It is very good application. It is accurate about the trip timings which amazes me. The only thing I wish they improve us the location-when I hit DONE one stop it takes me to next stop automatically. However, when Zeo tells Google maps about the next stop, it does NOT communicate the EXACT address. …

The perfect routing app for me! I praise the developers and all those involved for keeping this app free at 15 deliveries. I usually have about 12 deliveries daily. I am new to the delivery business and this app makes things so simple that I may take on more work and gladly pay the yearly fee for the 500 deliveries tier. I think of this app as my coplilot, truly a joy to use daily. 6 stars!!!

Installed and used this app while performing disaster assessment for a large national non profit asstance agency during the New Jersey hurricane Ida disaster. The job required that I drive to various addresses all over the state on a daily basis. The app allowed me to get to more destinations while minimizing driving time, hence speeding assistance to the clients.
