Prophesy Trucking Dispatch Software supports Fleet Management and is the central solution for managing every part of a growing trucking or truck brokerage operation. Users will never have to enter data twice, as all critical information flows in real time throughout every part of the user's business.
When our client wants to host email onsite, not in the cloud, our go-to is GFI Systems MailEssentials. You can set up allowed or blocked emails based on many parameters. The quarantine feature is easy to manage. Sometimes it "catches" too many emails. Easy to fix, though! GFI Systems LanGuard is so comprehensive that initial scans take forever to run! But it is so comprehensive that it catches *everything*! Not just viruses, and lack of updates--it catches things in the endpoint's registry. And provides the full information on the endpoint in order to identify and fix it. Thanks, guys for great products!
Although we are a small carrier (20 trucks with two people who dispatch during the same hours), Prophesy would be even more powerful with a slightly larger company that has multiple dispatchers that need to share information without being physically together. Multiple-office locations or companies that have employees working remotely would do well with Prophesy.
The Support zteam for GFI was with us all the way through, and I believe that they had the best support team of all the products that we use and/or tested.
The technical support individual we normally work with is professional, proficient, effective, responsive, and understandable which are all unusual traits with techincal support individuals.
The two most important features for us when deciding which provider to use were integration with third-party software and ease of scheduling drivers and matching with loads. Prophesy, for the money, excelled in both areas over the other systems we reviewed, some of which are not listed. The professionalism of the sales rep also set a tenor for the company he represents
GFI Systems does save us a lot of time and makes it very convenient to manage clients. Remote access usually works well.
For our business GFI Systems is a bit expensive. The total cost is like hiring a full time employee.
It would be nice if the backup function was more robust and better thought out. Until then, we are seeking another service for our client's backup needs.
