What is SmartBus?

SmartBus is a user-friendly school bus management software that allows all users from different endpoints to monitor school bus tracks, student attendance, and safety by receiving real-time alerts. It offers separate monitoring apps for parents, managers, schools, and drivers. It’s an ideal app for all schools and bus service providers that want to provide optimum tracking and safety tools to parents and kids. SmartBus simplifies bus management by providing GPS tracking tools, attendance monitoring, safety metrics, trip management, and advanced scheduling with real-time alerts and instant notifications. With its features that allow users to track real-time bus location, parents can easily save time and effort to safely ensure their kids get to school. SmartBus offers advanced tools that enable managers, parents, and schools to track driver performance, student attendance, and trip safety. Drivers are provided with a separate app that can receive real-time messages and alerts from parents if students won’t be attending school on a given day. Through such a nifty tool, drivers get to save significant time and energy as students that won’t be attending classes need not be included in a day’s route as drivers are already conveniently duly notified.
