## Reviews

### "First Year Experiencing Lynx" — 5.0/5

> **CAROLINE** | *24 June 2024* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: How easy it is to access and use and the support that is provided for new users.
> 
> **Cons**: Not knowing how to use all that is available.
> 
> Once I began to learn the properties of the program, I found out how useful and easy Lynx is to use.

### "Exceptional Service" — 5.0/5

> **Paula** | *7 April 2021* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This routing software is extremely easy to use and set up for your specific needs.
> 
> **Cons**: Our county is unique in that we use a lot of fire numbers as addresses. Makes it harder for Lynx to pinpoint the correct address.
> 
> \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] are always extremely helpful with troubleshooting any issues and updating the program to help the routing software be more efficient for our transportation department. We just recently asked for some help in creating new routes and they were extremely fast importing the data and getting the information back to us quickly\!

### "Lynx" — 5.0/5

> **Patrick** | *12 February 2020* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the ease of use and the personal Tech Support.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't understand when searching a particular student and I use the drop down to choose the different categories that can be included, some of  the categories that I would like are not listed as an option, however many others are that I'll likely never use.
> 
> Lynx helps me on a daily basis with keeping my data accurate and current and is a huge time saver because managing the data is usually simple and easy to learn.

-----

### "Lynx Review" — 4.0/5

> **Kevin** | *18 February 2020* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The functionality of the software for the price is very good. It gets the job done that we needed to have done. The different report and search options are very helpful. After you are trained it is relatively easy to use. The customer support is outstanding.
> 
> **Cons**: The data sync is a little clunky. It would be nice if it were cloud based with a better connection to our student information system. The end user interface is not very user friendly or intuitive. When we have questions this generally results in a call to support. However, the support team is always excellent. It is just time consuming to have to call in everytime.
> 
> Overall, Lynx does what we wanted it to do. It is a little more complicated than we expected but it houses the data we needed it to house and we can generate reports out that we needed it generate. It is not a very nice looking, user centric program but it does a lot of heavy lifting.
