Circuit is a popular route planning app for delivery drivers and small fleets. SortDrops is a newer, browser-based alternative built for GCC, India, Pakistan, and UK markets. Here's how they compare on the factors that matter most.
Circuit starts at $100+/month with per-driver pricing. SortDrops Team plan is $29/month flat for up to 20 drivers. For a 10-driver operation, SortDrops costs $29/month vs $100-200+/month for Circuit — a saving of $70-170/month.
SortDrops has a permanent free plan with 15 stops and 3 routes/day — no trial expiry. Circuit offers a trial but requires paid subscription for ongoing use.
SortDrops is a Progressive Web App — dispatchers and drivers both work from a browser link. Circuit requires app installation from the App Store or Google Play. For driver teams, eliminating app installation removes a major adoption barrier.
SortDrops is built for GCC, India, Pakistan, and UK address formats. OpenStreetMap coverage in these regions is comprehensive and actively maintained.
