Which one is for you
Pick Everlance if
- Fits if you drive for work and need a mileage log for your taxes
- Works for small firms that reimburse staff by the mile
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you stay free, as detection stops at 30 trips a month
- Watch out: the 7-day Starter trial needs a credit card and bills you at the end unless you cancel

- Pricey if you pay monthly, at $10.99 for Starter against $89.99 for the year
- Too light for fixed-and-variable-rate (FAVR) programs, which go through the sales team with no price shown
Pick TripLog if

- Works for companies that pay mileage through payroll or accounting software
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you need yearly reports, because unlimited reporting and web access sit in Premium
- Skip it if you want a free trial of Premium, as there is one 7-day pass a year
- Watch out: team prices are $8 to $19 per user a month, with the billing term not shown
- Watch out: FAVR, Expense and Time are priced separately from Mileage
- Watch out: hardware is extra, at $79.99 for TripLog Drive and $19.99 for each Beacon

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
