New Zum Product Releases
As the industry leader in student transportation, we at Zum are always looking for ways to enhance our product and ensure that everyone—from students to parents to bus drivers to school administrators—experience safe and sustainable transportation.
Our product gets kids safely to and from school. It gives parents peace of mind by letting them know where their children are, it takes care of scheduling and helps drivers focus on the road, and it helps school districts reduce costs and increase efficiency by optimizing each route, vehicle and schedule.
We’re constantly listening, incorporating input, and releasing new features. Follow us here for all product updates!
