Not as easy as ChargePoint stations.
It is a bit of a hassle to: 1) open the app 2) plug in the car 3) find the station site 4) select the charging station 5) wait for the charge to begin This all takes about 1-2 minutes if the app correctly located the station. The app just said I was almost a mile away from the station I used. A ChargePoint station allows you to: 1) remotely connect your phone to unlock the charging station. 2) plug-in and charge the car. The ChargePoint system takes about 10-15 seconds. If I were installing stations at my business I would not use the Livingston Charge system unless they offer a remote connect option like ChargePoint. The Livingston system feels clunky, slow, and just leaves the user feeling a bit frustrated to have to go through all the steps. I could give the system a few more stars, because it does do the job to charge the car. But in this day and age, these systems should be operating in a streamlined fashion to seamlessly connect with our phones. The Livingston system just feels like a system being adopted by a second rate operator or something out of the Dilbert cartoon where more bureaucratic steps are put in place to slow down a process that should be so simple.
