Testimonials
![Horizons West](/images/images/Horizons-West-logo.png)
Our staff adjusted quickly to the program, and the speed in which we are now able to enter bookings, schedule jobs and obtain information & reports quickly is a credit to your knowledge and understanding of our very unique industry.
![LVBL](/images/images/LVBL-2-logo.png)
Currently CMS is our central hub for most things that we do here, to make sure we have buses on time and to continue to grow the business.
![Crown](/images/images/Crown-Coaches-Logo.png)
CMS is sophisticated software that not only saves the users time but also is a business cost saving tool. We would not be where we are today with CMS.
![Bayside](/images/images/Bayside-Coaches-logo.jpg)
After exploring the market we settled on Evident Solutions CMS program for our business for a number of reasons - primarily that it was built for a charter bus company and has been consistently developed and upgraded over 20 years.
![Nuline](/images/images/Nuline-Charter-2-logo.jpg)
We were using a computer booking system for our company but found that it had its limitations and was developed overseas and primarily for a route service operation.
![Go West](/images/images/Go-West-Tours-logo.png)
The amount of information and reports we can access from our main office really make overall control of our other depots very easy indeed.

Whenever we have required something extra from the system, the Evident Solutions team has been able to tailor specific reports to meet our needs and their after sales support cannot be faulted.
