Roadnet Technologies, the Omnitracs company specializing in transportation logistics software, launched Roadnet Transportation Suite 3.7.1, the new version of its vehicle routing, scheduling, tracking, mobile workforce and fleet management software. The updated solution aims to deliver improved visibility to daily driving activities to help fleets route and dispatch trucks more efficiently.
The second update of this year, Roadnet Transportation Suite 3.7.1 features new functionality that enables fleets to see which drivers and vehicles are available for route assignments, and which regions are in danger of exceeding the number of assigned routes for Roadnet and Territory Planner. It also allows standard and preferred routes to begin the day before the assigned delivery date, which is ideal for longer trips.
Additional new features included in this release allow fleets to:
- Include goal distance when exporting routes
- Have routes automatically completed when using the Roadnet Telematics Adapter;
- View a description for the original and new location substitutions;
- Manage the assignment of employees from the locations notebook;
- Assign resources to multiple depots at the same time;
- Prevent system lockouts in multiple-user scenarios; and
- View license information about purchased product in the Administration module.
“We’ve listened to user feedback and made significant and subtle platform enhancements—from customizable layouts to integration with Roadnet Anywhere, our SaaS platform—for an intuitive tool that can help individual drivers and overall fleet operations be more productive,” said Cyndi Brandt, senior director of product marketing and alliances for Roadnet. “We continue to recognize the market adoption of SaaS as a delivery platform and are ensuring that our investments in Roadnet Anywhere can be leveraged by our on-premise customers.”
