Common complaints - recurring incumbent review gaps = the wedge to build
Initial setup is confusing and requires extensive trial-and-error; multi-vehicle/multi-rep onboarding is cumbersome and takes weeks.
Trip logging fails unpredictably, mileage calculations are incorrect due to phone model/coverage, data loss when app crashes, and trip detection creates duplicates.
Canned responses that don't address issues, unhelpful staff, no phone support available, onerous cancellation policies.
Excessive phone battery consumption when tracking, especially in field service roles; requires workarounds like switching to beacon hardware.
Employees skip required trip details (client name, purpose); app allows submission without mandatory fields; no automated GPS consent management.
Difficult to integrate into accounting systems, report generation is hard to navigate, Excel exports lack user-friendly formatting, limited reporting options.
App frequently crashes/stops working, requires constant manual data syncs, unreliable trip detection (won't start if distance too short), loses mileage data.
