Currently this is intentional as the job allocation is supposed to be done from the HQ/dispatchers office. However if there is enough demand for responsive management and dispatch on the go, a responsive dispatch screen will be developed.
There is no limit on the number of drivers, you can have any number of drivers with no extra charge.
Delivery reports and signatures don’t show on dispatch screen.
Yes, the dispatch screen is only designed to handle current jobs. To see finished jobs, including signatures etc, just go to JOBS – SEARCH JOBS
Scheduled jobs don’t show on dispatch screen.
Scheduled jobs only become active on the dispatch screen when they become active, which is one hour before they are due. The future schedule is in your JOBS -> SCHEDULED JOBS section, where you can see a list of the scheduled jobs.
Is Stripe the only payment option?
Currently yes. You need to create a Stripe account to get paid by credit cards. It takes just 10 minutes. Unfortunately if Stripe is not available in your country, we cannot satisfy payment options.
When you are creating a new courier, you can decide on a % commission for each individual courier. Then, on the jobs screen, you can export all jobs to Excel, which will also include driver details and courier commissions over time.
We are working to eventually build reporting into the system so you won’t need to work with Excel tables.
How can I assign a task to a driver?
Two ways currently.
How can I specify the cost between two points, if I have a regular customer?
The “agreed fares” option allows you to specify a price between two specific points and connect that pricing rule to a specific customer (or apply to all).
How is the city delivery option set?
You can specify what “city” means on the map, so for example, you can box off just a few blocks around your area to be the “city” and then charge less for deliveries done within that area.
Do you have other language options on your site?
Just English for now.
Can we change the quantity of couriers, the size of the package, the type of transport vehicle?
All are fully customisable.
How are customer payments handled? Is it safe?
We use Stripe, which is one of the leading payment providers globally. However Stripe is not active in all countries, so it is availability dependant for now.
Is there a job status update option for couriers?
Currently there is not as most of our courier companies do not want their couriers to be exposed this way.
Is there an employee-only login option?
Currently there is one login level with full administrative access.
How much does a Zoom customer app cost?
A custom Zoom application costs $1500 to create, upload to the app store and update over time.
Will my customer app be branded with Zoom or be customised?
Zero references to Zoom, the branding will be completely custom built for your business.
How does a Zoom-built IOS/Android customer app work?
In the same easy-to-use fashion as the booking pages.
Simple waybill printing for clients on past shipments.
Work in progress at the moment.
How can I add more user created fields that appear on the booking form?
While we can’t currently offer customisation in this area, more fields are being added in the future to suit individual customer needs.
Are different tax options available? (VAT vs GST etc.).
Work in progress at the moment
What are the contract pricing/shipment grouping/additional pricing options?
Currently we’re using the pricing methods most common in the industry. Based on demand and development time we may be adding more options in future. Please let us know your preferred pricing method if ours does not suit you and we’ll attempt to facilitate.
I can’t use the dispatch screen to manually assign a driver to a job. it is unusable on mobile.
This is intended as it is too complicated to be used on a mobile screen. If you select auto-dispatch, drivers can accept the jobs themselves without the need of a dispatcher.
How much does Zoom cost to trial?
There is no charge for the two months of your trial.
You can use the software as much as you like for free for two months.
