Updates, news & guides for renting a bus
Platform updates, industry news and practical guides for school trips, club outings, corporate events and all kinds of group bus travel in Germany.
Scheduled Bus Service Software: Plan Timetables and Dispatch Runs in the Cloud
Commuter service, school bus, fixed shuttle line: set up the timetable once, Busly creates every run, handles public holidays, optimises the route and dispatches bus and driver for the whole series. Free instead of an expensive licence.
Bus logistics software: plan and award large coach projects yourself
Festival shuttles, shift transport, trade fair logistics: as soon as a contract consists of dozens of connected trips, it has so far ended up with a middleman. There is now software for it – for organisers and companies who want to tender themselves, and for bus operators who want to run such projects themselves.
The driver app for bus operators: trips and driving time straight to the phone
Requests, dispatching, invoices – much of a bus operation is long digital. Only with the driver did the paper stay. How the Busly driver app brings tours, driving time and proof to the phone, and why the connection to dispatching is what closes the loop.
CRM and live chat for bus operators: customers in one place
Customer data on a private phone, requests lost in the email chaos, the history only in the dispatcher's head: that's how bus companies lose repeat customers. How an integrated CRM with live chat turns one-off trips into returning customers – and why the link to marketplace and booking makes the difference.
Direct booking for bus charter: rent a coach without offer loops
Chartering a coach used to mean “submit a request, wait three days, compare offers”. With Busly's new fixed-price model, customers can now book selected trips directly – and operators decide for themselves whether to auto-accept or keep sending individual offers.
Cloud-based dispatching software for bus operators
Excel sheets and whiteboards hold operations together in many bus companies until they don't. How cloud-based dispatching solves the typical break points and why the connection to the request marketplace is the real differentiator.
AI Price Calculator for Bus Companies: Fair Quotes in Seconds
Busly's new AI price calculator generates market-based offer prices in seconds – route-based, using your individual cost values and a model that's retrained on a regular schedule. The end of gut-feeling pricing and Excel chaos.
