Cloud Based

 

EA Taxi Dispatch is a cloud based solution that can be accessed right away, anytime, anywhere. No servers or local installation needed. All you need is a computer with a browser and internet. You’ll be able to access from your office, home, and via your mobile device at any time. Being in the cloud allows us to scale out from small 2-3 cab companies to more than 100 cabs. You will always have our most up to date version with the latest features and updates.

 

End to End Solution

 

We offer an end to end solution for small and medium taxi companies. EA Taxi Dispatch will know who is calling, where they are, and who the closest driver to that customer is. Our smart map will display both drivers and customer locations. Our mobile app will allow drivers to view jobs, navigate to the address, call customers, and stay in touch with dispatchers.

 

Mobile Apps

 

Our Android and iOS apps are user friendly, easy to use, available in English/Spanish and extremely effective. Your drivers will be in control with the following features:

·        Driver login – Each driver has their own username and password that can be reset via the dispatch system.

·        Driver Status – Your drivers will be able to select from configurable statuses like, Active, Busy, Recess, etc. This reduces radio activity and allows your dispatchers to stay up to date and aware of what your drivers are doing.

·        Driver Queue – If needed, our mobile apps have the ability to inform drivers where in the queue they are.

·        Job Information – Drivers are able to view a history of their previous jobs.

·        Driver ID – If needed, our app can store and display a driver id or driver info.

·        Job Acceptance – Once a job has been assigned to a driver, a driver can either accept or decline the job.

·        Job Details – Drivers will be able to see the complete details of the assigned job like name, address, comments, etc.

 

·        Navigation – Our app will guide your driver to the pickup location. With integration to your map, drivers will be able to receive step by step navigation.

·        Call – Via our mobile app, you can allow your drivers to inform customers they have arrived via an automated call. The call will be initiated by the driver via our app and an automated call will be placed to customers in their preferred language (English, Spanish, Italian, etc.).

 

Integration with Company Phones

 

Whether you have physical land lines or VoIP (internet) telephone lines, we have the ability to integrate with either and will capture incoming call details. If you have physical landlines, we can connect to up to 8 lines. If you have VoIP (internet) telephone lines we will capture unencrypted SIP packets with call information. If your VoIP lines are encrypted, depending on your provider, we still might be able to integrate.

 

Address Autocomplete

 

We provide both a pre-loaded customer address database and an address lookup box. If the dispatcher is entering a new pickup location for either a new or existing customer, as the dispatcher types, our system will autofill the entry from a list of pre-loaded addresses in our database.

 

Customer Database and Information

 

All information entered into EA Taxi Dispatch System belongs to you and is available at any time. Existing customers will not have to repeat where they would like to be picked up. It remembers previous customers and previous jobs for reuse. You will also be able to see a list of all calls that came in, if they were picked up or ignored and a list of all pick up location addresses.
