Cost for one person a month

What the price is based on

Price is charged by the crew per month, not by the person, so what you pay follows how many crews go out rather than how many staff you have.

Route planning

A map view shows where crews are booked and one click reorders the day's stops, which the vendor sells as cutting unbillable driving time.

Simply, click 'optimize' and the software finds the best route.
