Margie Kovacek's review of Ascent
Yesterday an urgent ventilator shipment routed through Detroit showed "delivered" in Ascent's mobile app while our driver was still waiting at the receiving dock. The app's status sync lag and opaque error messages prevented us from rerouting or confirming receipt quickly; in-app updates failed repeatedly and critical edit functions are buried behind counterintuitive menus. I'm admin-staff supporting a 250-truck fleet in the Southwest, and this glitch caused a four-hour delay, a contractual penalty, and unnecessary driver overtime - unacceptable for time-critical freight.
