Cons

Everything. There is no dashboard so there's no way to get an overall view of the driving behavior. The vehicle trackers don't let you save identification information like vehicle VIN number, license plate, drivers name. There is only one description field so if a driver switches vehicles and someone forgets to update the name on it it's nearly impossible to tie the device back to the vehicle. The...

This product is best in class!

Reviewed 2 years ago
Pros

Workwave is a very flexible product and easy to use. The integration with our work order management system was very easy and we were able to improve our field technician productivity by 25%.

Cons

The inability to color code the order pins that are displayed on the map has been brought up by several different internal user groups.

Vendor response

Thank you for the 5 star review! We are so glad you are finding success with our solutions.
