Straight answer first: ProTransport’s Basic tier is free, and we cannot beat free. It is also owned by RTS, a factoring and fuel-card company, and it is built to sit inside that relationship. Truxello is $29 a month for one truck, $164 for ten, works with whatever factor you already use, and reads your rate confirmations with AI.

ProTransport publishes four tiers: Basic at $0 a month, Premium at $125 a month, and Enterprise and Legacy at custom pricing. If the free tier covers what you need — driver and truck profiles, IFTA reporting, document storage — then it is cheaper than anything we will ever offer, and you should use it.
Where it gets worth comparing is Premium at $125 a month. That is more than Truxello charges for a seven-truck fleet, and the features it unlocks (expanded profiles, automatic WEX fuel imports, driver pay statements) are things we include at every tier. QuickBooks integration and real-time load alerts sit in the custom-priced Enterprise tier there; they are standard here.
The other thing to weigh is who owns it. RTS sells factoring and fuel cards, and ProTransport is part of that offer — customer reviews routinely describe getting set up with RTS factoring and the fuel card alongside the software. That bundle is convenient if you want it and awkward if you don’t.
No sales call needed to see it: loads, dispatch, the driver app, invoicing, settlements, IFTA and reports, in one 26-minute walkthrough.

ProTransport prices and tier features are from rtsinc.com and pro-transport.com, read October 2026. Truxello is $29 for the first truck, $15 for each truck from 2 to 10, and $12 after 10, every feature included. ProTransport Basic is free and ProTransport Premium is flat-rate, so it is cheaper than Truxello above roughly eight trucks — the comparison below is about what you get, not what you save. One caution worth repeating from public reviews: at least one customer reported being charged for months after an unmonitored free trial and being refused a refund. Confirm in writing what converts to paid and when. If anything here is out of date, email support@truxello.com and we’ll correct it.

We’d rather you pick the right tool than the one with the better landing page. ProTransport is likely the better fit if:
Not against the free tier, and not above about eight trucks. ProTransport publishes Basic at $0 a month, Premium at $125 a month flat, and Enterprise and Legacy at custom pricing. Truxello charges per truck: $29 for the first, $15 for trucks 2 through 10, and $12 after that. So we are cheaper from one to seven trucks ($29 to $119 against $125), and ProTransport Premium is cheaper from roughly eight trucks upward because its price does not move. Nothing beats Basic at $0. What changes the arithmetic is which tier you actually need: QuickBooks sync and real-time load alerts sit in ProTransport's custom-priced Enterprise tier, and both are included in our $29.
ProTransport is sold as software in its own right, so no. But it is owned by RTS, which sells factoring and fuel cards, and published customer reviews routinely describe being set up with RTS factoring and the RTS fuel card alongside the software. If you already factor elsewhere, or want to keep shopping your rate, be clear about that up front. Truxello does not sell factoring or fuel cards at all: we track factoring per load with fees so your numbers stay right, and we import fuel card statements from EFS, WEX, Comdata and anything else you can export, but we have no stake in which factor you use. If you carry an RTS card, it is issued on the EFS or WEX network, so its statement imports too.
Not that we can find published. Load and document entry is manual, and reviewers describe the workflow as spreadsheet-like, which several of them mean as a compliment. Truxello's AI reads the rate confirmation PDF and fills in the broker, stops, dates, rate and commodity so nobody retypes it, and the dispatch board then flags late pickups, missing BOLs and uninvoiced loads. If you book broker freight daily, that is where the time goes; if you run dedicated lanes off the same handful of customers, it matters much less.
It does, though on 11 reviews rather than hundreds, and the praise in them is mostly about onboarding help and ease of use rather than depth. The same public record includes reviewers asking for a newer version with more features for larger fleets, noting you cannot attach photos to maintenance records, and one complaint about being billed for months after an unmonitored trial. We have fewer reviews than that and will not pretend otherwise, which is why the trial is the honest tiebreaker: 14 days, no card, your own freight. Keep whichever wins.
Not exactly. Legacy is downloadable on-premise software with its own accounting, dispatch, safety and maintenance modules, aimed at larger fleets that want the system on their own equipment. Truxello is cloud-only and syncs with QuickBooks Online rather than keeping a general ledger, so if on-premise deployment or in-system accounting is a firm requirement, Legacy is the better answer. For a truckload carrier under about 25 trucks that is happy in the cloud and happy with QuickBooks, Truxello covers dispatch, tracking, invoicing, settlements, IFTA, fuel, compliance and the driver app in one place.
