# Cota

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/111048/cota

> Cota is a cloud-based dispatch management system designed specifically for small trucking companies, most users have between 1 and 10 trucks. The simple, easy to use design includes a drag-and-drop interface, no unnecessary fields, and minimal scrolling. A unique feature of the system is the ability to seamlessly integrate with top quick pay providers to get paid fast on invoices with no long term contracts.


The dispatch side of the system works on any device, all that is required is an internet browser and internet connection. The driver side interactions take place on mobile devices, so there are intuitive driver apps for both Apple and Android phones. Even with a few trucks, a dispatch management system can save tons of time at billing by keeping all load documents one click away. Also tracking detention time is a breeze, as Cota Driver apps timestamp the indicated arrival and departure times at shippers, which instantly show up on the trip log.


Though free of charge, the Cota system is built on the bleeding edge of technology, plus advanced enough to handle trailer drops, multiple shipments dispatched on a trailer simultaneously, user permission levels, document storage, and different driver types.
