92 DAT iQ Reviews
Easy to navigate, the most accurate and available loads no matter where I was traveling. It really was the only loadboard worth paying for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Most of the loads posted on DAT are posted multiple times (as much as 30 times for the same load), this makes it very time consuming and annoying to say the least.
DAT claims to be helping to prevent fraud but fraud continues to run rampant with many load posters stating ‘email only’ and posting gmail addresses that have nothing to do with the original brokers email address. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability to go back up to 12 months on any lane and have the Rateview comparisons for those specific times makes it possible to actually compare company performance to the market. The filters for lane consistency help me a lot in identifying long term and short-term lane issues along with RFP strengths and weaknesses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I would love to see a more detailed breakdown on order level. Currently I only see data for an individual lane but there is no breakdown of the orders. For example, if I have a lane that is 15% above Rateview with 10 loads, it is currently difficult to ascertain that if we are generally buying more expensive on all loads or was there a single load that is skewing the whole lane negatively. Furthermore, I would also like a feature to be able to download the past performance for more than 12 months so that I can compare if we have improved or worsened in selected markets.

I truly love and enjoy the way DAT iQ is set up. It caters to my needs when I need to know what the current market trends are showing. Also, it does a lot of analytical background work that can really come in handy and can give you the overall perspective of how the company is performing overall.

I currently don't dislike anything about DAT iQ. I use it much more than I use rateview. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Real time market rates. Its great to see not only a map of what you're looking for, but to see how tight the market is alongside it super helpful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only thing we'd like to do is be able to use our own info/data. We're able to see basic market info, but it would be nice to add our own lane success to better determine pricing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Quick availability of rates and the ability to put available loads out into the market rapidly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Rates are often misleading and do not represent an accurate depiction of the rates carriers are seeking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the idea that all of the information is in one location. You are given multiple types of data to help you make an educated decision about pricing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The downside is the accuracy of the data. Most times what we are covering the freight for does not reflect what DAT iQ shows, so it does make it challenging to provide accurate pricing to our customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
They are one of the few Freight Tech companies that understand the broker's perspective. They seem to actually implement fixes/updates based on feedback and recommendations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Many of their products hide behind expensive paywalls and there is not enough commentary about the definitions of the terminology used in their tools - hard to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that my contribution data helps to inform my view of the market in the benchmark tool. The dashboard, which summarizes load posting and truck postings also helps me to predict macro changes in the market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
