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.”

Yatin K.

Fleet Manager

“It handles fleet management, tracking, dispatch, and daily operations quite smoothly, making it a useful tool for companies looking to streamline their workflow.”

Aman P.

Associate

“I particularly appreciate the tracking feature, as well as the simple and user-friendly navigation, which makes daily operations much easier.”

Aakash J.

Dispatch Associate

Pros

“Fuel Card Fee Quirks: While the automated fuel card integration is helpful for managing owner-operator settlements, it doesn’t always pass along or calculate fuel transaction fees smoothly, requiring us to double-check and manually adjust those deductions.”

Josh K.

Dispatcher

“Driver-Friendly Mobile Design: Drivers don't have to download a complex app; dispatchers can send load details via text link, and drivers can easily update statuses and upload clean document photos.”

Josh K.

Dispatcher

“Furthermore, the seamless integration with QuickBooks Online means that as soon as a driver scans a BOL upon delivery, we can push out an invoice almost instantly.”

Josh K.

Dispatcher

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.”

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.”

Abdul S.

Assistant Manager

Cons

“Duplication of New Customers since Dispatchers do not have access to QB”

Michelle A.

CFO

“I also don’t like how we don’t have the option to include or exclude information on settlements, customer load number doesn’t automatically generate on the invoice portion, the commodity portion doesn’t automatically generate on invoices and these are all things that I have to manually type in.”
