DAT iQ

I truly love and enjoy the way DAT iQ is set up. It caters to my needs when I need to know what the current market trends are showing. Also, it does a lot of analytical background work that can really come in handy and can give you the overall perspective of how the company is performing overall.

I love that my contribution data helps to inform my view of the market in the benchmark tool. The dashboard, which summarizes load posting and truck postings also helps me to predict macro changes in the market.

The ability to go back up to 12 months on any lane and have the Rateview comparisons for those specific times makes it possible to actually compare company performance to the market. The filters for lane consistency help me a lot in identifying long term and short-term lane issues along with RFP strengths and weaknesses.

Very comprehensive modeling and direct feedback into your performance with areas to focus on if you are open to implement that to your network.

Overall this product helps me understand logistics and allows me to keep my brokers honest when giving me pricing.

I am able to get a mileage as well as a rate all on the same page. I appreciate seeing the history as well when deciding what rate to use on a particular lane.

The ease and the amount of users on the platform makes it easy to find a truck fast.

DAT has helped us know the market rates compared to our budget.

Have been a member since 2015 and DAT iQ continues to reinvent and grow its capability on transportation management.

I love the lane by lane data, it helps take market insight and really drill down to what my organization is seeing that might be different due to volume/lane/mode mix...vs what the C-suite may be hearing generally.

DAT iQ is a crucial datapoint to keep us in the know on market movement.

“What do you like best about DAT iQ?” Helps keep my rates consistent and correctly quoted. My customers have us ship prepaid more often than picking up themselves.

The resources that DAT IQ provides is invaluable for what we need to accomplish in our division.

I like that I am able to simply enter the origin and destination cities of a shipment and get visibility to up-to-date spot market rates on truckloads.

DAT iQ Tools enable me to provide a level of confidence regarding a client's performance to the market when it comes to transportation pricing. DAT iQ does that by having a very detailed approach and methodology that takes into account a lot of different factors that affect a transportation rate...The willingness of the DAT team members to walk a customer through the data and why a benchmark looks the way it does and not just "wave away" variability, is also important. Knowing and being confident in the math behind the service is critical for us.

I love how easy to use it is, I use it every day for my load management. I can have visibility on how the market is acting, if my rates are in the correct direction. I love the Market Overview Map where I can see which states are HOT, so I can negotiate better with the customer and carriers, it is really helpful in every aspect!

I've been using it every day to get a feel of the market and what the rates are looking like in certain areas and it's been extremely accurate and it has helped me make a bit of profit in these tough times. It is easy to integrate and if you have any questions there's a quick support team that takes care of your problems... It is very easy to use and very user-friendly....Being able to provide your customers with real and accurate information is definitely an upper hand because that is how to grow the relationship, giving them transparency and information that only select tools can provide.

I love how it is easy to navigate and provides every bit of information needed for freight and analytics.

The outbound market conditions index is a game changer for our operations team.

DAT iQ is set up so well and makes functionality a breeze.

I think what is most helpful about DAT is that it is a comprehensive platform that offers various features and tools for freight transportation and analytics. Some of the advantages are that the platform utilizes advanced data analytics to provide predictive freight market insights. It helps users anticipate future demand, identify potential capacity constraints, and optimize their operations accordingly.

Better tech than what we previously used! I imagine it will continue to get better as I continue to get used to it.

DAT iQ assists me in spot quoting for customers at any given time. It exposes me to carriers that frequently search or post for a particular lane.

I enjoy the ease of use, I can’t think of any negatives.

I like rateview most because it allows me to find rates quickly when quoting. I’m able to source trucks in 10 minutes or less.
