    your wasting $35 a month for that them rates are not even close what carriers haul for I check it sometimes and your never going to move van freight out of Dallas- Akron,oh for $1.57/mi it shows shippers/brokers charging $2.09/mi. The numbers are way off

    I have both 3Sixty and ITS and I find the first one to be much more accurate. Again, don't go literally on what they say or you can get in a world of trouble. Use it as a "reference".

    What this beautiful new day got me:
    ITS is semi-good - quoted customer based on ITS - was off on everything but not a lot.
    Posted "looking for rate" TX-PA load - and got russian driver on the phone who gave me a rate (we are getting setup).
    Got few more calls and also got "you are wasting my time" angry call.

    Kinda like when a broker calls me with a $1/mile load offer to JAX, ignoring the fact that I put $3/mile minimum to FL in the notes. Did I mention that I'm really not interested in going to FL?
