Awesome Service

Overall experience has been Excellent!!!! Great customer support, open to ideas and suggestions from customers.

PROS

All of our information in one place. Do not have to go between systems to dispach, invoice or pay vendors. It is a one stop shop that more than meets all of our needs!!!!

CONS

Nothing really, if I am having a problem with something, I just call support and ALL of the issues are handled quickly.

Reasons for switching to NOVA

Unanet not able to support all of our systems. Had to switch between systems for invoicing and dispatch.

Aurora Software

The people have been great to work with. They have guided us along the process of building our customized software needed to operate our business model.

PROS

That it could be customized to fit our industry needs.

CONS

The change over from our old software to the new software was a bit challenging as a user. Also we are not extremely compatible with Quick Books and it currently forces us to re-enter a lot of information.

Reasons for switching to NOVA

We needed additional options that we did not have at the time.

Nova lack of customer service

Fair, they either dont have enough staff or dont really know what customer service is

It worked well, except when the were doing a upgrade without notifying us. Occasionally it would just stop working. And God forbid you try to call for text support or to order a additional device for a new vehicle, i called a month ago, never hesrd from them.

CONS

Being non responsive numerous times i called

Many Transportation Requirements Not Featured

PROS

The professionalism of the support team. Always cordial and a sincere desire to help.

CONS

The software does not alert you when a driver has an upcoming expiration; cdl, medical certificate, annual review. The maintenance section does not have any alerts for upcoming service, annual inspections, tag renewal. Also, the maintenance section has very limited search capabilities. It will not let you search by VIN #'s or by Tag #'s. This is a huge disadvantage.

Excellent Customer Service and features

For the most part it's really great software, and when there is something wrong Aurora will be there to fix it ASAP. They make you feel like a customer and not just a number. I feel that is the most important thing. Having help when you need it instead of being transferred around and sitting on hold forever. You can overlook the small faults if you know they're on top of it right away.

PROS

Users can play with this software without fear of messing anything up and tailor it to your needs for the most part. Customer service is wonderful, as always, and they are willing to help with anything from the simplest question to implementing new features. It's pretty intuitive... if you feel like you SHOULD be able to do something, more often than not that is how the software is set up to use. Dragging and dropping, right clicking for menus. Color coding and system messages are all so useful with NOVA. Lots of helpful reports for every department.

CONS

In regards to the NOVA software, the help file is painfully out of date, that is, if there's any info on the specific feature at all and not just a blank page. I would rather be able to look up and do something myself than feel the need to call CS every time. New, useful features are added without letting us know. Sometimes it's like a bitter-sweet surprise discovering something "new" only to find out it's been there for months. Still pretty buggy in spots. Updates can cause downtime, but not for long.

Aurora chosen as replacement to our current system

My overall experience with Aurora Software has been outstanding. Our company has many facets. We are a LTL consolidator with in house warehousing, LTL logistics company, and a TL logistics company with a brokerage division. We looked at many packages before making our changeover and none of the others we reviewed could handle all of our multiple functions. Aurora software has benefited us by giving visibility to our dock operations, as well as our, dispatch and back office functions.

PROS

Features I like most about the software are: Visibility for dispatchers and operations - nothing is hidden or lost Integration between modules - no need for double entry of information Interaction with driver applications - engages drivers and allows simplified updates from driver that are captured immediately into the software, including document images. Customer service and resolution to questions are immediate, personal and thorough

CONS

There is nothing that I currently do not like. The biggest challenge for me in this installation has been wrapping my mind around the simplified structure. Coming from the package we are currently using, I am constantly looking for duplication of data, 'work-arounds' for items that cannot be solved, etc. -- So far nothing has come up that Aurora has not been able to address.

Best Dispatch Software

From the Sales team, to their support staff, you can count on them to solve any issue that might come up. 99% of the time we find its something that one of our staff did wrong, yet they are always willing to help figure it out and train the staff person to make sure they completely understand how the system works. If you in the market for a new system, you have to give Aurora Software a look.

PROS

Simple and easy to use. From customer service, Dispatching, billing, and accounting. Everything you need on one platform. It helps keep my team on the same page as the information about our accounts is available to everyone.

CONS

Its hard to answer, any time that we have asked for a simpler way to do any process, Aurora has found a way to modify and make our ideas part of their system. You cant knock a system that works with you and for you.

impeccable customer service

huge thank you to this team! We really appreciate the kindness and efforts we constantly receive from you all!

PROS

This program is EXTREMELY easy to use and the integration process was simple!

CONS

Anytime I find something that doesn't work for me, this team of professionals goes ABOVE and BEYOND to correct it where at all possible.

Reason for choosing NOVA

We did a "test run" run with 3 other companies but none compared to Aurora with the options available for the price, other customer service teams were robotic, and their features were somewhat limited. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] sold this product to us on his customer service skills and willingness to help us through a difficult time business wise. The program nor their team has not let us down in any way since day one! their response time is immediate and that is hard to find in this industry!

Nova

PROS

The software is made for a carrier and the functionality has been carefully crafted through carrier feedback over the years. Their customer support is second to none, and they'll go out of their way to add new features if it's a reasonable request. This gives the software a "custom" feel, even though it's an out-of-the-box solution.

CONS

There isn't too much to dislike about the software. TMS systems that cater to the carrier, or in this case, are exclusively for the carrier, are not easy to find. There are a tons of bells and whistles but they are all there to enhance the carrier's user experience.
