For fleets running Truckbase

The Truckbase alternative, built for cross-border fleets.

TransPlus is the Truckbase alternative for fleets that cross the border: dispatch, invoicing, driver pay, IFTA reporting (Enterprise plan), and CAD/USD billing in one platform. 1:1 live technical support on every plan, 7am to 6pm ET, Monday to Friday, with emergency after-hours support. Truckbase lists cross-border as coming soon. TransPlus has been running cross-border carriers since 1995.

Cross-border today, not coming soon.

Truckbase lists cross-border carriers as a coming-soon feature. TransPlus keeps customs documents attached to the load, with ACE and ACI eManifest support through BorderConnect and GeTS.

IFTA reporting (Enterprise plan) and CAD/USD billing.

Truckbase publishes no built-in IFTA reporting and no multi-currency billing. TransPlus pulls jurisdiction miles and fuel into IFTA reporting (Enterprise plan) and bills your American customers in USD and Canadian customers in CAD.

What Truckbase does well, and where the gap opens.

Truckbase is an easy dispatch tool, rated 4.8/5 on Capterra from 78 reviews: fast to learn, with responsive support and an AI load importer. The gap opens at the border: Truckbase lists cross-border, factoring, and fuel card integrations as coming soon, publishes no built-in IFTA reporting, and leans on QuickBooks sync for accounting. None of that matters until a customer hands you a load that crosses at Detroit or Buffalo.

Switching without the leap of faith.

Your customers and drivers come over through TransPlus templates. Historical loads and settlements stay in your Truckbase export, so keep a copy before you cancel. 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. You keep dispatching in Truckbase while we set up. Budget for a stretch where both systems run and your dispatchers learn the new screens. The QuickBooks file and ELDs you already run stay put.

Works with the ELDs you already run.

TransPlus has 66 integrations across accounting, fuel cards, telematics, trailer tracking and carrier onboarding, including QuickBooks, Sage, Samsara, Motive, ISAAC and Geotab. If your trucks are already on one of those ELDs, your positions and driver hours flow in from day one.

Truckbase FAQ
]

Common questions about switching from Truckbase.

Have another question?

Contact us →
Can I keep my ELD and QuickBooks?
Yes. TransPlus has 66 integrations across accounting, fuel cards, telematics, trailer tracking and carrier onboarding, including QuickBooks, Sage, Samsara, Motive, ISAAC and Geotab. Truck positions and driver hours flow into the trip board from the ELD you already run, and the accounting integration posts to QuickBooks or Sage. Nothing in your trucks changes, and your QuickBooks file stays where it is.
Does Truckbase do cross-border?
Not today. Truckbase's own navigation lists Cross-Border Carriers as coming soon, alongside factoring, routing and fuel card integrations. With TransPlus, ACE and ACI e-manifests and PARS and PAPS paperwork run from the load record through the ACE & ACI e-Manifest module, connected to BorderConnect and GeTS, so customs data is never keyed twice; it is an add-on module on every plan. Mill Creek Motor Freight cut driver time at the border by 65 percent.
Does Truckbase do IFTA reporting?
Truckbase publishes no IFTA reporting feature; its own blog points to QuickBooks for IFTA reporting. TransPlus includes IFTA reporting (Enterprise plan): it builds the quarterly report of jurisdiction miles and fuel from the trips you already dispatched. TransPlus produces the IFTA report; it does not file the return.
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.

Is Truckbase cheaper than TransPlus?
They are in the same range. Truckbase's site shows pricing from $290 per month billed annually. TransPlus Fleet Manager starts at $350 per month for Lite, for one user, on an annual contract billed quarterly, in CAD or USD; IFTA reporting (Enterprise plan) is on the $650 tier. Truckbase publishes no IFTA reporting feature and no multi-currency billing, so a cross-border fleet on Truckbase adds those elsewhere. Compare the total, not the first line.
What does the border cost on TransPlus?
The ACE & ACI e-Manifest module is an add-on on every plan, connected to BorderConnect and GeTS, and no module price is published. It is quoted separately, as are driver-app seats, EDI fees and the onboarding fee, so add all four to the plan price before you compare it with Truckbase's $290 per month billed annually.
What does TransPlus have that Truckbase doesn't?
Truckbase's own site lists cross-border carriers, factoring, routing and fuel cards as coming soon, publishes no IFTA reporting feature (its blog points to QuickBooks for IFTA reporting) and no multi-currency billing, and has no accounting module of its own; it syncs to QuickBooks. TransPlus runs cross-border customs documents, IFTA reporting (Enterprise plan) and CAD/USD billing today, builds invoices and driver pay from the trip record, integrates with QuickBooks and Sage, and backs EDI with an in-house team.
Who should stay on Truckbase?
A US-domestic fleet that never crosses the border, handles IFTA from QuickBooks and wants the simplest possible dispatch screen. Truckbase is rated 4.8/5 on Capterra from 78 reviews and carries a Capterra Best Ease of Use badge. A fleet that crosses at Detroit or Buffalo, bills in two currencies or needs EDI built and run for it should look at TransPlus.
Will our Truckbase data come over?
Your customers and drivers do, through TransPlus templates with a named onboarding specialist guiding the import. Historical loads and settlement records do not transfer, so export them from Truckbase and keep the file before you cancel. You keep dispatching in your current system while we set up.
