## Reviews

### "DAT Review" — 4.0/5

> **Erik** | *23 June 2025* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: DAT load board provides details on the cost of the load which provides more insight for owner operators.
> 
> **Cons**: DAT doesn’t offer details on if brokers are approved for factoring with more than one factoring provider. There insight on freight brokerages and their standings are limited.
> 
> DAT has been one of the best overall best load boards compared to any other platform out today for carriers and freight brokers.

### "DON'T USE KEYPOINT TMS" — 1.0/5

> **Dale** | *3 September 2025* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The efficiency of building loads and being able to save shipping and receiving locations. That is it.
> 
> **Cons**: Not mobile friendly. Nobody has answers. Told the system has capabilities but didn't say it required more hidden fees\! They were quick to send over a contract and told me all of the things the system does, but didn't say more subscriptions were required, per user. Told their system has a loadboard but required another subscription. Went to do that and was told it also cost per month per user just to be able to post directly to the loadboard. This system has NO internal load board. You can only post what is built in loads\! Told rateview is built into the system, it is not. Requires the same subscription as the load board. Guess what? Also requires another additional subscription, per user.
> 
> Terrible. DO NOT SIGN THE CONTRACT. There are much much better TMS systems out there\! EZ Loader, Ascend and many others\! Told weeks ago that everything would be cancelled, still taking money out. Still not refunded. They are an absolute joke. Don't expect help from \[sensitive content hidden\]  or even answers. He only wants your money\!\! Possibly worse than a car salesman\!

### "Owner Op Experience" — 4.0/5

> **Jarvis** | *11 March 2025* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The amount of loads posted as well as ease of finding available loads around me
> 
> **Cons**: The price of service continues to increase as well as brokers being allowed to post the same load multiple times
> 
> Overall good experience, would recommend to any trucker looking to find loads efficiently

### "True review" — 4.0/5

> **Bryant** | *11 March 2025* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use, and maneuver. Love the settings such as weight etc.
> 
> **Cons**: Scammers posting fake loads everyday is really annoying and DAT needs to figure out how to stop it.
> 
> Overall has been a pretty good experience. Definitely like it more than Truckstops load board which I had first and left.

### "DISLOYAL AND UNPROTECTIVE TO CUSTOMERS\!\!\!\!\!\!\!" — 1.0/5

> **Monekea** | *24 April 2025* | Logistics & Supply Chain | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: For the most part, the load board is easy to navigate.  DAT shows the avialable freight for different vehicle types.
> 
> **Cons**: This company DOES NOT value its customers at all.  I had been using the load board since 2021.  However, I was locked out of my account because my husband and I shared the username and password to the account.  We live in the same house, share the same access to the the internet and work for the company in which we own.  We were told we could not share profiles so we apologized and told them we didn't know we couldn't share login credentials.  A week later someone attempted to login my account in Singapore, Dallas and Miami.  I informed DAT representatives  that it wasn't me and they told me to change my password, which I happily did.  After complying with the password change, I was still blocked.  I called DAT numerous times to try to get the issue resolved only to get the run around.  I was told I was blocked because of insurance compliance which was untrue.  I sent COIs showing that my insurance was active.  After several days and plenty lies from DAT representatives, \[sensitive content hidden\] in particular, I was told I would be blocked because 144 VPNs were detected on my account. To any smart human, this yells FRAUD.....just not to DAT.  Instead, I was told it was my fault that my account had been compromised.  This is absolutely ridiculous. As a paying customer for years, I never complained when the load board was having technical issues which prevented paying customers to have access to load board to see available freight.  Instead, I was patient and understanding.  I'm just not sure why I didn't receive the same grace from DAT.
> 
> With the way I was treated the last two weeks in mind, my experience was TERRIBLE\!\!\!\!\!\! The last two weeks make the first year totally not worth it.
