Pros: Finding TATEMS software was a God send. We tried making our own, hiring it out and nothing worked like we wanted. TATEMS had it all. Tracking maintenance on our equipment, reminders, the dreaded FILTER's LIST! Everything. It is easy to use, easy to understand. With information at our fingertips, keeping up to date with this aspect of our business had made a huge difference. Thank you TATEMS, you were just what we needed.

Cons: Column size on the screens need to be adjusted. I can't see the year (important part) and other fields I do not need, are more prominently displayed. Would like the ability to customize the field screen layout OR have you make it so the year shows!! Thanks!!

Other comments: Being able to get in touch with technical support is huge.

Pros: As a small business owner, knowing where my money goes is important. The Tatems platform is inexpensive, simple and made for the trucking business. BIT seems to like the reports available. The reports allow me to make better maint/repair, roi, and capitol descisions. As I get older it's nice to have the software remind me when certain tasks need attending to. As with any cms platform, the better the data that goes in, the better the output. With hours and miles as measurement bases, reports may be compared, problem areas seem to stand out; allowing problems to be seen, repaired quickly and saving money. Last but far from least,,, excellent customer service

Cons:

a “chart/graph” series of reports where the charts are of a fixed type and the operator may plug in the knowns from the reports creating a “custom” report or have the ability to trend.

What can i say, you have a good basic platform.

Other comments:

Having spent over thirty years in industrial maintenance… Using platforms from Datastream to SAP; if you expect to make a profit, you must maintain the equipment; or, you must have a Return On your Investment. To make a “good” profit, you must take advantage of every tool you can to keep your equipment running efficiently and reliable.

I see costs per mile that are four places past the decimal (XX.XXXX) if larger companies do this why shouldn't i?

With fuel cutting into profit margins, it would be foolish to not avail yourself of this platform, if you use it, it will help you save money let alone help keep agencies that like records happy.

If you sell or trade a truck, having a copy of the mtc. records available could add value.

Before TATEMS we tried to maintain all of our vehicle records on in-house spreadsheets. TATEMS has simplified everything and has saved us time and money!!

Tatems is an extremely “user friendly” program that allows us to put our entire fleet (truck/trailer and other equipment) in the program. We can enter all maintenance, repairs, and parts, used on each specific piece of equipment. It also allows for the input of mileage, and vehicle info. (vin, license, etc.,).The program sorts and has each equipment piece in its own spot. It also alerts when a piece of equipment needs servicing/maintenance. It has made our equipment information so organized.

Tatems, has been a huge help with tracking all of California's numerous requirements with Commercial trucks. With a fleet over 200 that changes daily, Tatems has helped track inspections, tests, etc on a daily basis, letting you have the option of how and when to be notified of upcoming dates. Software was easy to install and the support has been over the top, I would recommend to anyone who has the task of keeping up with Dot requirements. Our last BIT inspection was a breeze and our inspector loved the system, in fact next time I will just be able to boot the program and let him glance over the records, he was pleased with not having to shuffle through all the paperwork.
