Scheduling buses can be a difficult, time consuming task,

sheets and databases, or BIG dollar programs that are too
complex and difficult to use and support. Now, Lynx™
Transportation Software brings together the features
you want and need with a price you can afford! Lynx Transportation
Software will help you stay on task and on schedule. Lynx™
Transportation Software streamlines your work load scheduling
making it possible maintain a schedule for entire fleets you
can actually control.

| Solutions with an impact |
Feature |
What it
means to you |
| Simple
to use |
Let’s
face it, if software is too complicated, your employees
won’t use it. Lynx™ was
designed for people who don’t have a degree
in computer science. Ease of use is Lynx's™ number one value! |
| Advanced
routing features |
Select,
then drag and drop students from a list into a route
or have Lynx™ automatically assign students to a route. Lynx™ optimizes bus stops, saving fuel
and time, as well as minimizing the rider’s exposure
to dangerous exhaust fumes. |
| Accurate
mapping |
Lynx™ uses 4 different map data vendors for
accurate and up to date routing. In addition, it
allows you to edit and update your own maps. We can
even print large wall maps for your organization! |
| Generates
information critical to efficient and effective pupil
transportation |
Today’s
transportation organizations are overwhelmed by regulations,
requirements and budget constraints. At Lynx™, we know this. Our software provides all of the necessary
reporting to run your operation efficiently. From fleet maintenance to special needs bus riders, Lynx™ has the reports you need to breathe easy. |
| Easy
access to important information |
We
designed Lynx™ to be easy to use, but also rich in the types of
information your organization needs. A standard interface
gives you FAST and EASY access to any
data within Lynx™. In addition, track information associated with special needs, handicap, early childhood and elderly passengers. |
| Advanced
Query Manager |
Create
new ways of viewing and editing data.
Lynx™ now
features an Advanced Query Manager, i.e. a simple
“drag and drop” way to build your own
reports from ANY of the data stored within
Lynx™. In addition, use the Advanced
Query Manager to edit subsets of data, e.g. show/edit
only students living on "East Street" and attend
4th grade at Parkland Elementary School. |
| Live
online technical support |
Our
technicians can work with you on your computer(s)
while you watch as we install set-up and/or train you
on Lynx™. |
| Reliable |
Lynx™ uses the same data handling technology
that NASA employs, i.e. your data is safe and secure, regardless of whether you
are using one computer or 1,000 computers to access
Lynx™ data. |
| Internet
accessible |
View/update
Lynx™ from anywhere in the world over the internet. |
|
With just a glance
you can see any route and its scheduled stops. You can easily
identify key stops using color codes and import data from
other programs. It is two clicks to just about any report
you can think of. We’ll help you set up Lynx™
to give your organization the information it needs to run
efficiently, and satisfy requirements, regulations and budgets.

“I don’t know how we functioned before Lynx™! I have used it with much success, and I have found that the mapping data is far superior to the more expensive software products on the market. It is a Windows-based program that it is soooooo easy to use that all my personnel mastered the program in just a few days of working with it. Also, I have replaced three programs (fleet, inventory, and mapping) with one!”
Geary Cooper
Gordon County Schools, GA
"I can't believe how easy it is to create routes, I'm actually having fun using Lynx. My drivers love the route sheets and now they are able to get to know all the students on their routes. It's made a big difference. ... and you don't have to know a lot about computers to use this program. This software is just what I wanted."
Bill Steinhauer
Mount Horeb Schools
"I can honestly say that the route building
and main database setup you have right now is FABULOUS and will,
in my experience, need very little tweaking. The improvements since
you started, until now, have really impressed me and will make a
lot of customers extremely happy, I think!!! Thanks so much to all
of you for your time and hard work and friendship. It's made our
job here a lot more easy!!!"
Mitch Kieffer, Kieffer Bus Service
"Lynx is easy to use and has saved me so
much time. The routing, fuel usage, and maintenance reports are
simple to create. Anyone will find this program a great asset to
their business."
