Internet Truck Stop

Booked a load today. Nothing different. $150 version. Once I started using ITS, I haven't bothered with DAT. Only thing I miss is the year long snapshot of DTP and credit score. Easier than ITS when it comes to spotting a bad or good trend.

 

No worries, all that money you pay out... Phone must ring off the hook anyhow.

 

I was mostly kidding. I actually do use it. The desktop version is great, especially the tools. What has been said here before about ITS is true though, it must be better for open deck. It is not that great for van. DAT is the winner for van. Personally I'm still riding the wave mostly using broker load boards lately. Maybe I'm turning a corner, they are contacting me a LOT lately.

Edit: and not just TQL.

 

Yes, It does look different graphically but it is hard for me to determine yet, if it is a change for better. I already noticed some development glitches e.g. after you enter the load search, it does not bring the search results right away. I had to go to searching menu and click on search to get the results.

For the browser, I am using Firefox.

 

I always end up cancelling ITS so don’t currently have it. Once DAT goes offline for a few hours next time I’m sure I’ll end up with it again for a month.

 

Man, when DAT goes offline I feel like someone just released the nukes. Stick a fork in me. I'm done. Then when it comes back I see all the updated crappy 3pl loads and actually feel better somehow!

 

Haha right? It reminds me how easy we have it in this day and age of technology. For everyone hating on brokers, trying running your business for a week with access to none. Most of us would come to a standstill for the most part.
