This guide is for owners, operations heads and finance teams running their own drivers: distributors, couriers, food and FMCG suppliers, and service companies with vehicles on the road.
Most delivery problems in the Philippines are not about where the truck is. They are about what happened at each stop:
The client says nothing arrived, and the only evidence is the driver’s word.
The cash was collected, but nobody can say when, how much, or through which channel it was remitted.
In basements, provinces and dead zones, the app stops and the record is lost.
Good software in 2027 fixes these four problems first. Tracking comes second.
Use this table in every vendor demo. Ask them to show each point live, not on a slide.
Swipe sideways to see all columns.
| # | Feature | Why it matters | Ask the vendor to show you |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | One-tap trip steps for drivers | The dispatcher sees each step without calling | Arrived at pickup, loaded and departed, arrived at drop-off, delivered |
| 2 | Proof-of-delivery photo stamped with time and GPS | Ends “we never received it” disputes | A delivery photo and the time and place saved with it |
| 3 | Offline mode with automatic sync | “No signal” stops being an excuse | Accept a booking and take photos in airplane mode, then reconnect |
| 4 | COD remittance proof | Every peso collected has a record | Expected amount next to remitted amount, on one screen |
| 5 | Channel and reference number | Finance can match GCash, Maya, bank or cash deposits | Where the reference number is entered and stored |
| 6 | Finance review with “needs correction” | Wrong or blurry proof goes back to the driver, with a reason | Finance rejecting a receipt photo |
| 7 | Maintenance tracking and fault-code alerts | Breakdowns are caught early, not at the roadside | Maintenance schedule per vehicle and alerts from compatible telematics devices |
| 8 | Data export, no lock-in | Your delivery history stays yours | Exporting your data, and what leaving would cost |
If a vendor cannot show points 2, 3 and 4 live, keep looking.
Strong on location and vehicle data. Usually weak on proof of delivery and COD.
Good when you do not own a fleet and book outside drivers per trip. Not built to manage your own drivers and their cash.
Powerful, but often priced in dollars, set up for other markets, and slow to fit local COD and e-wallet habits.
Built around Philippine realities: COD, GCash and Maya, weak signal, and finance teams that need receipts they can match.
Most businesses with their own drivers and COD collections are best served by type 4, connected to telematics hardware where the vehicles need it.
NexLogistics by Nexvision is a delivery operations platform for Philippine businesses that run their own drivers. It covers the full trip and the cash behind it:
List your top three delivery problems (proof, COD, signal, calls, breakdowns).
Book 30-minute demos with three vendors and use the checklist above.
Ask each one to run a real trip with one of your drivers, including one stop in a low-signal area.
Have finance review one COD remittance in each system.
Choose the one that passed points 2, 3 and 4 with your own people, not just in the demo.
It depends on your operation. If you run your own drivers and collect COD, choose software that proves deliveries with stamped photos, records COD remittances with reference numbers, and works offline. NexLogistics by Nexvision is built for exactly this.
Yes, if it has a true offline mode. In NexLogistics, drivers can accept bookings and take proof photos with no signal. Everything uploads automatically when signal returns, with the original time and place.
Yes. NexLogistics records the remittance channel (GCash, Maya, bank or cash deposit) and the reference number, so finance can match every payment.
Not for delivery proof and COD: those run on the driver’s phone. Telematics hardware is only needed for vehicle data such as fault-code alerts, and NexLogistics supports compatible devices.
NexLogistics is a subscription service: a one-time implementation fee plus a monthly subscription. Book a free online demo for a quotation based on your operation.
