Dispatch starts at $179.40 CAD/month billed annually with unlimited staff seats and no per-truck platform fee; higher plans and driver licences change the complete price.
The 5-50 truck range is the hardest stage to buy software for. You have outgrown the tools built for owner-operators, you are nowhere near needing an enterprise platform, and the vendors in between mostly price per truck — which means the better your year goes, the worse your software deal gets.

Driver-file and recruiting workflows from Elite — organize Part 391 records, Clearinghouse status, and expiries across a growing roster.
Live dispatch board with unlimited planner seats — hire the second dispatcher without a licensing conversation.
Part 395 HOS auditing — catch hours-of-service patterns across the fleet before a compliance review does.
Mixed pay handled natively — company drivers and owner-operators settle from the same dispatch data with the correct model applied to each.
Maintenance and equipment tracking from Elite — PM schedules, work orders, and inspection records alongside operational data.
One system through the growth curve — the platform that runs five trucks runs fifty without a migration.
At three trucks, one person holds the whole operation in their head and a spreadsheet is a reasonable record. At fifteen, that stops being true — not gradually, but suddenly, usually during a week when two things go wrong at once. The symptoms are recognizable: a load nobody invoiced, a driver dispatched without hours, a medical card that expired three weeks ago.
Compliance is where the failure is most expensive. A driver qualification program that one person maintained by memory does not survive a roster of twenty-five. Part 391 requires specific documents with specific retention, Clearinghouse queries are required at hire and annually, and each driver carries several documents with independent expiry dates. That is a tracking problem that only software solves reliably.
The other break point is billing. At five trucks, invoicing weekly is survivable. At twenty-five it is a part-time job, and the delay directly finances your customers rather than your operation.
Per-truck pricing is most seductive exactly here, because at five trucks it looks trivially cheap. A platform at $20 per truck per month costs $100 at five trucks and $1,000 at fifty — and the value delivered per truck did not increase.
Per-seat pricing is worse in a different way: it prices the exact hires that growth requires. When you add a night dispatcher and a billing clerk, your software bill rises because your operation got more capable.
A plan price changes the unit economics. At the $179.40 Dispatch annual-equivalent, five trucks is about $36 per truck and fifty trucks about $3.59 before higher-tier modules or driver licences. Repeat the calculation for the actual configuration you require.
Twenty drivers can mean many documents with independent expiry dates, plus annual Clearinghouse queries and MVR reviews. Elite driver-file workflows can organize the records and surface gaps for review.
Most growing fleets end up with both. Running two pay models from one dispatch record avoids the parallel-spreadsheet problem, where the settlement data and the dispatch data slowly diverge.
Unlimited staff seats let multiple planners use the same live board without a per-seat platform charge.
A growing carrier can organize stored driver records and retention history into a review packet, then validate it against the specific request.

View plansChoose the platform that fits your dispatch, Part 391, Clearinghouse, HOS, IFTA, settlement, integration, and support requirements at your expected 12-month fleet size. TruckerPro offers these workflows across plan tiers with unlimited staff users; compare the feature matrix and separately licensed services rather than assuming every feature is in the entry tier.
Calculate each quote at today’s fleet and your expected 12-month size, including modules, hardware, implementation, staff seats, and driver licences. TruckerPro does not add a per-truck platform charge, but higher plans and driver-licence tiers can change the total.
Yes. Both run from the same dispatch data with the correct pay model applied to each — hourly, per-mile, or percentage for company drivers; percentage or flat rate with deductions, escrow, and chargebacks for owner-operators. A mixed fleet does not need two systems.
Driver qualification workflows can track configured Part 391 record types, expiry dates, and archived files and compile stored records for review. The carrier should validate retention and qualification requirements for each driver.
The same platform is designed to support a five-truck and a fifty-truck operation. There is no per-truck platform charge, but higher plan requirements and additional driver licences can increase the total price as the operation grows.
Driver-app eligibility begins at Mobile, but driver mobile access requires a separately activated monthly licence tier based on licensed-driver count. Staff users remain unlimited on the carrier plan. The separate fleet dispatcher app is currently a preview; confirm release access during the demo.
