Tarot Routing and Circuit for Teams both provide route optimisation solutions with excellent user experiences, but they are tailored to different market segments and business needs.
Tarot Routing is designed for medium to large businesses and enterprises with complex logistical requirements. It offers advanced features such as:
-
handling returns,
-
barcode scanning,
-
multi-depot management,
-
sophisticated optimisation algorithms that accommodate various constraints like time windows, vehicle capacities, and driver shifts.
This makes Tarot Routing particularly suitable for businesses requiring a high level of customisation and scalability in their delivery operations.
Therefore, businesses with simpler delivery requirements and a focus on driver empowerment may find Circuit for Teams more appropriate.
Circuit adopts a driver-first approach, focusing on ease of use. It is especially well-suited for small businesses where drivers play a central role and there is a need for quick onboarding without extensive training. Circuit’s route optimisation does not consider business constraints required for larger companies, and it lacks advanced functionalities like barcode scanning and complex logistics handling.
