Best for route planning for delivery and field crews
OptimoRoute plans routes and schedules for drivers and field crews, from $35.10 a driver a month billed annually. That's all it does: it has no quoting, invoicing or customer records, and price grows with every driver you add.
Who OptimoRoute is for
- Fits if you run drivers or crews who make many stops a day and need a better order
- Works for firms that already have quoting and billing elsewhere
Who OptimoRoute is not for
- Not for you if you want invoicing or quoting, as it has neither
- Pricey if your fleet grows, because the price is per driver
- Tight if you plan over 700 orders at once on Lite or 1,000 on Pro, which is the cap
- Watch out: proof of delivery, feedback, analytics and real-time tracking are not in Lite
Why OptimoRoute gets a 2.0
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for money$35.10 per driver a month billed annually is just above the category's cheaper quarter at $35, and Pro is $44.10. A five-driver team pays about $245 a month on Pro billed monthly.
- CFree plan and trialA 30-day free trial needs no credit card. There is no free plan.
- DFeaturesRoute planning, a driver app, live tracking and ETAs, proof of delivery, analytics and an API. It plans routes only, with no quoting, invoicing or customer records of its own, so it needs another product.
- CEase of useNo store rating on record. Orders and drivers have to be loaded in before it plans anything. Its own site shows 4.6 from 268 reviews, under the 300 needed to count.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb, iPhone and Android, with an API. No integrations are listed, and there's no desktop app.

Keep OptimoRoute, or make your own?
Keep it
The plain part of OptimoRoute you could make: job scheduling and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 4 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
It costs $421.20 a year.
What you could make
- Job scheduling and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- A scheduler that rearranges your day as things move.
- Scanning barcodes with a phone camera or a scanner.
- 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. OptimoRoute’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.
What is OptimoRoute?
OptimoRoute plans daily routes and schedules for delivery and field service teams, taking driver skills, vehicle capacity, time windows and job durations into account. Drivers get routes in a mobile app, and managers can follow them live. It is priced per driver, with a 30-day free trial and no setup fees.
Worth knowing
- It plans routes and schedules only; it has no quoting, invoicing or customer records of its own.
- Price is per driver, so cost rises with each added driver.
- Proof of delivery, customer feedback, analytics and real-time order tracking are not in Lite.
- Plans cap the orders planned at one time: 700 on Lite, 1000 on Pro. Daily and monthly volume is not capped.
Key features
- Automated route planning
- Imported orders are assigned to drivers and sequenced with constraints such as time windows, priorities, driver skills, vehicle capacity and job duration.
- Driver mobile app
- Routes, schedules, navigation and customer details are sent to the drivers' phones. The app can scan barcodes to confirm an order is complete.
- Live tracking and ETAs
- Managers see where drivers are, which orders are done and who is behind. Customers can get ETA and status notifications by text or email.
- Proof of delivery and feedback
- Drivers capture signatures, photos and notes. Customers can get post-service surveys by email and SMS. Both need the Pro plan or higher.
- Analytics
- Route data is turned into statistics on driver performance and reasons for service delays. Analytics is part of the Pro plan.
- Web service API
- Orders and routes can be exchanged with other systems through an API that is included on every plan.
