Pros

“The system helps streamline transportation operations by bringing dispatching, load management, invoicing, and reporting into one platform. While there is a learning curve for some advanced features and the interface could be more modern, it has improved efficiency and made day-to-day workflows easier to manage.”

Cons

“One more thing, we can send invoices to customers but in the email that PCS sent, there's no receiver email address stated. When we forward the invoice email that we sent out from PCS to the customer to prove that we sent it out, they always say they didn't receive it, pointing out there's no receiver email address on it.”

Jack R.

Accounting Specialist

“The system performance is slow, lacks user-level customization options, and offers limited flexibility for third-party app or API integrations.”
AS

Abdul S.

Assistant Manager

“My overall experience with PCS TMS has been mixed. While the system offers useful features and supports various operational areas such as maintenance and fuel management, its performance can sometimes be slow.”

Cons

“With real-time tracking and data collection, I sometimes worry about privacy and the security of our data.”

Director of Digital solutions.

“The only Con from me for Motive was it is very hard to get ahold of a live customer service agent.”
