DAT Board Review

Very easy to use. Customer service is great!

PROS

Very user friendly. Not many under scored brokers on the platform.

Hard to get loads because of the competition. Haven't been able to acquire a dedicated lane or contract from DAT board so far

Used to be good....

Used to be good especially for that money, now the prices are almost 200 per use it's insane. And very often website is down. Not worst the money. And DAT ONE is the worst if they will switch will lose all their customers

PROS

Value of loads, easy to use, easy to put searches or edit

CONS

Very often the website is done and have to refresh manually

DAT Review

PROS

The product is fairly easy to use. Easy to read.

CONS

The refresh rate is very slow. It is suppose to refresh on its own but I have to refresh it on my own every minute.

Reasons for switching to DAT Load Board

I feel ITS Truckstop just fell off in quality. It used to be my number one for load searches. Then since a few years back I never booked a single load from them. Most loads were posted on DAT.
