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." **Nait M. (Fleet Owner)** "Being a courier this app is great value. Although a few points….. doing 100+ stops a day, it would be great if pressing the done button had a bit of a delay. Sometime accidently press it twice without noticing and then find out i missed a few stops at the end of the day and have to go back." **Victor A.
