Back office staff can use a set of tools that run in their browsers, to allow them to create dashboards, action buttons, forms, and every other feature listed in this table.
Cut down admin on both ends. Drivers can access paystubs directly in the app, so they don’t need printed slips. And because their duty status is always recorded in Eleos, your accounting team can use this to generate payroll without spending time following up with them.
Use your existing communications workflow with Eleos. No need to require staff to learn and use new tools. Seamlessly hook Eleos into your TMS, company email, Slack, or any other system you like.
Back office staff can message back and forth with drivers in real time, thanks to an intuitive interface in their web-based Eleos Platform Dashboard.
Create unlimited customized forms where the inputs and flows change based on previous answers. This makes creating complex variable workflows very simple, and is extremely useful for things like COVID health screening forms.
Create any number of unique screens or pages in the app that you want drivers to have access to. Collect or display information, perform actions, or really do anything at all you can think of.
Increase driver efficiency, satisfaction, and security, by adding dashboard buttons to perform common or essential tasks. Facilitate one-tap calling or messaging, instantly launch other websites or mobile apps, run scanning, complete workflow steps, or even log out the app.
Tailor the main view that your drivers see, and create different dashboards for different drivers and situations. Want new drivers to see a different view than experienced ones? You can do that. Refrigerated loads should have different options than flat-beds? You can do that too. Any variable you want can be used to create a custom dashboard for a custom segment. There is no limited to the number of dashboards you can create.
Just as you can create custom dashboards, you can also create unlimited custom navigation menus in the app, depending on what your drivers need to see.
Keep abreast of what your drivers are doing, or thinking of doing, with push notifications for trip changes. Back office will get updated in real time whenever a change is made to a route. They’ll also get alerts about how the change affects your trip policies for that load.
Set up customized eBOL and ePOD options. Drivers can view (and sign) eBOLS directly in their app. You can also configure actions that will automatically fire off information to customers and consignees.
Drivers can easily update their duty status without having to use a separate app, and can instantly see on the map where their hours of service will end—both when planning their route, and driving it. Integrate HOS from any ELD or use an enhanced out of the box solution with Geotab, Zonar, or ORBCOMM.
Drivers who have to pick up vehicles from busy yards often have trouble finding their vehicles. With Eleos, dispatch or maintenance can load GPS coordinates with a satellite view of the tractor/trailer’s current location, and drivers can use this to easily find their rides among all the others.
Ensure your legal bases are covered by capturing signatures using the touchscreen of the mobile device that the driver app is running on. Attach these to signatures to documents, or send them to other integrated systems, to record confirmations, or trigger other actions.
Create unlimited workflows for any action or function. Workflows can be defined for whatever situation or condition you need, even down to the individual load, stop, or driver. There are no cookie-cutter solutions here—every workflow can be fully tailored to your business logic, using any data and triggers you like.
Plan future routes based on historical traffic patterns, and adjust these routes based on configurable departure times and HOS. This feature is available both to drivers in the mobile app, and to back office staff in the Trip Planner Studio.
Drivers can send in their paperwork quickly and easily, right from their load workflow screen, complete with doc-typing. This means less busy-work for the back office, contacting drivers and pestering them to send in their load documents.
Back office staff using Trip Planner Studio can not only plan and view prospective and current routes, but also review previous ones. They can see snapshots of every change made to the route, along with the reason why, so they can understand what was happening at each step of the way, and get a better grasp of driver intent.
Avoid drivers getting stuck with expired HOS due to unexpected delays. Inclement weather is clearly marked along planned routes, so they can adjust accordingly before even getting on the road.
Easily prevent distracted driving. Great as Eleos is, most of the time you don’t want your drivers looking at it. With intelligent locking, the app hides its menus whenever navigation is being run. This ensures drivers can’t use it while on the road, improving safety, and making accidents less likely.
Eliminate inaccurate GPS directions from systems that only know where the center of a depot is—not its entrance. Improve your latitude & longitude data by crowd-sourcing it from a reliable source: drivers. Drivers can correct pick-up/delivery location pins by moving them on a satellite map view. When a pin is updated, this change becomes available to every fleet using the Eleos platform, and you can choose to use this updated navigation information.
Avoid unnecessary delays, and cut out the inefficiency of drivers manually changing their routes on the road. Eleos can automatically reroute a load based on live traffic updates, to ensure the fastest and most efficient delivery.
You can always see where a driver, truck, or device is, so you can provide real-time location and tracking updates to your customers.
Upload and organize unlimited images or videos, so drivers can easily access them on the go—whether it’s training, instructions, or news. Keep track of who has viewed what, so that you can spot gaps in training and follow up when necessary.
gives the drivers the ability to move pick-up/delivery location pins based on satellite imagery — pin moves are used in crowd-sourcing more accurate location data from your drivers (and any driver from any fleet who uses Eleos)
Eleos is a complete in-cab solution, but it works on any smartphone too. Drivers can use it wherever and whenever they want, without being tied to the tablet in their truck. This gives them freedom to use downtime efficiently, and spend less time in their cab when they aren’t driving. They love this.
Upload news to your Eleos system and share it with drivers through the app. You can send out simple text and image articles, and high-quality videos.
Avoid common mistakes and ensure your drivers have the information they need, by adding specific details or attachments to particular loads. Automatically include PDFs, images, and even videos on certain loads, to give drivers everything they need to do the job right.
Import routes into drivers’ trip planners and navigation from a third-party routing engine. You can enable this on a per-load basis, and when enabled, Eleos will request all routes and reroutes for that load from the server of your choice. Nothing else changes for the driver. He still has access to location updates, trip policies, difficult maneuver warnings, and every other Eleos feature. Your back office also can still see his route in their Trip Planner Studio.
Create unlimited points of interest datasets, in addition to our built-in ones, so drivers can search for truck stops, rest areas, weigh stations and more.
Not only will Eleos alert a driver to a difficult maneuver on the route he has selected, but it will also show him a Google Street View of the section of road that may cause him trouble. He can assess how it looks, and either ignore the warning, or route around. If he selects to route around, the system will generate a new route which avoids that particular section of road.
Reduce inefficiency, frustration, and data entry errors by pre-filling forms. There is no need for drivers to manually enter form data already stored in your backend. Eleos can pre-fill that information programmatically from your TMS, or any other integrated system, so drivers can focus on entering just the details that you don’t already have.
Easily collect information or ensure jobs get done by creating programmatically-assignable tasks with completion notifications. You can segment these down to any, all, or even just one driver. This makes previously painful back office admin incredibly easy—e.g., getting data on updated CDL/licenses, insurance paperwork, and the like.
Eleos gives your drivers a leg up in the final mile by showing them a satellite view of the actual buildings on the ground.
Drivers can easily scroll through their entire document history to quickly find and view previously-scanned files.
Predefine what happens if a driver performs workflow actions in his app while he has no signal. With offline operation, drivers simply keep going with business as usual. They don’t notice any interruptions or warnings, and often aren’t even aware that they have lost connectivity. Their actions are simply synced to your server once they are back online.
Get information to drivers instantly without them having to read while driving. Messages are read aloud if they arrive during navigation, or while the in-motion lock screen is active.
The back office counterpart to the driver’s Trip Planner. Back office staff can easily plan routes for multiple drivers, seeing the routes as those drivers would or will see them. Plus they can review any current trips in progress, and see updates to these routes in real time.
Specify mileage and toll limits to allow dynamic routing based on your own business numbers. With this patent-pending feature, you can know exactly when a driver is dynamically rerouted or makes changes to his original trip plan, and what the impact will be in dollars and cents.
Generate a safe route for each and every size, shape, or type of truck you have. Specify the truck’s critical attributes—e.g., weight, height, hazmat—and the navigation system will include these in its calculation of a safe route.
Drivers and dispatch can chat in real time using a modern interface. Forms and macros are built in, so drivers can send entire batches of information about completed workflow steps with the tap of a button, instead of having to type everything out in multiple messages. No more laborious manual data entry.
Avoid drivers getting caught short when their hours of service run out. The Trip Planner and navigation display when and where on the map a driver’s HOS will expire. This enables them to plan ahead.
Just like Google Maps or Waze, Eleos shows colored indicators for traffic flow in the trip planner. This allows drivers to better anticipate how the route will work, based on either live traffic, or historical traffic data.
Use a simple point-and-click interface to set up unlimited custom workflows that match any conceivable business scenario. Painlessly edit them later if necessary. Workflows can be tailored based on customer, location, cargo type etc.
No need for third-party navigation apps that aren’t designed with truck-safe routes in mind. Eleos tells drivers exactly where to go without any dodgy routes.
