HASTUS vs Moovit

HASTUS is a configurable operations suite for public transport authorities and operators, covering bus, metro, tram and passenger rail. Its modules span planning, scheduling, operations, on-demand transport, customer information and integrations, with algorithms built to account for each client’s business rules. Planning tools support network redesign and analysis of crowding, coverage, accessibility, ridership and equity. Scheduling tools produce vehicle, rolling-stock and crew schedules; passenger rail functions also handle track access and station staff. HASTUS-OnDemand supports automated scheduling, continuous resource optimization, multimodal trips and management of multiple providers. HASTUS Connect exchanges data with AVL, APC, ticketing and other systems and is included with each installation at no extra charge. Network synchronization can import GTFS schedules to form connections with trains or other agencies’ bus routes. Historical operating data can feed KPI reports and dashboards. SelfBooking+ is available for iOS and Android, while SelfBooking Web supports customer and agent trip management. Pricing is on request.
