TransPlus is the Truckbase alternative for fleets that cross the border: dispatch, invoicing, driver pay, IFTA reporting, and CAD/USD billing in one platform, with 1:1 support 7am to 7pm. Truckbase lists cross-border as coming soon. TransPlus has been running cross-border carriers since 1995.
Why cross-border fleets pick TransPlus
Cross-border today, not coming soon
Truckbase's own site, checked August 10, 2026, 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 and CAD/USD built in
Truckbase publishes no built-in IFTA reporting and no multi-currency billing. TransPlus pulls jurisdiction miles and fuel into IFTA reporting and bills your American customers in USD and Canadian customers in CAD.
EDI with a team behind it
When the 214s stop flowing, you call our in-house EDI team, not a ticket queue. Carrier EDI setups since 1995 sit behind the phone.
What Truckbase does well, and where the gap opens
Truckbase is a genuinely easy dispatch tool, rated 4.8/5 on Capterra from 75 reviews as of August 10, 2026. Capterra reviewers praise how fast dispatchers learn it, the responsive support, and an AI importer that reads rate confirmations and builds loads. If you run a US-domestic fleet and want slick dispatch with minimal training, it is a fair choice.
The gap opens at the border. As of August 10, 2026, Truckbase's site lists cross-border carriers, factoring, and fuel card integrations as coming soon, publishes no built-in IFTA reporting, and leans on its QuickBooks sync for accounting and tax work. Its Capterra reviewers also note QuickBooks sync friction and settlements that need work. None of that matters until the day a customer hands you a load for Laredo or Windsor. Then it is the whole job.
Switching without the leap of faith
Nobody switches TMS software for fun, so here is the honest version. 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. A named specialist runs a 60-day onboarding plan with you, and you keep dispatching in Truckbase while we set up, so 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.
Common questions about switching from Truckbase
What does TransPlus have that Truckbase doesn't?
Checked August 10, 2026: Truckbase lists cross-border features as coming soon, publishes no built-in IFTA reporting or multi-currency billing, and points fleets to its QuickBooks sync for accounting. TransPlus runs cross-border customs documents, IFTA reporting, and CAD/USD billing today, integrates with QuickBooks and Sage, and backs EDI with an in-house team.
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.
Can we keep our ELDs and accounting software?
Is Truckbase cheaper than TransPlus?
They are in the same range. Truckbase's site shows pricing from $290 US per month billed annually, which means a year paid up front, while its software listings show $490 per month, checked August 10, 2026. TransPlus Fleet Manager starts at $350 per month, billed quarterly, in USD or CAD depending on where your business operates. The difference is not the licence fee. It is whether IFTA, CAD/USD billing, and cross-border paperwork run on day one.
