01
After-hours dispatch outage
Dispatch runs 24/7, IT often doesn't. When VoIP, TMS, or the dispatch console drops at 2am Saturday, the answer can't be a voicemail box.

IT support for dispatch that doesn't stop.
Dispatch operations run 24/7/365. IT support has to match that. EFROS provides after-hours response, VoIP and TMS continuity, and pre-authorized containment during incidents — so loads keep moving when something fails.
Common dispatch pain points.
02
TMS integration breaks the email flow
A TMS upgrade or SaaS change pushes new mail patterns and the existing anti-spam rules block legitimate load confirmations. Drivers and brokers wait.
03
Ransomware on a dispatcher PC
One unpatched workstation in the dispatch pod encrypts the file share. Without pre-authorized containment, the response loop adds hours; loads sit.
04
Driver phone provisioning at scale
Driver turnover means constant device onboarding and offboarding. Without a standardized intake process, lost devices remain enrolled and ex-drivers retain access.
05
VoIP quality degradation
Call drops or audio quality issues during a peak hour look small individually and add up to load failures, missed pickups, and driver frustration.

FAQ.
What is the response time on a real after-hours dispatch outage?
P1 (dispatch impacted) gets a 15-minute acknowledgement target with a senior engineer on the line. The exact SLA is documented in the service agreement and varies by tier.
Do you support hybrid environments — some onsite servers, some cloud?
Yes. Most dispatch operations are hybrid: TMS on-premise, mail in Microsoft 365, accounting in QuickBooks Online, GPS via vendor SaaS. We monitor the whole picture under one engagement.
Can EFROS replace our incumbent MSP without a dispatch outage?
Yes. The transition runs in parallel for thirty to sixty days. The incumbent stays primary while we document everything, validate backups, harden Microsoft 365, deploy EDR, and stand up monitoring. Then the cutover is a single coordinated event with both parties on the bridge.
