Fleet Manager

Dispatch, driver pay and invoicing for fleets that run their own trucks.

TransPlus's Fleet Manager software runs dispatch, load planning, driver pay and customer invoicing for asset-based carriers in one system, with IFTA reporting on the Enterprise plan. Fleets from a handful of trucks to several hundred use it on both sides of the border, in CAD or USD. Plans start at $350 a month for one user, billed quarterly, and every plan comes with 1:1 live technical support. Built in Canada since 1995.

Where every truck is, without a check call.

Truck positions come in from the ELD you already run, such as Samsara, Motive, ISAAC or Geotab. Fleet Manager is not a telematics tool; it connects to the one you have.

Plan loads, cut empty miles.

The planning tools show loads and trucks together, so dispatch can line up the next trip instead of sending a truck home empty.

Fleet management software that builds driver pay and customer invoices from the same load.

Fleet Manager runs driver payroll and customer invoicing in one place and posts both to the accounting package you already use, so the invoice and the driver's settlement come off the load you dispatched.

Fleet Manager FAQ
]

Common questions about Fleet Manager software.

Have another question?

Contact us →
Can Fleet Manager handle the loads I broker to other carriers?

Yes. Fleet Manager includes brokerage, so loads your own drivers haul and loads you broker out to other carriers run and bill from one system, with the carrier payable built on the same load. Logistics Manager is for brokers and 3PLs with no trucks of their own.

Does Fleet Manager work with my ELD?

Yes. Fleet Manager integrates with Samsara, Motive, ISAAC, Geotab, PeopleNet, Omnitracs and FleetHunt, so truck positions come onto the trip board without a call to the driver. Telematics integration is included in every Fleet Manager plan, from Lite at $350 per month for one user. The full list of 66 integrations, across accounting, fuel cards, telematics, trailer tracking and carrier onboarding, is on the integrations page.

Does TransPlus do IFTA fuel-tax reporting?

Yes, on the Enterprise plan. IFTA reporting (Enterprise plan) builds the quarterly report of jurisdiction miles and fuel from the trip miles and fuel purchases already in Fleet Manager, with distance coming in from telematics such as Samsara or ISAAC. TransPlus produces the IFTA report; it does not file the return. Lite and Standard do not include it, and it is not sold as an add-on.

How long does onboarding take?

Onboarding takes 30 to 90 days depending on fleet size and data migration, and most Fleet Manager customers are live within 60 days, with a named onboarding specialist. Your specialist guides the import of your customers, drivers, carriers, trucks and trailers with TransPlus templates and trains your team live on the software and the integrations you've purchased before go-live.

Fleets switching from Rose Rocket or Avaal have the onboarding fee waived through October 31, 2026.
How much does Fleet Manager cost?

Fleet Manager starts at $350 per month for Lite, $500 for Standard and $650 for Enterprise, and Logistics Manager starts at $500 per month, each for one user. Every plan is an annual contract billed quarterly, in CAD or USD depending on where your business operates. Every plan includes 1:1 live technical support. The full tier comparison is on our pricing page.

Is TransPlus cloud-based?

Yes. TransPlus is cloud-hosted and reached over the internet, so there is no server in your office to run or patch. Drivers use the TransPlus Connect app on their phones, and your data lives in the cloud.

We only run in the US. Is TransPlus for us?

Yes. TransPlus is built in Canada and run by carriers on both sides of the border. A fleet based in the United States is billed in US dollars, connects QuickBooks, Samsara, Motive or Geotab like any other fleet, and only adds the ACE and ACI e-Manifest module if it crosses. IFTA reporting (Enterprise plan) builds the quarterly report of jurisdiction miles and fuel; you file the return.

What comes over from our current system?

Customers, drivers, carriers, trucks and trailers, through TransPlus templates, with the import guided by a person rather than a ticket queue. Order history is not part of the import, so keep an export from your old system and keep dispatching in it until the day you switch. Onboarding takes 30 to 90 days depending on fleet size and data migration, and most Fleet Manager customers are live within 60 days, with a named onboarding specialist.

What is Fleet Manager?

Fleet Manager is TransPlus's TMS for asset-based carriers: trucking dispatch software, load and asset planning, driver pay and customer invoicing in one cloud platform, including the loads you broker to outside carriers, with IFTA reporting (Enterprise plan) and the TransPlus Connect driver app feeding documents and PODs straight to the trip record. It runs fleets from a handful of trucks to several hundred; Kriska runs 800 trucks on it. Plans start at $350 per month for one user, billed quarterly.

What is the difference between a TMS and fleet management software?

A TMS runs the freight: orders, dispatch, invoicing and driver pay. Fleet management software runs the trucks: maintenance, telematics and compliance. Fleet Manager is a TMS for asset-based carriers. It is not a maintenance or telematics tool; it connects to the one you already have, such as Samsara, Motive, ISAAC or Geotab, so truck positions land on the trip board. The longer answer is in our guide to TMS versus fleet management software.

What kinds of freight run on Fleet Manager?

Dry van, reefer, tanker and oversize freight, plus cross-border lanes in both directions. Customer stories with each fleet's own numbers are on the customer stories page.

What's included in Fleet Manager Lite?

Lite includes dispatch with track and trace, load and asset planning, telematics integration, order entry and management, document imaging, basic driver payroll, customer invoicing and accounting package integration. It is the starting point for smaller fleets, at $350 per month for one user, billed quarterly. Lite allows up to 3 users. The full tier comparison is on the pricing page.

What support is included?

1:1 live technical support on every plan, 7am to 6pm ET, Monday to Friday, with emergency after-hours support. A 15-truck fleet is not triaged behind a 300-truck account. Support is 1-800-257-9548 or support@transplus.io, on every plan from Lite to Enterprise.
