Excellent Tool for Calculating and Estimating Route Mileage
We use PC*MILER on a daily basis to calculate and estimate route mileage in a strategic modeling tool that we utilize for our network. PC*MILER saves us literally hours of time and I don't think our strategic modeling tool would be nearly as effective without it.
PROSWhat I like most about PC*MILER is that it can be integrated into Microsoft Excel, which makes it easy to calculate and estimate route distances for large amounts of data.
CONSThere's not much to dislike about the PC*MILER since it does everything I need it to do, but my only complaint might be that it was a little difficult to install the Excel add-in. However, once it was installed and up and running there have been no issues.

Great Trucking Software
PC Miler is specific to the trucking industry allowing us to know the directions we receive are truck approved. We no longer are burdened with additional work to confirm all routes are truck approved. This saves us time and money!
PROSBeing designed for the trucking industry it know where trucks are allowed and where they are not.
CONSIt is an excellent tool, but it is a pretty basic tool compared to other routing software currently available.
Reasons for switching to PC*MILER
We needed something more specific to the trucking industry.

Good; but....
Decent program. The thing that keeps us coming back is the ability to save routes that we use weekly and not have to continuously run them over and over again and it also saves the pricing per mile. If it weren’t for that, we might just use Google maps to do the same thing for free.
PROSPretty easy to use. Moving the routes around is fairly easy. Plugging in stops on a route is very simple and then it will order then for you. If you need to change the order, it’s simple to do.
CONSCustomizing pricing and routes can get a little confusing. It’s not impossible or even infuriating. Just not as simple as you may like it to be.

Game Changer
My overall experience with PC Miler has been a good one. I highly recommend it.
PROSPC MIler is straight forward and easy to use. If you work in the transportation industry on the dispatch and tracking side, then you are familiar with this program.
CONSThere is nothing that I dislike about PC Miler. It is industry leading for a reason. Google maps may be good in a pinch, but nothing can compare to the accuracy of PC Miler.

Great to use, easy to setup
Overall very positive with some bumps along the way.
PROSSuper easy to setup, users are able to share routes and trips. Very intuitive and accurate. Makes sure trucks stay on truck routes. Integrates with TMS programs easily for accurate Fuel Tax Info.

Great Program
I could not put a value on this program. That is how pivotal this program is to my life on a daily basis.
PROSIf you work in the trucking industry this is a must have tool. You can work out the mileage on a 10 stop load if you needed. It gives you the miles and toll totals.
CONSIt's only because it is a part of our internal system, but the program times out after about 2 hours.

PROSThis product is better than google maps at giving truck routes and route miles in planning truck routes.
CONSThe only issue that I have had with PC Miler is that it crashes occasionally.

Know your miles!
Overall, I trust this to get mileage to price FTL lanes.
PROSIt's a great tool to know how many actual miles should be charged for a certain full truckload lane.
CONSIt doesn't always give accurate routing for certain lanes which can be confusing or cause wrong mileage for a rate.

PC Miler is right on point
I use PC*MILER to map out lines and find the best routes for my loads. It is usually right on point every so often there are hiccups as with any software. There are times when the zip code or postal codes are not recognized but those are few and far between. Overall a very good tool to use for anyone in the transport industry.
