"I just want to thank you for everything you’ve done for us. I feel like sometimes I can really be a real pain in the butt but you always come through and help me in every way you can. I know it can be very frustrating at times. I know you are a very busy & dedicated individual and there aren’t enough people like yourself out there. You always make sure you return all my calls or at least e-mail me back, and to me, that goes beyond the call of duty. I just wanted to personally thank you for your excellent customer service. Thanks again."
“Since we had worked with information systems in logistics before, we knew the importance of controlling and managing the information that was coming in, and going out. We were wary of trying to do it with spreadsheets and the challenges of version control.”
"Tailwind has made our daily routine much easier and efficient. Tracking equipment, payables and receivables, as well as, sending orders and quotes is quite simple. Tailwind’s support department is good, anytime we have a problem we are able to get answers promptly. I did a little bit of training with Tailwind’s trainer, but I mostly learned how to use the system by navigating through it on my own. I found it easy to use, it made sense to me."
"Tailwind’s provides a clear board that uses a variety of colours and headings to make it easy to read and offers a great deal of information. The setup of the program is straightforward, allowing for smooth work processes. The error pop-ups provide a clear explanation of the problem so you know where and how to correct the error. They also have excellent customer support services with representatives who are able to explain things in a manner that is easy to understand. Overall, I would recommend this program to any dispatch in the industry. It is a very user friendly system that provides all the necessary information to complete the required daily processes."
"Before Tailwind, we weren’t using any software to manage our operation and everything was handled by pen and paper. That did the trick while we were small and only had a few trucks, but once we started to focus on growing the company, we knew we needed a good system to help us grow. Tailwind has been really great and is a crucial part of our business. It helped us grow. Paying owner operators and keeping track of everything would be impossible without Tailwind. The software itself is great, but more importantly, the training and support is superb. Tailwind’s staff has always been there to help us from the beginning, and I would recommend it to every trucking business out there."
"Tailwind has grown and it shows. Your customer service is incredible. I love learning and your support team can teach me how to tackle my software issues. When our companies work together to build a relationship we both can achieve success. Our old system was DOS based and when we upgraded our computers we needed to get a new Transportation Management System. After a year of using Tailwind, I feel like I understand how to use the system, I can get help when I have a problem and I have the ability to cross-train with my staff so the system is continually adapting to our evolving business needs."
“I feel that I have just touched the surface on what I can do in this business,” he shared. “And it’s probably the same for how I am using the Tailwind application – I am sure I will use it even more as my business grows.”
"We have been using Tailwind since 2005 and could not be happier with the program. This program has increased our efficiency within our company. The over the phone training they offer was convenient and easy to comprehend. They are very friendly and always ready to answer any questions that we have. The system is very user friendly. It is so easy to enter new orders, make corrections, research and do invoicing. We also like how easy it is to look up the company financial sales, cost and receivables by using the report function that is available. We highly recommend this program; it has been a number one tool for us."
"We are a small company, it’s just me, my employer and 5 drivers. We just received our authority two years ago. The old software we were using was very tedious and I never heard back from their support department when I needed help. With Tailwind I can punch in 5 dispatches in less than 15 minutes, it used to take me about an hour. I save a significant amount of time using Tailwind. The training is wonderful, I appreciate the Q&A classes and the structure that is available to learn how to use the system. Your trainer is quick to accommodate and can answer all of my questions. Tailwind’s support department is incredible, I have a solution to a technical problem within 20 minutes they have called me directly instead of sending me emails, making it easier for this old dog to learn new tricks."
“The free trial helped. I found it was easy to learn. I attended Lynda’s free training sessions, went on the Tailwind YouTube channel to see the all the videos available to me on how to use the system, and I have gotten to know all your support group – I feel that I know everyone on the team, and they know me!”
"Tailwinds allows for smooth work processes and efficiency with minimal staffing requirements allowing for greater profitability and the system and execution are simple and very user-friendly."
"Tailwind has been a wonderful company to work with! As a specialized transportation company, it was very difficult to find a software program on the market to fit our dispatch, accounting, and maintenance needs without breaking the bank. Tailwind has been able to meet all of our needs and is continuously adapting to make sure the software works for our business. The support team is very responsive and always finds an answer to our problem. We are still adjusting to a new software program, but we are thankful that we chose Tailwind!"
"Very user friendly, very simple and easy to find information. I can get information from 3-4 years from using the system about driver, power units, trailers, customers, vendors etc."
"We were able to adapt the Tailwind platform with ease and the learning curve was short. System has a lot of functionality and the support by their staff is excellent! Greatly enhanced our capability to manage our transportation services.I would definitely recommend Tailwind!"
"We began searching for an operations software package in early 2007. After investigating a number of systems, we found Tailwind. The Tailwind staff made the transition from manual to automated very easy. They were all very professional and maintained timelines that were very tight. Tailwind helped us to adapt forms (quote, Load Contract, etc) to look and feel like the manual systems so that it was a seamless change for our customers and vendors. And they didn’t nickel and dime us every time we needed something changed. They provided excellent on site and after regular business hours training as well as distance service. At the same time, we needed to change accounting systems to fully utilize Tailwind and their staff made the transition as painless as possible with real help for our accounting personnel. We’ve been operating with the system in place for about 16 months and every issue that we have had, and there have not been many, have been addressed quickly and professionally by the Tailwind staff. My background is the courier industry and I have been involved in purchasing, installing and training three different operations systems like this and the problems were horrendous; timelines were constantly missed, we were left on our own to solve issues and each offered their own different problems. Those problems affected our operational abilities and our bottom line. I highly recommend the Tailwind operations system to anyone who is interested."
