Frontier vs Rigbooks: which fits your fleet?

Rigbooks prices each user; Frontier prices trucks and includes every user. For a small office with a dispatcher, a biller and drivers, that difference adds up.

  • Free on one truck

When Rigbooks might fit better

Rigbooks leans toward bookkeeping — ledger, payables and receivables — and has an entry plan at $19 per user. If one person runs a single truck's books, it can cost less. Frontier is operations software and works alongside your bookkeeper rather than replacing a general ledger.

Built by a carrier

Frontier is built and run daily by a family-owned carrier, not a software vendor working from requirements docs. That shaped what got built first: dispatch, driver pay, and the documents that actually stall a load.
