"Best marketplace for freight. Needs security updates and directory review overhaul."
4/5
What do you like best about DAT Load Board?

DAT is, and always has been, the dominant marketplace for freight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DAT Load Board?

Being the biggest marketplace makes DAT a target for fraud. Freight thieves and double brokers use it as a tool to commit freight crimes. DAT should strengthen security, such as not allowing agent-based brokerages to permit their agents to bring their own Gmail accounts; monitoring fraudulent IPs. DAT should also monitor their own review services so they would know when an obvious double broker is using their system as a tool to commit fraud. DAT Directory reviews are currently outsourced to a third party that does a poor job moderating reviews. This responsibility should be brought in-house. DAT should allow its users to view load history that is no longer actively posted so that we can go back and investigate if our loads were re-posted by a double broker.
