COO Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Robust, yet simple fleet management. I highly Recommend it." September 15, 2021 4.0 Pros Whip Around is a critical part of managing our fleet. It allows our drivers to easily go through a custom checklist pre- and post-trip, which will email the admins of any failures or maintenance issues that are found so they can be quickly resolved. We also use Whip Around to track the miles and have set custom notifications at certain milestones for maintenance BEFORE it's due so that we can plan for downtime, etc. The maintenance module allows us to easily run repots on the overall costs per vehicle which helps us project allowances in our budget quite accurately. Cons The app is always in the portrait orientation. It would be great if when you turned the device it went into landscape. Alternatives considered [Motive](https://www.capterra.com/p/138669/Motive/) Reason for choosing Whip Around We loved how simple the interface is and the staff was helpful and sincere. The pricing structure was simple and cost effective. Review Source JD Josh D. Boring Construction Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Bad terrible " November 27, 2024 1.0 Terrible you guys put a collection agency on my account and destroying my credit. Pros Nothing. This stuff is a scam. And I’m stuck having to pay for it when I don’t even want it. Cons Everything. You guys put a collection agency on it. I don’t even use this crap. And just destroying my credi. I didn’t even want this crap Review Source AP Andrew P. Shop manager Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Shop Manager" November 10, 2022 5.0 Has been great for the last 7years. Inhave brought on 3 different companys and has worked out amazingly. Pros I love the ease of being able to teach new employees how to use the software in less than a day. Its very simple compared to others i have used. Cons Sometimes i which the maintenance side would allow to put in a consistent hourly rate for the techs rather than you or them having to put the cost in manually. Reason for choosing Whip Around Again the ease of use and cost Switched from [Fleet Maintenance Pro](https://www.capterra.com/p/2079/Fleet-Maintenance-Pro/) Ease of use and dvir services. Also links with many gps based services. Review Source BD Brian D. Operations manager Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Logistics usage." March 8, 2022 4.0 Overall WhipAround is a huge improvement to some of the more archaic methods of fleet management. The interface is a healthy design, user friendly, and excellent at navigating you where you want to be. The product itself offers a vast amount of tools and resources available to you at different levels. Pros I enjoy the ease of general fleet management. Helps us detect issues that could otherwise go unnoticed. Cons I don't have much to say about cons, it's more about the usage we personally get out of the product vs the capacity it could provide other companies that operate differently. Switched from [Google Drive](https://www.capterra.com/p/161425/Drive/)[Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) Wanted our fleet managed under 1 program and organized. Review Source BF Bryan F. Operations Director Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Running a Transportation Company for the First Time" October 19, 2022 5.0 I often tell folks, if I didn't run a transportation company I'd be the national sales manager for the U.S. for Whip Around. I'm 100% on the team. Pros The ability to save, sort and analyze data without a team of staff to transfer paper spreadsheets to complex excel files. Cons While the platform design and function has certainly improved since the early days, and I'm pretty sure our company was one of your first U.S. subscribers, there is always room for growth in user/admin functionality and site navigation. But I'm confident you have people already on it. Alternatives considered [Verizon Connect](https://www.capterra.com/p/72551/Fleetmatics-Work/) Reason for choosing Whip Around At the time they did not offer the same services. Although they have been moving into that technology sphere more as of late. Review Source SS Scott S. Operation's Manager Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great product" May 20, 2019 5.0 We are using Whip Around most particularly for Inspection reports on trucks and trailers as well as Inventory control and a mechanics checklist. Thus far, it has been great. We are supposed to be able to combine it with our Verizon Connect account, which we havent figured out as of yet, but it is a matter of time before it gets even better. Pros The ease of use is probably the best thing. We did a simple training for our crew one day and started use the following Monday. It was really easy to use. Cons Have not really found a con as of yet... Alternatives considered [GoCanvas](https://www.capterra.com/p/139882/Canvas-Mobile-Forms/) Reason for choosing Whip Around Price. GoCanvas looked like a good product, however they wanted WAY too much money. They gave us a deep deep discount but we had to make the decision way too soon. And even WITH that discount, Whip Around beat their price. The price is based on how big your fleet is which is MUCH better than the platform GoCanvas has. Our other option was design our own app, which was going to cost us $20k+ and just really wasnt worth the effort. Review Source Response from Whip Around May 22, 2019 Thanks so much for your review Scott and yes we now have an integration with Verizon Connect. We a keen to continue to develop this and improve the customer experience. Please contact your account rep at Verizon Connect to get your credentials to connect the two accounts. If you need help with configuring it please let us know via the online chat. We are there 24/7 to support you. MC Marco C. Managing Partner Environmental Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great one stop shop for maintenance overview" December 11, 2021 5.0 Great Product that keeps my fleet on the right side of DOT compliance. Pros User interface is intuitive and really easy to use. The overview for a driver and his tasks he needs to complete are easily identified and performed leading to 100% compliance. Cons Nothing really.....We find the software meets our needs nicely Alternatives considered [Motive](https://www.capterra.com/p/138669/Motive/) Reason for choosing Whip Around Need Enterprise solution to make effective checklists etc. The more cost effective and comprehensive solution was to incorporate Whip Around Review Source GM Glenn M. Training Manager Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 2+ years ### "GlennM" April 21, 2022 5.0 The online help is very quick and useful when training new admin users. Pros Ease of creating forms that include photos to be input by drivers. Easy for drivers learn to use right away. Cons having to create a 'team' for each driver/asset. Alternatives considered [Fleetio](https://www.capterra.com/p/120855/Fleetio/) Reason for choosing Whip Around Ease of use by drivers and admin staff. Effectiveness of reporting to admin. Review Source KH Kyle H. Fleet Supervisor Farming Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great Product" September 13, 2021 5.0 A+ Great App Pros It’s super easy to use. Anyone can use it. It makes keeping track of a fleet simple and quick to find anything I need. Cons It takes a little while just to get things figured out but once it’s figured out on the backend it’s super easy. Alternatives considered [Hippo Manager](https://www.capterra.com/p/134667/Hippo-Manager/) Reason for choosing Whip Around It had everything we needed without extra bells and whistle’s that just cost extra money. Review Source DM Darrell M. Project Manager Consumer Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Pullman Disposal Review" March 4, 2024 5.0 Very positive especially with the support team Pros It has a very good interface that makes the system easy to use Cons I have not yet found anything that I don't like Reason for choosing Whip Around Fleetio was no where as intuitive as Whip Around Review Source CV Cassandra V. Office assistant Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 2+ years ### "What I wish it had" January 26, 2022 3.0 Its great for pretrips but other than that trying to use anything else I have struggled with bugs or just a release of the feature to early to where it really needed more thought and development. I hope to see some corrections of the current features to make it more used friendly on all platforms. Pros The inspections tab works great its user friendly on both driver and mechanic side and I don't have any issues there. Cons 1) I wish you could make assets available to more than one group. I want to separate my mechanics and drivers since they have separate forms but I would then have to have 2 of every asset making me pay double. 2) I wish you could achieve vehicles. We have had trucks get totaled and we have to keep pretrips for records but we don't need to keep paying for the asset to be active when we don't have it any more. 3) I wish the phone app was more comparable to the computer. There is so much you cant get to or navigate on the phone and it makes it hard when you out in the shop trying to look through inspections and work orders of the truck you are trying to repair. The app overall is just not user friendly for mechanics which makes it hard to teach them to use it. 4) This would be a great tool for mechanic shops if you found a way to make a customer asset for vehicles not owned by the company.

Fleet Manager Utilities Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Whip Around for the Propane Industry" November 3, 2022 5.0 From the day I started my free trial, the team at Whip Around have made themselves very accessible. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] have been super helpful, building custom forms for inspections that are specific to our company's standards. Any time I have reached out with questions or needing assistance, they are quick to reply and help me out. Awesome customer service and support. Pros What I like most about this software is the fact that I get a snapshot every day of what my fleet looks like and what needs to be done to make sure the wheels are always moving. If the wheels aren't moving, this company doesn't make money. I believe in preventative maintenance. I would rather be proactive that reactive. Taking care of my vehicles means they will last longer. Maintaining a vehicle is much cheaper than buying new. Cons As of yet, I have not found anything about the software that I do not like. Reason for choosing Whip Around I chose Whip Around based on price and customer support. Review Source DJ Dakota J. Operations Assistant Manager Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Whip Around Maintenance Review" May 18, 2023 4.0 Pros I enjoy the aspect of scheduling maintenance and it automatically informing us that a scheduled maintenance is coming up or overdue. Cons With the scheduled maintenance, there are times where a truck started over that maintenance threshold and will remain as overdue until it is filled, but cannot be filled. Review Source BH Brian H. Transportation Manager Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "MCU Transportation Operations" June 22, 2021 5.0 Pros inspections, driver logs and mobile signature Cons we have no negative perspectives with this software at this moment in time Reason for choosing Whip Around the online marketing, decent pricing & \[CONTENT HIDDEN\] Review Source GR Gary R. operations manager Oil & Energy Used the software for: 2+ years ### "latx" October 24, 2023 5.0 very satisfied Pros the most useful feature for us is the ease of work orders from inspection to completed Cons in my opinion there are no cons to the whip around system Reason for choosing Whip Around just a total package from inspection to completed work orders Review Source AR Alicia R. Senior Manager Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "WhipAround a very dependable application" July 21, 2022 5.0 I have nothing to say but the excellent application and excellent customer service, our agent calls every month to check and see if all is going well and if we need any further assistance. Pros We like that we are able to trace any repairs, and maintenance due, and the fact that we get notifications is awesome Cons Is not that I like least maybe would be a great idea to add a location when they are doing their inspections Reason for choosing Whip Around due to the overall experience.. no complaints at all. Review Source EM Eugene M. Shop manager Oil & Energy Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Very good program " October 20, 2022 5.0 Best program I have ever used Pros I love everything about this program from the maintenance side to the inspection process Cons I have no bad things to say bad about this program. It take so used to get on how you use it but once you find out how it’s very easily navigated . Reason for choosing Whip Around Customer service Review Source JL Jim L. Fleet Manager Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Makes my job a lot easier and organized" November 1, 2021 5.0 Since starting to use Whip, everything is so much better and easier, communication wise with my whole fleet. This really helps having 3 locations and I can see daily tracking of vehicles even when they're not right in front of me all the time. Pros I love that everything is right in one program that I need to manage my fleet. It gets updated on the fly by myself or the drivers and other managers and keeps it pretty simple to stay on schedule. Cons Maybe I haven't found out how to do it yet but the one and only thing I don't like is if a vehicle has a defect for a longer period of time, say a computer is down and we're waiting on parts for a while, that defect is recorded daily and it doesn't consolidate all dates reported for one repair on a work order. This causes me to have to go back and individually marks "Corrected" on the dates in order to keep the defect pie graph up to date and accurate Review Source ZF Zackary F. Owner Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Give it a shot best software I've found so far!!" May 4, 2022 5.0 Whip Around thus far has been a great investment for my company. Customer service is fast and an actual person. Pros The software is easy to implement and doesn't take much tech savvy to figure out. You are able to set your maintenance needs and inspection needs. Everything is adjustable to meet your needs. Cons Being able to message the drivers. Maybe I don't know how to do it yet. But I would like to be able to set the maintenance needs of that asset and make sure the drivers receive a warning pertaining to just their truck. Review Source BV Bobby V. Operations Manager Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Automation helps! " March 6, 2023 5.0 It has been an overall very positive experience and took very little training to get all our drivers on board Pros Helps track hours, mileage, and holds drivers and mechanics accountable because we can have instant access with alerts to track DVIR defects and how quickly they are addressed Cons Has to be used as a third party app with command Trackit instead of it automatically prompting the driver to “have to” do the pre trip or post trip Reason for choosing Whip Around Cost and ease of use Review Source SI Scott I. Safety Compliance Manager Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Ease of conformity" March 4, 2022 5.0 Except for not completing the template initially (recommended upon implementation), it is well received amongst users thus far Pros Easily self taught to start up. Reducing the amount of options of vehicles is less confusion for driver's starting out using the app, by allowing them to access vehicles associated to their job assignement Cons Sales needs to be forth coming about completely filling in template before uploading. This would have sped up the process and eased the initial setup Reason for choosing Whip Around Ratings from online reviews Review Source JF Justin F. General Manager Automotive Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "WA for WIN" February 22, 2023 5.0 Works great and keeps us all up to date Pros User friendly and good customer service to help answer any questions Cons I haven’t had much problem at all with any of the services Review Source DD Daniel D. Driver Manager Building Materials Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great solution with agility to customize " January 31, 2020 5.0 Improved record keeping of DVIR (electronic), improved depth inspection (photos), improved speed of communication (real-time updates), improved confidence by frontline users (Drivers) that company is adopting technologies that improve their jobs (a building of confident after training) Pros Template based forms which can be customized to my my needs/specifics. Cons Each card or inspection area has limit of (5) reminders/items/descriptions... sometimes needing to created additional cards vs. a longer list. (Yet, I know this limiter leads to more intentional/more thorough/higher engaged inspection) Also, some UX feedback on not being able to go to other fields when keyboard is active other than done. (variable size of tablet screens/pop-up keyboard size may be customer end constraint) Reason for choosing Whip Around A robust but simplified solution that we could easily integrate into our existing processes, adopt as a new process as better/best practice, and roll-out training with confidence to our people, all for a fair price. It also meant something when a senior leader of the company visited, took our questions (taking notes of our industry specific feedback/concerns), and projected the assurance he would personally help (his vested interest and ability to direct) to remove barriers of implementation and invest into our success as a partner. (allocation of Client Success Mgr(s)). While it was a textbook deal closing, the after-sale delivery and support of our roll-out spoke volumes! Review Source Response from Whip Around February 5, 2020 Hi Daniel, Thanks for taking time to provide feedback. The developers have been made aware of your suggestions. If you have other pieces of feedback, please make sure to send those over. RK Ryan K. Fleet Manager Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Overall, Very satisfied" September 21, 2022 4.0 Overall, its wonderful for what we use. Customer service is fantastic and they truly care. Pros Its very easy to use. Whip Around loaded the assets for us and made the transition from paper DVIR's to digital a breeze. They understand if its hard to navigate, it wont be used. Cons Some features like maintenance had to be purchased to get the inspection portion. We only need it for DVIR inspections. Also, integrating a few other options seems to be well heard however not implemented. Feedback was great that other large end users requested the same adjustments, but nothing really happened.
