The immediacy of data & the sheer volume of data availability across business segments is great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SONAR?

I don't always know where or how to find what I'm looking for and it is not easy to display it in a manner that I want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"SONAR is user-friendly and one of my favorite daily tools."
4.5/5
What do you like best about SONAR?

I love that SONAR shows more recent rates, allowing me to see trends as they begin and not after they have already happened. Other competitors products can be delayed as much as a month in showing trends. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SONAR?

My only requests for the team at SONAR to consider are the following: Improve the logic of the suggestion when searching for a location to be more forgiving in the case of typos and misspellings, as well as greater insight into how fuel is being calculated by the shippers and carriers in a market or lane.

"Overall great experience with Sonar"
4.5/5
What do you like best about SONAR?

I like most of the features, OTVI and OTRI are chart we use the most and heat map. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SONAR?

For a small trucking company like us a little too pricy. I wouldn't say I like the fact that you no longer take data from DAT which is the largest in USA. Truckstop instead... Some charts like Driver Revenue per week and news widget are no longer available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good stuff, could be better"
3.5/5
What do you like best about SONAR?

All of the editable indices. Being able to see charts from multiple views. So many options of things to look at. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SONAR?

Not all indices are available, some codes aren't up to date, don't show current, or only for one period of time from lack of reporting. Creating a dashboard doesn't always allow for wanted content in that regard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SONAR?

Now that contracted rates are available, we are seeing that some of the mileage bands that are accounted for when looking at rates are very large. This seems to inflate the rates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
