53 Remix Testimonials

"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."

“This was perhaps my favorite public-meeting experience ever, since we came up with a solution that everyone liked, and some of our riders left the meeting knowing that they had a real constructive impact on shaping their transit system.”

“Remix has taken the heartache out of planning.”

“In Remix, it was very easy to show them around. When we were done talking about Route 100, we could look at Route 300, and everyone could quickly see where things go.”

“Remix is the first tool where we can really play with our ideas and see the outcomes instantly. We just move a lot faster. We have better ideas because we can think more or less continuously.”

“When planning, we're always trying to figure out commuter patterns. Remix provides that information in a very simple and visual way."

“Everything from long-range, 20-year long-range planning all the way down to operator scheduling, runcutting, bidding, bid administration, and every step in between. We do long-range planning, we do short-range planning, we do annual budget developments, we do both short-range and long-range service planning and changes, route expansions and improvements, project implementation. We also have a large role in technology implementation and projects, so right now we’re in the middle of the implementation of our automated vehicle location system. We do our routine service and schedule changes, which includes assembling and administering the bidding process. This part of the year, we’re starting on our annual budgeting process for trading out budgets for the next year, our operating budget and our capital budget, which we do every year for a 10-year window. Also, we do a lot of grant work.”

“I could have done it without Remix, but it would have been such a time-consuming process. The time of planning, and the management of information, has changed so much with Remix. It’s such a great tool and such a rich resource.”

"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 never had drivers do multiple routes with the same bus before. This would have been difficult to do by hand since we never had such complex routes, on top of adding peak service hours. And now we’re saving a whole lot of money because of it.”

"What's great is that more than just planners use Remix at our agency. Anyone here can use Remix to work on concepts, which allows us to get as creative as we want."

“We could pull Remix up on the screen in every meeting and say, ‘Okay, I’d like to see the route go down this street,’ and we could see roughly how much that would cost us in real time.”

“With Remix, it’s so much easier than any tool we’ve ever used. We want everything to come back to Remix so we have it in place for future modifications.”

“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 took what was always a laborious process and turned it into an extremely simple, dynamic method of doing both on-the-fly and detailed service planning.”
