## Overview

### Key benefits of Routal

Implementing Routal transforms your logistics operations from a cost center into a competitive advantage. Here is how our platform drives value for your business:

1. Drastic Cost Reduction
The primary benefit of Routal is immediate savings. By optimizing route density and reducing unnecessary mileage, our clients reduce fuel consumption and vehicle wear and tear by up to 30%. Additionally, automated planning reduces the need for overtime and allows you to complete more deliveries with the same number of vehicles.
2. Time Savings in Administration
Manual route planning is slow and prone to errors. Routal cuts planning time from hours to minutes. What used to take a dispatcher all morning can now be done with a few clicks, freeing up your team to focus on strategic tasks and exception management rather than staring at maps.
3. Improved Customer Satisfaction
In the modern economy, customers expect transparency. Routal reduces "Where is my order?" support calls by up to 70% by proactively notifying customers via SMS and Email. Providing accurate ETAs and live tracking links increases trust, reduces failed delivery attempts (since customers know when to be home), and improves your Net Promoter Score (NPS).
4. Total Operational Visibility
You cannot improve what you cannot measure. Routal gives you a bird's-eye view of your entire operation. You will know exactly when drivers start their shifts, how long they spend at each stop, and if they are deviating from the plan. This visibility drives accountability and helps you identify top performers versus those who need coaching.
5. Paperless Operations
Eliminate the chaos of paper manifests and lost delivery notes. With our digital Proof of Delivery, everything is stored in the cloud instantly. Signatures, photos, and scanned barcodes are accessible in real-time, speeding up invoicing and resolving customer disputes faster.
6. Scalability and Flexibility
Routal is designed to grow with you. Whether you are adding new vehicles during peak season or expanding into new territories, our SaaS model allows you to scale up instantly without expensive hardware investments. Our flexible constraint management handles complex real-world scenarios, ensuring the software adapts to your business rules, not the other way around.
7. Reduced Environmental Impact
Sustainability is becoming a priority for many businesses. By optimizing routes to drive fewer kilometers, you directly reduce your fleet's carbon footprint (CO2 emissions), helping you meet sustainability goals while saving money.

### "Excelente servicio de Highway" — 5.0/5

> **Mauricio** | *18 May 2020* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Nuestra experiencia con Highway ha sido espectacular. No solo tienen un producto bueno que elimina múltiples horas manuales de trabajo y optimiza rutas y costos, si no también tienen un equipo dedicado y flexible para ajustar cualquier tema que nos pueda ayudar. Es un placer trabajar con ellos.
> 
> **Cons**: Son menores ya que ellos reciben muy bien el feedback y cambian lo que tienen que cambiar. El único tema es nuestra diferencia de horaros, pero muy bien el servicio.
> 
> Ha sido una experiencia fenomenal con Highway. Muy recomendable.

### "Software rapido de incorporar para distintos niveles de usuarios de tecnologia" — 4.0/5

> **diego** | *24 January 2022* | Package/Freight Delivery | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Es amigable para trabajar teniendo una interfaz con el usuario que relaciona los datos con un panorama visual
> 
> **Cons**: El optimizar automatico no me funciona bien al distribuir rutas de pocos puntos y me gustaria que se pudiera elegir entre optimización en base al tiempo o en base a la distancia recorrida. La última actualización cometio el gran error de que no funciona en dispositivos moviles lo cual es terrible, ya que cuando no estoy frente a un pc no puedo solucionar una emergencia.

### "Un muy buen descubrimiento\!" — 5.0/5

> **Mateo** | *01 August 2023* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Para nuestra operativa lo más importante son las pruebas de entrega y este software es ideal para tener un correcto registro de toda la información.
> 
> **Cons**: Diría que nada, por ahora todo 10 puntos. Igual, es verdad que nosotros le damos un uso muy básico y quizás por eso no hemos encontrado defectos.
