Best for automatic mileage logs on a free plan
Driversnote tracks trips automatically on iOS, Android and web and has a free plan. Free stops at 15 trips a month, Pro is $11 a month, and it logs mileage only.
Who Driversnote is for
- Fits if you drive a handful of work trips a month and want to log them for free
- Works for small teams of 2 to 10 who need to collect and approve drivers' logs
Who Driversnote is not for
- Tight if you drive often: Free reports on 15 trips a month, and unlimited trips need Pro
- Pricey if you pay monthly, with Pro at $11 a month against $132 billed yearly
- Skip it if you need receipts or other expenses, as it tracks mileage only
- Watch out: Teams is $11 per license a month for 2 to 10 users, and 11 or more go through sales
- Watch out: the page does not say whether the Teams price is billed monthly or yearly

Keep Driversnote, or make your own?
Keep it
The plain part of Driversnote you could make: expense tracking and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
It costs $132 a year.
What you could make
- Expense tracking and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- An API that other software can build on.
What this rests on. Driversnote’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
