School Bus Routing Software

Alternatives to RouteCabin

RouteCabin brings school transport control into one service for operators, schools, colleges and districts. Drivers use Android or iOS phones to send location updates without extra vehicle GPS hardware. Alongside a live fleet map, route replay, speed alerts, geofencing and parent ETAs, it manages fee vouchers, payment tracking, attendance, vehicle and driver records, expiry alerts and expenses. WhatsApp can deliver receipts, reminders, attendance alerts and trip updates without requiring a parent app. The free tier covers 15 passengers and one vehicle; paid plans range from Rs. 3,000 to Rs. 15,000 per month, with higher passenger and vehicle limits.
