    Hi all,

    I need to get an ELD next month and would like some recommendations on which one is easy to use. I live in Toronto so if its a device I have to pickup, something closer would be great.

    I purchased Big Road for one year, did not end up using because I stayed on one lane all year long. Heard Big Road isnt good for carriers operation in Canada and US.

    Thanks

    I use the Blue Ink Bit ELD. It's basic with no additional subscription fees after purchase and the customer service is top notch.

    I'd second this. I use, and set the Transflo ELD system up for my company and all our drivers, and based on the fact there is no fees after purchase alone it's worth it

    Be wary of KeepTruckin— do not rely on their IFTA reports as they are innacurrate

    I use Omnitrac. Expensive but it works well and not much hassle. It’s wired in vs Bluetooth always loosing connection and throwing everything off.

    Something to consider with these elds through your phone or tablet. When a officer asks to see your ELD and you hand Them your phone, you are essentially giving the consent to search your phone or tablet. Food for thought.
    I use omnitracs IVG terminal. Simple one cable hook up and easy to use
