The short answer
Why TaxiDex tops the list in Leeds
Most dispatch tools were priced for a different era — per vehicle, per trip, or in rigid ride-buckets that punish you for growing. For a United Kingdom fleet the winner is the one that is localised, fairly priced, and quick to switch to.
Leeds City Council licenses both Hackney Carriage (rank/hail) and Private Hire vehicles separately, and cross-border hiring from neighbouring West Yorkshire councils is a long-running enforcement pain point.
