See analytics and leverage that knowledge to be more competitive in the market place. > > **Cons**: I'm not a fan of the fact that on mobile which is the product I use the most, that I don't have the load information the same way my Dispatchers do. They can see drops, load details that aren't necessarily in the comments, and the route. I wish mobile would show me this information and also wish mobile would allow me to filter out loads under a certain milage. Yes you can click longest or shortest but if you are in NJ with 2000 reefer loads it would be nice to filter before you sort. That way I could dial in what works for my business the best. Now this is coming from somebody who only uses mobile my employees use desktop and can see it however I still drive one of the trucks that I own and so it's more convenient for me to do it on my phone. I would love those options on mobile if you are listening. ----- ### "Nothing to write home about" — 4.0/5 > **KIMBERLY** | *July 31, 2024* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: DAT Load Board is a standard load board. Customer Service is great. > > **Cons**: The least liked part of the DAT load board is that it is overpriced. > > They've had outages and that was not reflected in the billing. ----- ### "Transitioning from DatPower to DatOne is a disrespectful move towards carriers." — 1.0/5 > **Adrian** | *March 4, 2024* | Logistics & Supply Chain | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Currently, I haven't received any positive feedback regarding DatOne. Despite my efforts to remain impartial and adapt to it, I've come to the realization that it's futile. > > **Cons**: The transition from PowerDat to DatOne has proven to be a significant letdown. What used to be a dependable platform has transformed into a labirinth to navigate. The updated interface is overly complicated, hindering the quick and efficient booking of loads. Useful features have either been eliminated or buried beneath layers of unnecessary complexity. It's evident that this supposed upgrade missed the mark entirely. Previously, DAT had a two-step advantage over all other loadboards, but now, regrettably, they're trailing behind by ten steps. > > I'm attempting to remain optimistic, but the truth is, this new loadboard, DatOne, is simply not functional. I have five dispatchers using it, and I'm in touch with numerous other companies' dispatchers, all of whom have nothing but negative feedback about it. They're all expressing frustration, and some are even considering unsubscribing unless improvements are made. What's disheartening is the apparent lack of concern from your end. There have been numerous negative reviews on YouTube comments, and it's evident that instead of addressing the issues, you're deleting them to save face. This speaks volumes about the integrity and commitment of your company. It's truly disappointing. I made the switch from truckstop.com to PowerDat because I thought you were leading the pack by two heads, but unfortunately, with DatOne, you've fallen ten heads behind. It's really disappointing. ----- ### "Great App for Professional Drivers" — 5.0/5 > **Benard** | *August 30, 2023* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The searches, you can freely get a load of your choice to wherever location you want to go. > > **Cons**: Cheap posted rates are too many, the market now is bad but at least reasonable rates are welcome. > > Great and adaptable… ----- ### "DAT Board Review" — 4.0/5 > **Tanessa** | *September 27, 2023* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very user friendly. Not many under scored brokers on the platform. > > **Cons**: Hard to get loads because of the competition. Haven't been able to acquire a dedicated lane or contract from DAT board so far > > Very easy to use. Customer service is great\! ----- Page: 1 / 11\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2060273/dat-load-board?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2060273/dat-load-board) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
