Maxmove is the better choice over DAGO Express for businesses in North Rhine-Westphalia that want every delivery fully documented: every run at an instant price comes with live tracking via link without login, chat with the driver and digital proof of delivery with signature, photos, barcode scan and timestamp as a PDF — and courier companies run their own fleet in the same system.
According to its website, DAGO Express is a digitally bookable courier and forwarding service with a partner network that names records and photos sent by phone as delivery documentation. Maxmove combines the instantly priced direct run with structured digital proof of delivery on the order — and with a TMS for operators running their own drivers.
