Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Accurate tracking of school buses. Instant notifications when the bus was near the stop. Pickup and Drop-off notifications that are precise.

Cons

  • I couldn't find any flaw in the application. It does what it claims to do. It tracks school buses and students efficiently.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The ease of use. Ability to create route options without tearing down other routes. Quick response when needing help or have questions. Joe & Anna willing to help set things up and then walking you through what was done and how it was done. Always making improvements.
  • Excellent customer service. Software is very user friendly and the lynx staff is always available to help and train.
  • Very dependable and reliable routing software program. Joe and Anna are amazing to work with. If I have a question they respond right away. Their customer services is amazing. Lynx is easy to use and Joe and Anna walk you through all set-up needs, DPI student reporting and route consolidations. Lynx is located in Wisconsin, so they are familiar with all types of weather conditions and the terrain.
  • Lynx provides the best tech support I have ever utilized! In over 25 years as a school district CIO, Technology Director, Technology Coordinator, and Director of Transportation, I have never encountered such expert, timely, and willing tech support. In my transportation position, I am often up working very early in the morning prior to drivers arriving. In my early days utilizing the software suite, I'd send a quick email and invariably my phone would ring with an expert on the other end of the phone! A quick fix or explanation and I was on my way to getting my completed! At one point, we transition from being a locally hosted service to moving to the cloud. The transition was seamless! At another point, I wanted to automate student information and routing information to transfer to and from Infinite Campus to Lynx and back again. Lynx tech support worked directly with Infinite Campus and we had this automation completed in less than a week!
  • Great customer service. Software is user friendly. DPI reports are a breeze with the help of Joe and Anna.

Cons

  • The only Con is that the software does not come with School Bus Drivers. If it came with 2 or 3 drivers this would be the best software routing system in the world. In all seriousness, I have not found one Con yet, we might only be in the honeymoon phase, but I don't see it going down, I only see the potential that we have been shown so far.
  • The software is missing a way to record attendance directly from drivers to lynx other than the student ID cards. From my understanding this is being added.
  • Not having the parents app set-up. We utilize another GPS system to have the parents app and the GPS monitoring of the buses. Joe has been amazing to work with having the two systems talk with each other.
  • There have been so many improvements over the years, I simply cannot think of one thing I do not like.
  • I have been using the software for 11 years and have yet to see a negative side of it.
