## Cardata Reviews
  ### 1. Cardata:While decent tracking software...it has its issues!  

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nina M. | WLA Account manager, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 15, 2024

**What do you like best about Cardata?**

Very good with tracking--when it is on. That is not always the case.

**What do you dislike about Cardata?**

Lots of improvements need to be made when a cell is at low power. Cardata keeps turning off and it is unclear whether it is still tracking mileage. I feel as though I have lost out on some reimbursement due to this issue. My hope is in the future that this software will take less power to run. It still takes a crazy amount.

**What problems is Cardata solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It solves the issue of tracking mileage, especially when I'm going on many small trips.

  ### 2. My user experience with Car Data - with over 25hours on the road per week for the last 3 years

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Maryam G. | Business Project Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 21, 2025

**What do you like best about Cardata?**

Having an automated app in the background makes life a lot easier.
when it works in the background, its seamless and easy.

**What do you dislike about Cardata?**

*Having an app in the background is not perfect; when for some reason or another it drops off and is logged out & I wouldnt kow until I checked. with over 25hours on the road as you can imagine, thats not an easy task. 
*adding manual trips is difficult &time consuming. I wished you could add addresses rather than location names. 
* i would love a report per month of the total mileage, cost - as of now i check that for my own knowledge. but i would love that included in the automated monthly close-off emails.
* could there be an opportunity to integrate with any other apps.. such as alert of where the car is parked..(always in different parking lots), really any features for gas finding, etc

**What problems is Cardata solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Mileage tracking and expense payout

  ### 3. Reliable app backed by excellent customer service

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Accounting | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 31, 2024

**What do you like best about Cardata?**

I really love the ease of tracking mileage, labeling your trips, the previous month payouts for easy viewing, the simplicity of documentation uploads, and the quick, quality, and responsive customer service!

**What do you dislike about Cardata?**

The downside is needing to have location services on at all times, and I do not like how they do not give you an accumulated mileage as the month progresses.

**What problems is Cardata solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The ability to keep track of my mileage and expect what my monthly reimbursement will be.

  ### 4. Some bugs worked out; now if only their payments matched real life expenses

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Automotive | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 26, 2024

**What do you like best about Cardata?**

They pay monthly on time. The app has improved accuracy significantly in the past year.

**What do you dislike about Cardata?**

Their fixed rate does not match what it takes to own and insure a vehicle in my area. My company wants a five year or newer midsize sedan to be "in compliance" With the retail costs, insurance at the required levels they require (which is significantly higher than the state minimum required coverages) and the increased costs of maintennance and repairs; I lose money every month I drive with their software.

Additionally, their mileage rate is not fair based on fuel prices

**What problems is Cardata solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cardata has implemented solutions to flawed tracking reported previously. I still have to check and babysit it 2-3x per week but have needed to make significantly less manual adjustments than I did one yr ago.

**Official Response from Madeleine  Beelen:**

  ### 5. Not the best with lots of room for improvement

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Farming | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 03, 2025

**What do you like best about Cardata?**

If it was reliable I’d have a few reasons but right now I’m forced to use it because of my company. It doesn’t always run, it sometimes stops tracking, and randomly logs you out so you have to enter credentials to get back in.

**What do you dislike about Cardata?**

Everything - the user experience for confirming mileage looks like an embedded google sheets document. A recent example of why I don’t like the app: I confirmed the app was tracking me at the beginning of my day (which you have to do because it isn’t reliable). The first part of my trip was tracked successfully but the second leg of 150+ miles, was not at all. So now I get to go back and guesstimate on my mileage and reimbursement. This isn’t the first time this has happened. The app has also stopped tracking in heavy congestion and doesn’t always start back up after through the congestion…how many miles have I lost in these situations? Dunno. For several months I ended up subscribed to another mileage tracking app just to get a second opinion on my monthly miles - Cardata never matched the other apps miles and was always much less. This should not be an exhausting effort added to the daily to do list for traveling sales reps. Set it and forget it because it is reliable should be the goal. Epic fail.

**What problems is Cardata solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It really isn’t solving any problems…causing more headaches. An app like this should be calculating every mile accurately so I can be reimbursed for my out of pocket expenses incurred for business travel.

**Official Response from Katie Theriault:**

> We're sorry to hear that your experience with Cardata hasn’t met your expectations. Our team is committed to providing the best possible service, and we'd love the opportunity to make things right.

**Official Response from Madeleine  Beelen:**

> Hi there, we're sorry to hear about this issue! Please contact us at support@cardata.co, we would be happy to help. Hope to hear from you soon.

  ### 8. It is easy to use. Doesn't track all stops and addresses visited.

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Internet | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 22, 2025

**What do you like best about Cardata?**

It is easy to use and update. Simple to classify trips as business, personal or delete.

**What do you dislike about Cardata?**

Doesn't track all stops and addresses visited. Therefore not tracking correctly for full mileage reimbursement.

**What problems is Cardata solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helps my company track my mileage when I am making business visits to sell their products and me to be reimbursed for gas mileage.

**Official Response from Madeleine  Beelen:**

  ### 9. Easy mileage tracking

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mitchell A. | Large store account exeuctive, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 25, 2024

**What do you like best about Cardata?**

At first I had issues but it seems like we are good now.  All I have to do is drive and remember to verify my mileage.

**What do you dislike about Cardata?**

Just verifying mileage daily to make sure that no mileage was missed.  If you set your odometer, there is some small differences in what is tracked.

**What problems is Cardata solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Mileage tracking program

  ### 10. Still having issues with the app not starting within the time frame set

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Food & Beverages | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 05, 2024

**What do you like best about Cardata?**

Mileage correction has been much better.

**What do you dislike about Cardata?**

Not recording mileage within the time frame set up to record.

**What problems is Cardata solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Mileage tracking has improved significantly in the last 6 months. It's still not friendly when trying to add missed mileage.

**Official Response from Madeleine  Beelen:**

> Hi there, we're sorry to hear about this issue! Please contact us at support@cardata.co, we would be happy to help. Hope to hear from you soon.

It tracks my miles for me. There is nothing additional I have to do.

It's not always easy to navigate through app and I have to check every day that my miles are being captured. It used to be a lot worse, but has improved a lot last few months.

It tracks my miles so I can be reimbursed

  ### 12. Cardata Mileage Capture App
