Reviewer Insights for: Yard Management Software
Performance of Yard Management Software Across Market Features

Yard Management Software Likes & Dislikes

Like

The user-friendly interface makes implementation, end-user application, and support easy and effective. Increased Visibility and Equipment Awareness, especially across multiple locations, allows for more effective communication and support between operational areas and staff. The quick and responsive nature of YMS Support, and the ability to address concerns quickly and effectively, gives confidence in the product and the service provided.

Like

YMS is very intuitive and easy to use, yet also very powerful. The main visual display (Eagle View) is simple yet very informative as to the status and location of every trailer in the yard.

Like

Visualization of the yard. Driver interface for yard checks and the drivers' ability to identify lost trailers, new trailers, and the ability to move trailers from their user interface.

Dislike

User Roles could be more readily defined; I have had to change roles or add permissions for some users after initial use. Notes for trailer units could clear after a time period, or a prompt could alert users to make a change or delete existing notes. Reports could be more in-depth or offer visualization tools for evaluation.

Dislike

I wouldn't call it a weakness as much as I'd call it a future request and that is to have more flexible BI reporting and dashboarding. The depth of the reports and downloadable data is great, but it would be next level to provide a BI user interface to create custom reports and dashboards.

Dislike

Our yard hostlers would like an audio indication of when there is a new yard move. Our data analysts would like to upload more than 500 lines of data per upload. Our clerks would like an email notification on their user settings as to when a Yard Check is completed. All three of these items are being sent to the Support email today.
