Alvys runs modern dispatch. Fleetive runs compliance & drivers — on published pricing.
An honest look at Alvys vs. Fleetive for an owner-operator or small carrier.
To be fair, Alvys is an impressive, cloud-native TMS: automated load creation, drag-and-drop dispatch, a driver app, IFTA, accounting/settlements, 120+ integrations, and native EDI. It even includes compliance modules — record centralization, expiration/inspection alerts, audit-prep, and carrier verification. For a carrier or broker that lives in dispatch, it’s a strong all-in-one, and Fleetive doesn’t try to match its freight automation.
Two things make it a different buy for a small carrier. First, Alvys names its plans (Foundations, Growth, Scale) but quotes each by load volume, so you cannot see a number without asking — though Foundations does come with a 14-day free trial. Second, while it has compliance modules, it doesn’t prominently surface a dedicated DQF vault or FMCSA/CSA safety-score tracking as a primary product, and no driver self-serve portal is listed.
Fleetive comes at it from the opposite side: compliance and drivers as the core — a DQF/CDL vault, FMCSA safety dashboard, expiration alerts, a driver self-serve portal, and itemized settlements — on published flat pricing with a 14-day no-card trial and no demo. Many carriers run a freight TMS for dispatch and Fleetive for compliance.
