### "Great software!"

December 25, 2025

5.0

Its been easy to use and with constant updates just keeps getting better. The driver apps are easy to use as well.

Pros

Towbook is a full solution for towing company management, we have run and invoiced over 40,000 calls through it. Its easy to train users on, easy to track drivers and job status and easy to quote jobs. It even has in depth tools for driver commissions and reports.

Cons

The only feature its missing is a time card for drivers, that would truly make it a one stop shop for towing.

Alternatives considered

### "I wish there were 10 stars available for their tech support....."

July 8, 2019

5.0

I have satellite offices and we had trouble coordinating drivers, calls, and information from one admin/dispatcher to the next. Towbook is a VERY affordable option that gives you as much bang for your buck as you can find anywhere. Plus you don't get stuck on hold to speak to someone halfway around the world when you have problems. They have a variety of ways to contact them and they respond in a timely fashion every single time.

Pros

I like most that it's easy to use. I love that it's cloud-based so we can unify all my operations in different places to one real-time experience. I love that the company is very responsive to developing new features independently, but also works hard to implement changes requested by customers. There is not one human being at Towbook software that I have run into so far that I wouldn't be happy to have at my company!

Cons

I seriously have no complaints. Can't complain about the cost, the overall value, or even the ease of getting it set up. They could have called it "Dispatch software for dummies" and wouldn't have been far from the truth.

Reason for choosing Towbook Management Software

At first it was mainly the price. But it has become the one piece of technology that I wouldn't even consider switching out. The price is still the best of all options in the industry, in my opinion. You get great software, ease of use, reliability, responsiveness to developing needs, and the very best tech support of any software I use--hands down.

### "Towbook Invoice and Call number changes"

January 11, 2023

3.0

It has been good for several years (4+). My biggest gripe and reason for writing this review is to inform customers before they get locked into a company whose customer service is obviously going downhill. I'm openly looking for an alternative but have so much invested in Towbook that I am reluctant to leave (like a terrible relationship).

Pros

Ease of use and functionality of the software for transport / towing.

Cons

Customer support has gone downhill in 2023. The company seems more interested in cutting down the time to interact with its customers rather than giving the customer a solid product. Specifically, I am astonished by their complete objection to changing OUR call numbers in the software (which they have done for 4+ years now and promised to do in 2023) to merry up with the calendar year 2300001 etc. The only thing I can attribute this to is laziness and "streamlining" by some pencil-pushing workflow efficiency figurehead to boost profit and cut down on the number of employees. Just bad scenario for the small business who is invested, left with a decision to move on or stick it out.

### "Towbook for the Win "

June 25, 2026

5.0

We use Towbook daily amd it is a great tool to have in your arsenal. Towbook makes digital dispatching simple and highly effective.

Pros

What i like most about towbook is the ease of use. No complicated unnecessary task. Second it's value for the cost.

Cons

The tier status of the platform. You get access to all the app has for free promotional. The lower tier is still great but the top tier features are impressive.

### "The best Towing Software in the industry "

November 14, 2021

5.0

Pros

Towbook is extremely easy to use and has changed the way we do business for the better. This software allows us to easily keep track of what our drivers are doing and plan how to most efficiently utilize our fleet to get people safely out of harms way or to their destination. The visual comparison to the most used social media website makes Towbook very user friendly and non-intimidating. The software support (by online chat, phone and email) is easily and quickly reachable 24/7 and generally a response is helpful with problem solving solutions.

Cons

When there is an outage it really cripples our operations. Thankfully outages don’t last very long and support is generally very transparent as to how long it is expected to last.

### "Towbook Grew Our Company"

December 10, 2018

5.0

We are wrapping up our 3rd year using Towbook. Our business has doubled in truck and staff count, but we can achieve all of our billing needs in less than 20 hours a week. That’s one part time position to cover 24,000 calls a year. From management to drivers and dispatchers, Towbook continues to stay on top of an ever changing industry at a very fair price. The ease of use in the office and on the road is astounding.

Pros

Automation of invoicing Auto submission to motor clubs GPS tracking of drivers Easy to use reporting Commission tracking Impounds customized to our state Constant advancements of software 1st class customer service

Cons

The only con I can find is that I wished we had started sooner.

### "Service I can not live without anymore"

December 20, 2018

5.0

I can bill, make payroll, and dispatch all from my computer and phone. Less time on the phone and more time on the computer. I love it. Thank you making the transition so easy and helping my dad with things he needs so he can use it. Now all of my four companies use this software and we are making things happen for our customer at a rapid rate. Can not thank Tom Bacon for signing me up at the Baltimore Tow Show. I love you guys.

Pros

I love the fact that I can receive and dispatch calls from different motorclubs without texting or printing anymore. I save money from printing and also headache from whether a call was dispatched or not.

Cons

The fact it has a few bugs that crash the app occasionally and hard to ;load up sometimes.

January 18, 2017

5.0

This product has changed my life and my way of doing business. Efficiency and transparency and my greatest benefit from this product. I love the fact that there is no contract or hidden fees. Set up was very easy and I was up and running in one day.

Pros

I can control and operate my business from anywhere

Cons

Would love to be able to store video

5.0

Great! Love it, and would recommend it to everyone!

Pros

Towbook is great whether for the large towing company or the mom & pop towing company. Big or Small it meets everyone’s needs.

Cons

When it’s time for an update, it does effect our use. We have to sign in & our of the app multiple times, to make it work

### "Great Customer Service"

September 27, 2018

5.0

I can say that the staff at Towbook is extremely polite and friendly. Every time I would call in for some troubleshooting, the staff has helped in a quick and professional manner. I would love to have employees like Towbook. Keep up your awesome work Towbook!

Pros

I enjoy everything about Towbook. I really like the Quickbook feature. I like how it just pushes all my sales over. Being on the road as much as I am, I couldn't be in the office to create all those invoices. Towbook pushes all that over for me. Very cool.

Cons

There isn't anything I have come up against that I haven't liked. I'm sure with everyone's feedback, there isn't much to like about Towbook.

### "customer service magic"

February 11, 2019

5.0

speed. it has decreased the time to dispatch. which means we are moving calls faster and giving our drivers the opportunity to get to calls with in the eta's. the reports section is awesome, i am a numbers guy and numbers don't lie and these reports help me understand our business. our accounts love the email option and our customers. we are saving 2500 per year just in going paperless.

Pros

besides the fact that is easy to use and the drivers app is works very well. it's the customer service that i really enjoy. these guys and gals at towbook are friendly, fast, and our honest. if it's a quick fix it's a quick fix if it's gonna take time they will keep you updated. in other words they are the chik filet of tow software.

Cons

so far nothing. they listen. they fix what they can and help mold the software to your needs and if not you can make a suggestion and they listen.

### "Fantastic program! Easy to use and many great features"

May 8, 2017

5.0

It streamlined many features we were looking for into one program. It is easy to use and frustration free. You can also add unlimited users so it is easy to use on different devices or by different employees.

Pros

It is easy to use and learn how to use. The customer service is great, they are friendly and quick to help. It can be used on different devices so it is always accessible. It is affordable and easy to invoice customers, dispatch tows, create estimates, and much more.

### "Collier Towing"

November 21, 2018

5.0

We got a better understanding of the system when we came to the Florida Tow Show. Your staff showed us so many things that the system could do that we was not using.

Pros

The software is so easy to work with. easy to maintain your accounts receivable and payable.

Cons

when two or more people are in the system it sometime acts up.

### "Best Customer Service EVER!"

July 26, 2019

5.0

It has certainly made dispatching much easier not only for the office but for the drivers. The accuracy of the record-keeping is fantastic as well!

Pros

It is so user friendly. Easy to use and understand. We love how you can customize just about any portion to fit the company's needs. The customer service is unparalleled! Everyone is so kind, professional and so helpful, even with the stupid questions!

Cons

The only con would probably be the Impound section, adding files is a little cumbersome and I wish the notes were higher to the impound information.

Reason for choosing Towbook Management Software

We were using the old fashioned paper and pen to dispatch and store records.

### "No words to descibe all aspects of this company!!!!!"

June 16, 2014

5.0

Stewart summed it up very well. I might add that unlike most 'FREE' trial services, they will not take any credit card info until you actually try the program. Not the short or condensed version, but, the complete version along with the unbelievable customer service. They have that much well earned and deserved faith in their product. We have been looking for 2 years and I was finally ready to dreadfully sign up with 'Beacon Dispatch Anywhere'. This now is the second best product on the market. Just more info than the small business towing company needs. (IMHO) The variety of reports available, the ability to instantly calculate p/r, and the ability to take photos and get signatures within the program is invaluable. Within 3 weeks our team is now completely PAPERLESS!!!! Pros: simplicity versatility REAL customer service price customer input Cons: Absolutely NONE! Thank you 'Towbook' for creating a product that finally meets the towers needs. p.s. this is the first review I have ever found worthwhile to write.

### "The Best Tow Software Around"

August 23, 2018

5.0

We are getting paid within a few days of submitting invoices all electronically. Amazing support staff. And they are always adding in new benefits and forms to use. Would recommend to stop shopping for a software that suites you because this is the best one around.

Pros

We tried another company and Towbook has by far been the easiest to work with. Dispatching, Billing, Submitting, Tracking. Top Notch.

Cons

Don't have much to say about the least. Maybe adding in a few other reports to the program for accounting. but you can transfer to Quickbooks. Which we are currently working on.

Towbook is easy to use, so easy a caveman could do it, and In my business most of us are cavemen, but regardless if your on the desktop or mobile device, they've made it easy to receive and send out the calls. I could literally run my business from anywhere.

Pros

Invoicing and generating statements is done in the blink of an eye. Drivers are able to do their job and cut time by more than half with features and functionalities that only towbook offers .

July 19, 2009

5.0

I would recommend this product to anyone with a small or large company that needs a dispatching program to compliment their growing business. I am completly satisfied with TOW BOOK.

Pros

Easy to use and you can adjust your fuel surcharges to each of your contracts as needed. Easily add new services. You can have more than one user at a time on the system with no added charge. Tow book is always looking to add new features that are a benifit to its users. They will take our suggestions and turn it into what we need to do our job.

Cons

Did'nt find it sooner.
