Driversnote vs Ramp Mileage Reimbursement

Driversnote tracks business mileage for individuals and teams, with automatic trip logging through phone motion detection. Drivers can classify trips as business or personal, and entering work hours enables automatic classification. Reports can be saved as PDF or Excel and sent through the app. An optional Bluetooth iBeacon in a vehicle starts or stops tracking when the driver enters or leaves. Teams includes report collection, review and approval, tags, notes, reminders, custom rates, and audit tools. Managers see submitted trips only, and personal details can be censored in team reports. Driversnote says it records location only while a user is driving and that users own their trip data. The Free plan allows reports for up to 15 trips per month; subscription plans allow unlimited trips and reports. Pro costs $11 a month and includes an edit log and public API. Teams also costs $11 a month for 2–10 users, with report collection and validation. The service is available on Android, iOS, web, and API.

Ramp Mileage Reimbursement tracks employee trips, calculates reimbursable distance, applies mileage rates, and routes claims for approval. Employees can record trips with live GPS, calculate routes through Google Maps, or enter mileage manually. The service can deduct commuting miles when required, and policies can require a memo or trip purpose and use multi-layer approvals; submitters cannot approve their own expenses. Approved reimbursements are paid by ACH or international wire, and Ramp says most arrive within three business days. Built-in local mileage rates are available for the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, France, Spain, Australia, Ireland, and Poland. Approved claims sync automatically to an accounting provider, with listed integrations including QuickBooks Online, Xero, NetSuite, Sage Intacct, and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. The product runs on web, iOS, and Android. Ramp offers a free plan for domestic reimbursements and a 30-day trial; paid plans start at $15/user/mo, plus a platform fee based on team size for Ramp Plus. The product is aimed at finance teams handling employee mileage within corporate spend.
