They already have over 50,000 users in over one hundred countries – and they are only just getting started in the US!!! Craig Walker, CTO and Catherine Walker, Community Manager are heading up the US team.

V-Work App  is dispatch software that runs on i-phone and Android devices. The dispatcher can simply login to the website and he/she can see all of their trucks/ vans real-time location. When they need to redirect the driver to new job this is automatically pushed through to the drivers phone – awesome!!
