Why teams choose
Fleetio over WhipAround

Automate what slows fleets down

WhipAround stops where the real work starts. It can’t whip up work orders, track costs, automate workflows or close the maintenance loop, outside of basic work orders. Fleetio’s workflows can do it all while eliminating manual data entry and repetitive admin work, keeping every vehicle record accurate and up-to-date with ease.

Built for the whole maintenance operation

WhipAround can help you see problems, but Fleetio helps you solve them. Connect teams in one platform with integrations for third-party shops, telematics and data warehouses — not just forms and checklists.

Act on fleet intelligence faster

If your fleet is even a little complex — we’re talking mixed assets, multiple locations, blended maintenance — WhipAround can’t handle that kind of structure. But Fleetio can turn a whole fleet’s data into actionable insights that drive uptime, cost savings and smarter replacement decisions, no matter what that fleet looks like.
