TransitQuote Pro v 4.3.0 has now been released and the update includes a number of the great suggestions we have received from our customers over the past few months.
One of the core processes of any transportation business is allocating jobs to drivers.
Whether you run a courier, private vehicle hire service, do home removals or deliver food your business will be more effective with a fast and simple way to give accurate details of each new job to your staff.
With the release of the TransitTeam add-on for TransitQuote Pro we aim to make this process more efficient for companies that use a WordPress website to accept online orders for delivery or transportation services.
Think for a moment about your the website for your transportation business.
What are the business benefits you expect your website to provide?
Do you think of it purely as an advertisement, much like your Yell.com listing?
Does your website exist to help new customers to discover you when the search for couriers, freight or delivery services on Google search?
Is it simply a quick way for customers to look up your business phone number?
These are all great reasons, but they are only scratching the surface of what your website can do for you.
A question we are often asked is: Can TransitQuote automatically charge different rates for different vehicle types?
With the TransitQuote Pro WordPress Plugin, presenting your customer with a choice of distance-based prices is one of many features that come as standard.
Managing a transportation business can be stressful.
As your client base grows so do your responsibilities.
More jobs to complete means taking on more staff.
More staff means more to organize, more communication, less time for you and often more stress.
As you hire contractors, part time staff and full time staff it’s essential to make sure the right person has the right information at the right time.
This is true of any business, but it is especially the case when each job has a tight deadline.

2019 is going to be a huge year for us at TransitQuote. We are accelerating through our product roadmap and preparing to release some much requested add-ons and upgrades to help you grow and streamline your business.
New Year’s day is a special time. The frenzy of pre-holiday activity is over. The celebrations are winding down. This is the perfect time to take stock of the past year and consider all the possibilities the next year will bring.
2018 was an exciting year here at TransitQuote. We have taken great strides towards our goal of making TranistQuote Pro the fastest way to set up an automated online quote, ordering and payment system for the transportation industry.
Here are some of the highlights of our year.
The latest release of TransitQuote Pro transportation quote calculator includes a number of small but important improvements based on customer feedback.
If your transportation or delivery business operates in a specific geographical area such as a city or district, you can now set up a radius from your center of business operations and prevent job requests for customers from outside of this area.
We have always had a geographical restriction in place for the list of addresses that appear in the drop down addresspicker using Google’s “location biasing” which prioritizes nearby addresses over those far from your business area.
This update will enforce the restriction so no addresses can be entered if they are outside of the radius you specify.
To enable the radius search limit:
We started using WooCommerce as a payment gateway at the beginning of this year and have had a lot of great feedback on the additional flexibility it provides.
WooCommerce is an incredible ecommerce tool with many useful features other than just processing payments for your delivery company.
WooCommerce includes a customer login feature, where customers can log in to view their orders and invoices. Until now TransitQuote was not compatible with the option to allow customers to log in on the checkout page.
In TransitQuote Pro version 4.2.8 we have fixed this problem so if you use the customer account feature in WooCommerce you can give your customers the option to login as a returning customer on your website.
