24HOS ELD

24HOS ELD combines electronic logging with tools for fleet operations, including dispatch load offers and route planning. It is best suited to drivers and fleet teams prepared to connect a PT30 device and pay per application user. The broad workflow mix is useful, but the hardware requirement and custom monthly pricing make it a less straightforward choice than services with a clear published price.

Overview

24HOS brings HOS and ELD records, DVIR reports, DOT compliance support, and daily fleet functions into one platform. Drivers can transfer data to safety officials for FMCSA compliance, and inspection workflows are supported. That combination can reduce the need to juggle separate compliance and dispatch tools, particularly for teams already working with compatible hardware. 24HOS is FMCSA-registered.

The PT30 ELD is required to connect the service to a truck. This is more than a software signup: fleets need to account for the device as well as a subscription for each application user. Two drivers can share a phone or tablet, logging hours and switching profiles, which can help teams sharing a device without removing the per-user billing model.

Key features

• Compliance and inspection workflows: HOS and ELD data, DVIR reports, and DOT requirements address core recordkeeping needs. Data transfer to safety officials supports FMCSA compliance, making this a practical fit for drivers who need logging and inspection processes together.
• PT30 vehicle connection: The Android app guide describes engine diagnostics, driver status changes, and GPS tracking with the PT30 device. Those functions add vehicle context to logging, but fleets without that hardware should look elsewhere.
• Load Board: Dispatchers can send load offers directly into the app. That gives drivers and dispatch teams a shared point for offers, though the service's suitability depends on whether a fleet wants this alongside its compliance workflow.
• Route planning: Automated route planning and quick access to truck-driver tools extend the app beyond logging. The service may incorporate Google Maps features and content.
• Privacy and security: 24HOS says it uses administrative and technological safeguards, firewalls, password protection, and SSL encryption for purchase and subscription data in transit.

Pricing

The Monthly ELD service has custom pricing: the monthly rate and service scope are set after an individual conversation with a company representative. Billing is per application user, not per truck or device, and a subscription is required to connect a PT30 device to a truck. Fleets should clarify both the scope and the user count before committing; the same-phone team-driving option does not change the per-user charge.

Customers can cancel electronically each month at least three days before the current period ends. There is no refund for the remaining portion of that period, so cancellation timing matters.

Platforms

24HOS supports Android, iOS, and web. Separate Android and iOS guides cover the mobile apps; the PT30 connection capabilities described above are in the Android guide.

Who it's for

Drivers, dispatchers, fleet managers, owner-operators, and company drivers are the intended account types. It is strongest for teams that want logging, inspections, load offers, and route planning in one service and are willing to use PT30 hardware. It is a weaker fit for buyers who need to compare fixed per-vehicle prices, avoid hardware commitments, or select a software-only ELD.

Support is advertised as 24/7, while the terms give operating hours of 1 am–10 pm EST Monday–Friday and 1 am–4 pm EST Saturday–Sunday. That difference is worth clarifying if round-the-clock assistance is central to a fleet's decision.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Compliance records, DVIR reports, and inspection workflows sit alongside tools for routine fleet operations, reducing the need to split those tasks across products.
• Pro: Two drivers can switch profiles on one mobile device, a useful arrangement for teams sharing hardware.
• Con: A PT30 device is required for truck connection, so fleets seeking an app-only setup will need another option.
• Con: Custom per-user monthly pricing makes total cost harder to compare before speaking with sales, especially for teams with multiple drivers.
• Con: Support hours in the terms are narrower than the site's 24/7 support claim, leaving an important service expectation to resolve.

Verdict

Choose 24HOS ELD if your drivers and dispatchers want compliance, inspection, load-offer, and route-planning workflows together and your fleet is ready for PT30 hardware and per-user billing. Its main advantage is breadth across daily fleet tasks; its main drawback is the combined commitment of required hardware and custom pricing. If price certainty or an app-only setup matters more, compare alternatives before subscribing.
