“Centralized load tracking”
Pros
Keeping up with loads and shipment details during the day is much more manageable with PCS. Having everything in one place helps me stay organized and cuts down on the time I'd normally spend jumping between different sources to check for updates.
Cons
A few areas of the system could be more accessible. Some screens require extra clicks before I can reach the information I need so simplifying the navigation would make every day work more efficient.
