"Deep yet easy to use Route Management and Optimization Software"
What do you like best about Locus?

We evaluated over 20 platforms for our 50+ vehicle fleet. We chose Locus based on:

Competitive pricing

Intuitive User Interface

Deep design supporting complex user requirements

Newer company which means less legacy issues and faster development

In hindsight, these all turned out to be accurate. Our biggest concern originally was support, as they are not a US based company. However, this has been a pleasant surprise. We meet regularly and they are very responsive. As will any company, they are obviously not perfect, but they do react to issues and listen to feedback which is all you can ask. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Locus?

We'd love a bit more documentation. Locus us a deep platform with a ton of functionality and options. However, it's sometimes hard to know what different settings do and how certain features work. They answer very quickly when a question arises, but sometimes it's good just to have to not always ask. Along these same lines, they add new functionality quite often (which is awesome) but sometimes we only know because we asked how to solve a problem. A bit more communication on new features would be great. But overall, this is a good problem to have vs. never getting new functionality, so we can live with it.

"Auto Sorting in the Last Mile: Enhancing Speed, Accuracy, and Scalability"
What do you like best about Locus?

I like most about auto sorting in last-mile operations is how it reduces manual errors and accelerates the parcel flow, leading to faster deliveries and better customer satisfaction. It brings consistency to operations, improves resource utilization, and supports better scalability during high-demand periods—especially crucial in e-commerce-driven markets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Locus?

As there is no issue in the software but sometime some of the shipments false in wrong routes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Locus?

Nothing as such, But sometimes there is a lack of clear communication around timelines. It would help to have a defined ETA for tasks or deliverables, especially when dependencies are involved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good!!"
What do you like best about Locus?

What I like best about Locus is probably the support and how responsive the team is. Whenever we have an issue or a request, someone always gets back quickly and tries to help. Also, the platform itself is quite user-friendly, and it keeps improving over time, which shows they really listen to feedback. Overall, it feels like Locus is more of a partner than just a service provider. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Locus?

To be honest, there’s not much to complain about, but if I had to point something out, maybe sometimes the system updates or changes happen a bit suddenly, so it takes a bit of time for our team to get used to them. Also, once in a while, the response time for support can be a little slower during peak periods. But overall, it’s been a good experience and those issues aren’t deal-breakers.

"Planner"
What do you like best about Locus?

What I like best about Locus is how it balances automation and flexibility. The route optimization engine significantly reduces manual planning effort, while still allowing for real-world adjustments. On top of that, the real-time tracking and visibility into driver performance help improve both efficiency and accountability across the delivery process Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Locus?

Locus works well for structured planning, but in fast-changing situations, it could be more flexible. Sometimes it takes a few extra steps to make manual adjustments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A helpful tool for your fleet and route optimization"
What do you like best about Locus?

Locus Dispatcher really helps to optimize the fleet and consequently the operational cost when the market is becoming more dynamic and highly demanding in terms of service level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Locus?

There are cases where orders are left unallocated although there seems to be very few breaches and vehicle utilization is not yet maximize.

Though the clustering is working really well, sequencing of orders is still something that can be further enhanced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
