Very positive. They are always helpful and take into account our ideas and needs
Pros: I like that it is easy to use and we can tailor it to fit our company needs. The support is good
Cons: I dislike that there isn’t yet an easy way to do audits for multiple customer locations that intermingle.

Very helpful and thoughtful to work with
Pros: Helps us track our cylinders and keep up with the assets
Cons: Nothing comes to mind everything works as expected
Jason H. · Asset manager · Wholesale · May 14, 2025
Pros: The ability to track our and our customer assets from the initial transaction through the life of the asset has brought incredible insight to our business. We are now able to show customers exactly what cylinder was delivered, and when it was picked up. We have a real time accounting of all of our assets.

Cons: The customer service has been hard to work with since the pandemic. A lot of times we feel that the customer service rep doesn't actually understand our issues or questions, and sometimes all communication just stops.
Travis H. · Manager - ERP Software Applications · Logistics and Supply Chain · June 7, 2024
We need real time status updates on our fleet of reusable containers. Trackabout is a reliable and easy to use for our front line people. Implementing Trackabout has saved my team a significant amount of time and effort as we manage our fleet of assets.
Pros: Trackabout is significantly easiser to use than our old tracking system, and their team helped make our conversion successful. They provided quick responses to our questions and resolved issues rapidly.
Cons: Some modifications require us to enter a support ticket, as opposed to being able to do our own configuration. Trackabout does provide rapid response to these requests though.

Pros: This software being able to be used on almost any device and using the devise camera as the scanner is the best part.
Cons: There isn't any tutorial to get started. We have had to play around till we figured how to use it then could start training from there.
Vincent E. · supervisor · Medical Devices · October 27, 2017
Makes my job faster and simple
Pros: I find the software easy to use it is not complicated at all and for someone who is not a tech person ease of use is very important
Cons: App will occasionally crash on my phone smacking it difficult to complete a job without rebooting my phone
Robert M. · Driver · Health, Wellness and Fitness · October 26, 2017
Helps us track equipment, no more wondering where the machines are.
Pros: rapid fire scanning, cell phone app that allows drivers to use the equipment in remote areas where there isnt wifi
Cons: The UI is a bit clunky, lacks the modern elegance that software should have, looks like it was created about 15 years ago and never updated. (This applies to the UI only, not the backend) The software works great.

Lokesh K. · September 24, 2017
Pros: Flexible. we used the software for a project unrelated to its original design but functionally similar in activity. Their technical support helped us creatively solve our business issue.
Cons: The reporting took a little time to get set up for our desired outcome, but after consulting with the technical support we were able to get the proper reporting needs covered.
Brent D. · Chief Financial Officer · September 11, 2017
Pros: The trackabout team is very helpful in keeping us flexible with our customers with custom reports. It also gives our system more credibilty when asset issues come up with customers since a third party overseer is tracking all changes that take place. They are very accessable team if you have an issue. We use them as part of our value added presentation when we try to convince customers we are the vendor to choose.
Cons: Not alot on this catagory, some custom reports are very cost effe tive while some seem pricey. I am not a fan of the newest upgrade just changing the format and view. It doesnt seem as easy to get around to where you want to be, or at least where I want to be. I am sure the prompts are probably set up for the actions most used overall but as with most changes that have taken place in the last ten years I liked it better the old way
Mike P. · Manager · September 4, 2017
Pros: TrackAbout handles the tracking of our assets from start to finish with few issues. The ability to utilize the application and access our information on multiple devices types is a huge benefit.
Cons: The TrackAbout webpage recent redesign has added multiple steps to gathering information that was previously accessible in one area with one click.
David H. · Director of Hardgoods Operations · August 30, 2017
TrackAbout has flexibility. Can add comments / notes in multiple ways and attach to patient or asset. Can help to explain any issues with an asset that could be helpful to know in the future. Lets the next person know what has occurred if questions. This is a very robust system and feel I have not even touched the surface yet.
Pros: It does what it is supposed to do. Should have no problem knowing where assets are located. Multiple ways to search for assets depending on what criteria you have available to identify asset.
Cons: Software developed with gas suppliers / fillers in mind. I am a DME company dispensing medical equipment to the home. I track patients as well as the equipment. System works very well, but would like to see the last name, first name, middle initial entered in separate fields.
Jan H. · Clinical Manager · Medical Devices · August 30, 2017
Pros: The ability to show movement of the cylinders and provide the customer with data dating back 10 years of their cylinder movement. At a movements notice we can tell them what cylinders they have and even the barcode numbers on those cylinders and how long they have had it. Also , our team appreciates using the preventive maintenance logs on the larger vessels.
Cons: A large con we have is writing an order before being able to scan a cylinder with the new system. This changes the customer flow we have become accustom to.
brad l. · IT Director · August 30, 2017
Visibility of our containers throughout the system.
Pros: I like the visibility this provides throughout the organization tracking our containers. It also helps us provide our sales team what the customer has out and how long they have had them.
Cons: The thing I like least about the program right now is I do not know how to find the information that I am looking for. I think after I use it more often, I do not think this will be an issue any more.
Ryan B. · Assistant Controller · Chemicals · August 30, 2017
We are able to not only track but also reconcile our accounting software and delivery tickets with the software. It does take a large chunk of our time to resolve collisions and verify PPS but it really is the best way to keep our data scrubbed to ensure our customer's trust.
Pros: The flexibility that it allows. The mobile software needs to be fully off line though. It can log you out while on the road ( driver team) and they have now access internet signal.
Cons: Really just need to tweak the mobile software. Seems to be a small bug that locks up intermittenly on the PPS scan. Our team really needs the functionality of being able to add in the Customer and PPS at the end of the transaction so that we can meet customers at the dock and ensure they have the correct cylinders etc.
Logan R. · General Manager Itasca · Logistics and Supply Chain · August 30, 2017
Pros: Barcode feature Easy to use both on smart phone and desktop provides an organized structure for tracking assets support from the team in case of any issue and I must say the team is very good and patient.
Cons: Custom reports- you sometimes just a report for a specific task and you need it instant. As much as the data is in trackabout, I should have the option to download all the data to and to do my own filtering and adjustment. This will be time consuming on my side but I still get access to the data whenever I need. The current process is to contact your team to be able to generate this report in a customized manner. This is great if I need the same report every month and to save time, I need it in some custom fields.
Prosper S. · Finance Manager · August 30, 2017
Improved accuracy of asset tracking data. Increased efficiency and better support for our staff and customers.
Pros: Easy to use. Flexible in use. It has significantly improved the accuracy and efficiency of our asset tracking process. Excellent support both during and after implementation.
Cons: No direct access to database for reporting. Some of the reporting is limited but custom reports can be built.
Curt D. · Vice President, Finance · Chemicals · August 29, 2017
The visibility of our assets across our organization and that of our customer base.
Pros: The software has been designed from the ground up for the Industry. It has taken the most common issues and solved them in the easiest manner possible.
Cons: The DB is not fully accessible and able to be queried. I would like the ability to have unfettered access to my information.
Ryan D. · Master and Commander · Warehousing · August 29, 2017
We get reliable cylinder tracking information. We have yet to move to a barcoded process, but I am excited to see the additional features offered with this.
Pros: I like that the system holds the cylinder balances and is accurate and reliable. It is rather simple to pull up a customers cylinder balance.
Cons: We have a lot of issues with our integration with Tecsys which does not appear to be a Trackabout issue. That being said to find rental rates is cumbersome in that I have to run the report. This should be much easier than it is.
Paul E. · Area Manager · Packaging and Containers · August 29, 2017
Reliability, ease of use and good reporting and analysis.
Pros: It's robust, trustworthy and has a lot good functionality. We just rolled out FoT to a customer and they have found it very easy to set up and use and are extremely happy, which is great news for us too! Support is excellent. The software provides a lot of opportunity for us to expand it's use in the future. The customisation we requested during implementation works very well.
Cons: The mobile app is disappointingly basic and prohibitively expensive at this moment. The value isn't there for us yet but with enhanced functionality, I think this is something we would be keen to invest in in the future with the right billing structure.
Kirsty W. · Finance manager · Chemicals · August 29, 2017
Real time tracking of our expensive DME equipment and tracking of our 1000's and 1000's of cylinders.
Pros: I like the fact that this software is real-time cloud-based and is available anywhere with an internet/cellular connection. Adding users, items, customers, etc. is very simple and when I am stuck TrackAbout is very prompt when assisting me fix my issues.
Cons: There is not much to dislike. I guess the setup process is very tedious and time consuming for a company starting fresh having never used a service like this. And of course, bar coding each and every item takes a lot of time and labor to do correctly.
Ben K. · President · Hospital & Health Care · August 29, 2017
Has been a lifesaver for organization and industry. Don't know how we did it before TrackAbout. Excellent program since day one!
Pros: Real-Time deliveries
Cons: Reporting could be better
Jesus M. · DME Supervisor · Medical Devices · January 5, 2017
Pros - User friendly - Many Options - Good On Site Implementation - Highly skilled personnel Cons - Flexibility - Hour diference in support issues
Dimitrios S. · Planning Manager · March 2, 2016
The TrackAbout software was designed for an entirely different industry, but they have done a terrific job of making it work for us. We are able to effectively track our assets in real time and have confidence when reporting for tax purposes that we are using accurate information. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful.
