Truckfile alternative
A Truckfile alternative for last-mile driver compliance
A Truckfile alternative makes sense when the fleet is vans and self-employed couriers, not a truck workshop. Zerity keeps the driver legal and paid. Truckfile is built for DVSA workshop compliance.
What Truckfile is good at
Truckfile is DVSA-accredited fleet and workshop software. Operators who need maintenance records, inspection history and HGV compliance, including content on DVS, will find that focus useful. It is the wrong centre of gravity for an Amazon DSP that onboards drivers every week and pays them by self-billing.
At a glance
| Question | Truckfile | Zerity |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | UK truck and workshop compliance | Courier companies, DSPs and last-mile depots |
| Accreditation story | DVSA-accredited fleet and workshop system | Audit trail for driver documents, not a DVSA Earned Recognition badge we do not hold |
| Driver pay | Not the core product | Self-billing and payments included |
| Onboarding | Driver compliance inside a fleet system | Contractor onboarding measured in the same file as pay |
| Who should stay | HGV workshops and operators whose auditor asks for maintenance systems | Depots whose auditor asks who drove, on what documents, and how they were paid |
Who should switch
Move if driver turnover and Friday pay are the operational risk. Stay if the workshop and the O-licence maintenance file are the risk, and Truckfile already satisfies your DVSA process. Zerity will not replace a workshop system, and we will not claim DVSA accreditation we do not have.
