“With mobile devices playing such a vital role in our daily lives, it made sense to develop the next generation of this app for our professional drivers,” said Daragh Mahon, Werner’s chief information officer. “Developing solutions for our professional drivers is key to our success and a key pillar of Werner Edge’s goal of bettering the industry through technology.”

Drive Werner Pro is an evolution of the first Drive Werner app, which has been used by Werner drivers for five years.

Werner Edge, the innovation technology arm of Werner Enterprises, plans to continue enhancing and adding to the app’s features based on driver needs.

The app’s responsive design enables Werner’s professional drivers to access it on virtually any device. Werner drivers have access to the new Drive Werner Pro app on their mobile device or on their Edge Connect tablet.

“Our goal for Drive Werner Pro was to create a solution that is easy to use and easy to navigate,” said Chris Polenz, vice president of driver recruiting. “By streamlining communication and creating a simple interface that is customizable to provide individualized trip details and much more, Drive Werner Pro gives support to our drivers while they’re on the road.”  

Over a year ago, Werner Enterprises rolled out Werner Edge for drivers, an innovative technology solution featuring modern tablets and a more efficient, easy-to-use workflow.
