GovTow vs TowCommand Pro

GovTow is a cloud-based tow management and tracking solution for government agencies and other stakeholders. Its dispatch tools can locate nearby drivers with smart logic or assign them by rotation, while selection can also use GPS proximity, required equipment, or defined zones, beats, and districts. Dispatch records photos, videos, signatures, and damage, and route maps can be shared with drivers and other appropriate users. Storage management covers vehicle intake, visual documentation, owner and lien-holder letters, fee calculations and collections, plus release and hold tracking. The auction module handles scheduling, bidder registration, payments, bills of sale, scanning, and Zebra printing. Web portals let agencies, approved towing and storage providers, and the public follow a tow through retrieval or auction. GovTow runs on Android, iOS, and the web, with a driver mobile app and GPS fleet tracking. Pricing is by requested quote.
