JumpTrack® Proof-of-Delivery (POD) system speeds up the delivery process by helping dealers plan, capture, and track deliveries. The mobile friendly solution is used to reduce fuel costs, minimize driver errors, and save time with route optimization.
CartoDB is great for generating geographic visualizations of data where the geographies are well-defined. It would be great for analysts to develop visualizations of data with spatial elements. That being said, the software is limited if you want to do any real data munging or analysis, as it can be cumbersome to use and there isn't a great interface for actually saving the results of different manipulations (you can save it as a new file, but it's hard to do version control, etc.). I would recommend preparing the data outside of CartoDB and only using the tool for visualization once the data is well prepared.

It is appropriate when you have high value items that you are delivering like computers and printers to offices. You need proof of delivery many times and this provides that with pictures that can easily be stored in our database. It is not appropriate for businesses that are just delivering goods where proof of delivery is not needed or you are working with low value items.

It is amazing at allowing control of the visualizations. It takes a little bit to get used to but the combination of full SQL queries and CSS-like styling is very powerful.
The services are built on a robust stack of open source software. I was able to build a standalone instance of CartoDB relatively easily (after some research and trial and error).
Server side map rendering is key for handling large data sets. The way the images are returned makes them very easy to catch in an HTTP cache to minimize the hits to the server. The interactivity that CartoDB has built in makes this completely transparent to the end user, they can click on parts of the static images and be presented with popups or change map styles. It's a very clever implementation.

Support is lacking and finding information is very difficult. Actual issues are rarely resolved or followed up on.
If a delivery does not sync properly the data is permanently stuck and all further delivery information is lost. The app then needs to have it's data and cache erased to restore functionality. This is a major bug that needs to be fixed.
Automated POD email function is too time consuming to setup. When an email is added to one master account number there needs to be an option to populate that information to all sub accounts.
Report function needs improvement. The 'Planned vs Actual' and 'Delivery Efficiency' reports each do things that overlap, but a single report with selectable options for needed data would be much more user friendly. Currently to get the data needed I have to run both reports then copy/paste the data I want into a third spreadsheet.
Map feature on the app sometimes works well - IF the accounts are all formatted the same. If there is a suite number in the address it does not.
When changes are made to the delivery manifest through DDMS those changes do not automatically update Jumptrack, it has to be done manually.

Overall it's pretty simple but there are bugs, and they are glaring. losing data and functionality midway through the day is a major detriment. The map/navigation function is effectively useless. Piece counts should be shown on the 'in transit' list instead of having to click all the way through to the individual invoices to see how many pieces you have

I have never contacted customer support. Your question clearly states " If you have never contacted support for this product, please skip this question. "When attempting to skip, I get an error "Explanation required Please provide a response." For this reason alone, I have given a rating of 1.

We use JumpTrack over other programs out there because of how well it integrates with DDMS, our ERP software. We also like that nothing has to be installed on any computers. It's fully web-based/cloud based product. We like it's developed by Eci who made our ERP software so we already have a working relationship with it's creator

CartoDB definitely saves a lot of time when creating visualizations. Previously, I would use different software and have to make edits manually (or just create the visualizations manually to start with). I would say that the software definitely cuts the time required to create certain visualizations by a half or two-thirds.
