DAT Freight and AnalyticsReviews of dat.com

It’s not saving my search therefore I have to re type all the time. It used to save

I've come to realization that "general market rate" that everyone is referring to is created on DAT mainframe using a blunt way of data interpretation when it comes to TL and LTL shipments. I have requested a deeper look into an issue and asked to be kept in the loop of this investigation. In other words, data collected from TMS does NOT reflect the difference between TL shipment requests and LTL partial loads. This failure in data interpretation affects so called "market per mile rate" in certain regions to the point of making it difficult and not cost efficient to move the freight. This affects road safety and general well being of truck drivers. I'd really like that addressed and fixed on your end. Thank you.

Most of the loads posted on DAT are posted multiple times (as much as 30 times for the same load), this makes it very time consuming and annoying to say the least. DAT claims to be helping to prevent fraud but fraud continues to run rampant with many load posters stating ‘email only’ and posting gmail addresses that have nothing to do with the original brokers email address. With all the brokers offering free load boards now, it’s time consuming to go through them all but at least they’re not riddled with fraudulent load postings, which is probably better than overpaying for a name brand load board that claims to have 100’s of 1000’s of loads per day (deduct all the multiple postings and it’s really not that many).

Absolutely horrible. DAT has always been a product intended for North Americans, yet you allow people for other countries to have access to DAT servers. REALLY?!!?!? Please tell me you believe that's good for our country.. Your profit margins are more important than how it's actually affecting truckers and their rates. Not acceptable at all whatsoever!!
