## Reviews

### "The heart of our operation" — 5.0/5

> **Joe** | *30 October 2018* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ability to create payroll reports and export invoices all based on the original load information.&#10;The ability to search a load number based on the BOL, VRID, or whatever number was entered at the loads origination.&#10;The ability to customize the columns while viewing loads.&#10;The ability to send invoices with POD's and Confirmation Sheets attached
> 
> **Cons**: The invoices imported to QB do not contain the description data from the invoice in Ascend. Other than that, the software seems to be bulletproof.
> 
> Ascend has given me the confidence to grow my business and not get lost creating invoices, payroll and organizing drivers.

### "Really Seems to Meet All Our Business Needs" — 5.0/5

> **Jennifer** | *24 June 2024* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: \[sensitive content hidden\] was very helpful with answering questions and also informing me of the daily training available.
> 
> **Cons**: So far seems that it will meet all our needs, have only had it a few days so too soon to tell.

### "Ok for dispatch, terrible for billing" — 3.0/5

> **Nichole** | *6 October 2022* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Great for dispatching, reports and user interface.
> 
> **Cons**: Terrible for billing requiring manual backing out for minor issues, slow loading screens.

### "Fantastic Support and a Great Product" — 5.0/5

> **Bruce** | *24 April 2024* | Logistics & Supply Chain | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ascend makes it easy to get a view of all of the loads and their status, and it is very customizable for each user.  The integration with MCP, Truckstop, DAT, and Triumph really streamlines things and helps you manage your time.  Also, if you do have an issue (usually you made a mistake), the support team is very responsive and friendly.
> 
> **Cons**: This is small, but I wish there was a quick-button to go from the load board to the accounting module in a load.  Also, I wish I could import approved customers from Triumph to Ascend like we do carriers from MCP.
> 
> It's been great so far, and I am sure that I will discover more things that I love as time goes on.

>
