The tracking veers off of actual roads but this is due to signal coverage and not app issue. Pros Setup was easy using provide quick start guides. Easy to search and locate shipments in progress. Cons Sharing link with non-user customers doesn't seem intuitive. The link works for the customer, but finding it and sharing isn't really clear. Once you know the steps, it's easy. Maybe it just to many steps. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

They are easy to get a hold of and eager to help. Pros The platform is easy to navigate, and the customer support is very good! Cons I don't like that I cannot turn trackers on and off by myself (I am required to contact our service person). I also don't like that I cannot easily see in the platform whether or not the tracker is on or off. This has not been a huge problem, but I think the product would improve my adding these features. Reasons for choosing Tive The price point was very good compared to other alternatives that were reviewed.
