Alike, catches wind shakes the tree. Uber's investors have raised valuations to $18.2 billion trillion, with financing at $1.2 billion trillion, and valuations reaching 17 billion before trading. Founded in November 2011, so far less than 4 years, Uber created a record of the 18.2 billion dollar valuation, in addition to the stunning eyeball, there are competitors envy envy hate. Uber's own advantages are obvious, but the short plate is also very prominent, Uber exactly how much money, not only competitors concern, but the industry and external concern.

Obvious advantages and rapid development

From the birth, Uber in a special, flattering way to develop and expand their own. For the various roles in the taxi service, Uber chose to win for the purpose of winning, among passengers, drivers, competitors and city managers to find a profit balance point.

According to statistics, since January this year, the Uber platform has more than 20,000 new registered drivers each month. Currently, Uber has been operating in 128 cities in 37 countries. Uber from the establishment of less than four years, received such recognition, Uber can be said to be a rapid development, which stems from the advantages of Uber itself, mainly has the following points.

Change your habits, Uber

Uber is not only to provide convenient services, but more important, but also more meaningful is that Uber changed us, changed our habits, changed our way of life. Before the car can only go to the main road waiting to be pick up. If the destination is too far away, like a cross city or a long-distance crossing, the chances of being able to call a car are almost nil. Ultimately, you can only choose to drive after you rent a car, or reverse to the destination. The appearance of Uber subversion of the traditional car-calling mode.

In the Uber, as long as willing to pay, you can get a variety of personalized, human, non-standard real-time services. This is the future of the development of the central way of life. Life service, not only call the car service, will be provided immediately according to the user needs. Uber is not only a service, but a kind of centralized way of life, a completely different from the traditional way of innovation.

Technical support, information for the king

Because of the licensing problem, the actual price of Uber users to take a taxi is usually slightly lower than the taxi. Through the default evaluation mechanism, if the driver's service is not good or expensive, passengers can choose to complain, the next time you can choose another high quality and low price drivers. From the driver's point of view, passengers will still be willing to pay a higher price if they cannot reach the car and need a taxi, or have special service requirements for the car or the driver.

And the traditional taxi drivers and passengers, the information between each other is not known, the passengers do not know the driver's situation, the driver can not understand the needs of passengers. Uber platform can be a good solution to the supply and demand problems.

In addition to simply providing a more open and transparent information exchange platform, Uber do more than that, Uber behind the fact that there are technical support. In the founder Travis, the future Uber to do is a one-stop transportation solutions, to achieve personal information classification, reasonable matching information.

How could a competitor stand by

In the face of Uber's expansive development, competitors will not stand idly by. The enemy is his friend. Uber competitors can reach a price alliance, providing users with price advantages, including passengers and drivers more generous treatment, as the domestic two yelling car software quick taxi and drop the minister similar to the challenge Uber high-speed expansion of the reliance base.

Mobile phone call car is a price-sensitive industry, adhere to the final is not necessarily a winner, the most important thing is the establishment of the market ecosystem. So far, Uber has had almost nothing more than an application, a set of deployment systems, and people. The participants in the small market, called the car, can jump from Uber to one of their competitors at any time, mainly to see who offers better quality and cheaper services. Uber is one of the first companies in the world to enter the mobile phone call car field, although the market share is still OK, but its development state may not be as optimistic as investors expect.
