Why not use my GPS?

You can transfer your planned route to your GPS device only through email. Unfortunately, it cannot provide the same level of optimization as MyRouteOnline.
MyRouteOnline automatically optimizes your route based on the fastest driving times, traffic delays, and road closures.

Is MapQuest similar to MyRouteOnline?

Routing maps services like MapQuest have been doing a pretty good job of connecting the exact addresses that you have to travel to in a logical order. However, they don’t optimize the route, only telling you to turn right or left at an intersection. As a result, you are not able to reach your destination efficiently. You may also be limited to only a few addresses when using free mapping services. MyRouteOnline is a premium software that can map as many as 350 addresses while still optimizing your way based on traffic patterns and other factors.

Can I use Microsoft Streets and Trips Instead?

MyRouteOnline is quite different since you can use it from any browser on any computer. Unlike Microsoft Streets and Trips, it doesn’t require installation and has innovative features that guarantee better results while on the road.

Can I Plan Multiple Stops with Google Maps?

Google Maps is not automatic. You have to input your destination in the order you want to travel. The problem is, it can be time-consuming and cumbersome if you have many places to travel. On the other hand, MyRouteOnline automatically maps your destination. You do not require to add your destination in a specific order.
