Used it for about six months. I'm an owner-operator in the Midwest with 12 years on the road and the price is what keeps me booking - last run paid $1.75/mi all-in and after fuel I still walked away with a real paycheck, so for me it was worth the tiny extra time to check loads. Kinda clunky sometimes but that rate made me keep comin back, def saved me money.
Bottom line: CoyoteGO just isn't as dependable as the platform I used before - more ghosted loads and last-minute rate cuts. I had two booked loads re-priced after acceptance and one pickup disappear because paperwork never uploaded, which burned deadhead miles and cost me a Saturday run. With three trucks on the road I don't have time for extra phone calls, so I ended up going back to the other app that actually holds its offers.
Batch booking is a lifesaver - lets me grab a handful of runs in seconds during a hectic dispatch window. That said, twice this month it either double-accepted or froze mid-booking and forced me to re-do confirmations and cancel contracts; after ten years dispatching and running 15 trucks across the Southwest I'm torn - love the speed, hate the headaches when it trips up.
Last Tuesday one of our newer drivers arrived early and couldn't find lane-specific loads, so I enrolled him in CoyoteGO while he waited. The account verification and insurance upload cleared inside an hour, which got him back on the road that afternoon - that quick turnaround is what impressed me most. Managing a 200-truck operation in the Southwest, I appreciate how fast onboarding can be; I rate it 4/5 because a couple of the advanced settings felt clunky.
