53 Remix Testimonials

"Our main goal with planning a new route is to service as many people as possible. Using Remix gives us more confidence that a new route will be successful because it now becomes a data-driven business case."

“When it came time to finalize the plan, getting buy-in was easier because they actually understood it.”

“There are a lot of ways to skin a cat. We would draw it out, where we thought the proposed termini were, along with the proposed route, and that quickly gives us an estimate of not only the service hours and miles for each of those scenarios, roughly how many people and jobs and other demographic factors are nearby.”

"I have definitely gotten good insights from the Transpo Talk community and good leads on presentation resources. It's nice to feel connected to others who are dealing with the exact same issues. We may not have a lot of answers yet, but it really helps knowing I am not alone in this quickly paced work!"

"We’ve found Remix to be really productive for our purposes in using all the mapping layers, because people will make comparisons about neighborhoods and we’re able to pull up the data with Remix much more efficiently than without the program."

“Being a small agency, we all do everything. Remix has really helped us be the most efficient we can with the equipment we have.”

"Remix makes the manual process of planning transit automatic. Remix helps me visualize options and test out different solutions on the fly."

"It's crucial to have accurate data to see the inequities of access to transportation."

“It’s great to see the effects of how we connect to our neighboring cities, Hamilton and Oakville, how we can incorporate routes there, and inside of our city, and meet the needs of our seniors, without actually spending the money. It was probably a day of clicking.”

“What Remix has done has really streamlined the process for us. It’s really an ideal tool at the intersection of GIS and scheduling.”

"Before having Explore, not everyone in our organization could use the GIS tools that we had to make informed decisions based on facts. That meant that our analysts had to be at meetings to pull up the data. Now with Explore, anyone at Västtrafik can easily access the data and we can share information fluidly."

"With Remix, we don’t risk making the wrong decisions based on gut feeling. We can now make more real-time, data-driven decisions that positively impact our communities."

"We’ve had a big improvement since Remix entered our lives. Previously, in order to show a map or do an analysis with the same quality or data points as in Remix, we had to get information from multiple parts of the organization. Now I can check directly in Remix. The process has streamlined from up to a month down to less than an hour."

"Remix brings clarity for everyone. It’s valuable to have everyone looking at the same platform, the same visuals, and the same facts-- all of which make the conversation more productive for municipalities."

“Imagine being able to visually demonstrate how the change of bus routes would affect population coverage and at the same time show the financial cost – all at the click of a mouse. With Remix, people see trade-offs between planning decisions in seconds, in a way that is easy to understand.”
