OptimoRoute

What OptimoRoute is

OptimoRoute is an online route planning and optimization solution for delivery, logistics, and field service companies. Its automated planning builds routes and schedules while accounting for time windows, driver work times and skills, vehicle load capacity, and vehicle features. The native driver app for iOS and Android provides route details, navigation, and updates. Drivers can capture digital signatures, photos, and notes as proof of delivery. The app provides real-time driver locations and estimated arrival times, while customers can receive live order-tracking links. A REST-based Web Service API uses JSON, requires an authentication key, and is available on all price plans. It can connect with systems such as SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Oracle NetSuite, Zapier, Salesforce, Zoho, and Shopify. The company says it is SOC 2 Type 1 certified. A free 30-day trial is available without installation or a credit card. Lite costs $35.10 a month per driver when billed annually and permits up to 700 orders at once. Pro costs $44.10 a month per driver when billed annually and permits up to 1000 orders at once. Custom supports thousands of orders at once, with price not listed.
