Google Maps API and why it is good for business

Rating: 7 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Google Maps API to obtain direct mileage for better rates and alternate routes for drivers. Business problems I encounter are related to truck routes VS. auto routes. My drivers will often search and take alternate routes to avoid tolls and other high traffic areas they may encounter. I do not solely rely on Google Maps but rather use it as an alternate map to obtain more information along their route.

Pros

Point to Point mileage
actual routes and best use route planning
Traffic and other incident reporting real time

Cons

Best case truck route planning
zip to zip mileage accuracy
Toll accuracy and bridge management

Likelihood to Recommend

We have rating software from a different map provider. I have found discrepancies in their miles and used Google Maps to rectify and accurately adjust my rate. This also helps me plan my driver's time to avoid delays and allow accurate arrival time reporting to my customer and the delivery facility.
