About OptimoRoute

OptimoRoute is a web based route planning and scheduling software for delivery and mobile workforces. It's scaleable to a wide array of business from small mom and pop stores, to billion dollar enterprises across the globe.

The software will suggest which driver or technician should serve which orders and in which sequence of road networks, based on all the constraints you set. By planning the smartest stop sequence, it minimizes driving distance and time based costs.

• Appropriately assign orders/jobs requiring a specific skill to drivers/technicians with that skill
• Consider vehicle capacities when planning routes
• Balance workload by hours per driver or number of orders per driver
• Import orders from Excel, or CSV files, copy and paste bulk addresses, or manually add one by one
• Create service areas to automatically assign orders to specific drivers/technicians based on geographic location.
• Export routes either directly to drivers/technicians, to navigation devices such as TomTom, or as an Excel spreadsheet for printing
• Automate processes by integrating OptimoRoute's web service API
