41 Tailwind Transportation Software Testimonials

"Order entry and dispatching are easily handled with Tailwind. It’s good value for the money spent and I would recommend it to others."

"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."

"As a startup business I easily completed integration and worked efficiently from day one. The invoicing is very detailed collecting information from the normal workflow of dispatch to billing. Tailwind has developed a very powerful platform with customizable features for any size business. During integration their customer support via live chat that stays with you on each screen is amazing. It’s as good as having an in house IT department in your office working on your system all day. Truly amazing customer support. The training videos allows you to continually go back and learn the basics. The way the system operates and the access to training videos, makes on boarding new employees a snap. They basically do it for you with all of the videos. Lynda is the dedicated trainer and she rocks!"

"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."

"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!"

"Tailwind has given us greater visibility into our dispatch and invoicing, as well as our daily operational challenges. It is extremely rewarding to work with a company that has such exceptional customer service."

"Tailwind dealt directly with my interest and provided patience along with understanding and an open mind for the specific requests. Tailwind’s employees have carried these same customer service elements in our day-to-day communications over the past few years and continue to value me as if I was their only customer. Your team’s ability to reconfigure your programs functionality at any given notice has separated you from your competition by a country mile."

"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."

"I have had a great experience with the software. The staff is very responsive and would gladly be able to train me on anything I need to know."

"All of our information is easily and readily available to us with pinpoint accuracy. Our customers are happier, more informed and better taken care of since we installed the software. We can quickly and accurately track our customers’ loads and update them at a moment’s notice on their shipment status. We do not misplace or lose orders anymore and that has saved us time and money. If an order is not delivered it cannot be billed. Even if the paperwork is misplaced and the order delivered, we will still have the order in the system to bill. The ability to sync to our accounting makes our accountants job easier."

"Tailwind is easy to use and very pleasant to look at (which is important if you have to stare at it for several hours a day). However, the true strength of this offering comes from the company's dedication to making sure that you understand how to use and get the most out of it. Everyone I have talked to there is super pleasant and eager to help. Other software companies just hand it to you and say, figure it out and let us know if you need anything. Not Tailwind. They want to make sure that the software is a good fit for you and will do back flips to make sure you get what you need."

"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."

"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."

“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.”

“We liked the way Tailwind flowed, how it allowed us to interact with our carriers, and the one entry system, where all of our data and information was centralized and connected to the things we needed to do in our Operations and in our Administration.”
