Technology has dramatically altered the expectations of your customers; they have become accustomed to having real-time information at their fingertips. Technology is also enabling carriers to manage their resources more efficiently than ever. If your company is not taking advantage of the technology available today, you are losing significant business opportunities, and profits. But which technology is right for your business?
The Internet is the backbone of any connected system. This communication channel enables real-time information about your entire operation to flow between management, drivers, dispatchers and customers. Having this information means you can provide unparalleled service and benefits to your customers; benefits that will guarantee your customers loyalty and your company’s continued growth.
To this end many have promoted the so called “web application.” A web application is just a fancy web page, and while it does have a great many advantages over a traditional server based system, it also has many inherent problems and limitations. The OnTime System uses a superior technology than either the traditional server based system, or a web application, we call them Smart Clients.
Smart Client Technology combines the productivity and performance of desktop applications with the real time connectivity of the Internet. The OnTime Dispatch and Management tools are not just web pages, but are “real” applications that run on your local computer and thus provide a rich and responsive user experience. At the same time they automatically exchange real-time data over the Internet to other users, partners and customers. What makes the OnTime Smart Client technology even better is they offer reliability impossible with any other system. If you temporarily lose your connection to the Internet, they will gracefully fall back to offline mode, and while you may lose real-time updates for a short time, you can continue to perform critical business functions.
We designed the OnTime System as a suite of applications, each perfectly suited, and designed with the best technology for that specific function. Utilizing the capabilities of the Internet to its fullest, the Smart Client technology of the OnTime System is quickly becoming the method of choice; enabling you to offer unparalleled service to your customers.
You can’t afford to do nothing; and the OnTime System is the smartest way to give your company the technology tools for virtually unlimited growth and put your company ahead of the pack.
