PCS Express helps to streamline

It's been a good experience the last few years. Without Express, we'd still be spending dozens of hours weekly just typing up invoices within Quickbooks.

PROS

The biggest thing that we love about Express is the auto-rating features. It makes training new billing clerks a snap, because we don't have to show them the intricacies of each different customer. Further, we really enjoy the access to load information. You get back what you put in, so if you add all the information on a BOL, it means you can easily search for that information when you really need it.

CONS

It's not built for Canadian companies, and you have to manually add GST to each invoice which can get tedious.

Reason for choosing PCS TMS

Better price point, better functionality, and the team seemed very committed to training us how to use the software properly.

Vendor Response

Hi Emerson, We are so happy to hear that PCS has been helping you over the last two years. I've passed your feedback to our developers. We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.

With over 2 years experience using PCS

PCS has stopped almost all double entry and tracking for my business. We can easily track all our assets and transactions.

PROS

PCS offers a complete accounting product with easy to use modules and ready to run reports for auditing and tracking your financial progress. Driver payroll works great, but best of all the fuel and escrow balances work so well behind the scene making things simple and reliable.

CONS

I used to use a premium accounting software that was separate from my dispatch software, but with PCS it's automatic with no double entry. If I have anything negative to say about the accounting and payroll, the payroll is too restrictive and limited. I use a payroll service whose tax computations never match PSC and therefore we have to make a journal entry to wash things out correctly. When I say limited, I'm referring to the number of fields allowed for additional pay like Bonus, Vacation, Holiday. If they all happen on the same payroll, I'm limited to only one selection.

Reasons for switching to PCS TMS

PCS stopped the double entry and added on-line access and I needed a more up-to-date product.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your feedback, we really do appreciate it!

All talk no go

They are very bad to do business with

PROS

mobile app somewhat seemed to work for drivers documents scanned directly into the load

CONS

I believe that [sensitive content hidden] misrepresented the PCS Software to me when he was selling us on the product.1. It is not easy to use, many times we need to find work a rounds which means more work.2. The software has never integrated with Omnitracs like it was sold to us (attached is the email that we get everyday reminding us that it does not work like sold to us)3. The software does not move loads between the brokerage and trucking side (load share) without a lot of work and it doesn't allow the brokerage to make any money unless we change amounts after we move the load. Which means another work a round. We have to manually map every location when sharing a load which means more time and a slower system.4. The more stops on a load the slower the software runs5. [sensitive content hidden] has not reached out to us since last week when I demanded someone to talk to convince us to continue using this software. (I'm guessing nobody cares about PCS software or its customers)6. The Drivers Application is not really an application. Again misrepresented7. [sensitive content hidden] knew we were at go time last Friday[sensitive content hidden] and he knew we were not up and running with an error free system and we haven't heard anything from him. (again not living up to the exceptions that were conveyed went [sensitive content hidden]was selling us on PCS)8. PCS Software locked us out of our account with out any conversation or knowledge of them doing this. very very bad business model

Reason for choosing PCS TMS

[sensitive content hidden] over sold and the software under delivers

Fast, Robust, Dynamic

Excellent hands on training and dedication by the PCS team to train our employees on the best practices and provide tools to utilize the system in order to reduce manual labor and admin work.

PROS

PCS has been a wonderful platform to work with. The training is robust with a lot of hand on videos and webinars. The roadmap shows that PCS is determined to continue to enhance the software to meet the needs of the industry. We enjoy the security and reliability of a cloud base system and the price point meets our company needs.

CONS

If for some reason the software goes down, which is rare but can happen, the company is at a stand still and cannot jump to a backup on the fly.

Reason for choosing PCS TMS

Fast, great layout and ease of use. Born in the cloud

Vendor Response

Patrick, Thank you so much for your thoughtful review. Very happy to hear your feedback!
