Configure Parameters
Each Taxi Company is different, with its own unique dispatch characteristics.

PiccoloTaxi is designed to accommodate a large variety of requirements. The System Manager can change many important dispatch parameters 'on the fly'.

For more complex adaption, we will be happy to provide you with the custom features that you require. Thanks to our open architecture, such customization is much more practical and affordable compared to older systems in the marketplace.

A few of the many configuration parameters are explained below:

Parameters
Configuring Parameters
