The field, one by one

ServiceCore

The incumbent

The name most operators in this business already know. Built for exactly this industry, mature, and it covers a lot of ground. If you are a large, established shop with staff to run it, it is a serious option.

Where we are different: we built Sanilog for the operator who moves fast and answers their own phone. Month to month instead of a year up front, a price that scales down when your season does, unlimited users instead of paying per seat, and a driver app that works offline on a rural route. And we run our own business on it every day.

Routeware

Enterprise waste

Enterprise waste and fleet software, built for large haulers and municipalities. Powerful at that scale.

Where we are different: most portable sanitation operators do not need enterprise. It is heavy to set up and priced for scale you may not have. Sanilog is built for portable toilets, dumpsters, and septic, and you can be running it this week, on one truck, with no implementation project.

Trash Flow

Legacy desktop

It has been around a long time, and plenty of old-school haulers still run it. It handles billing and routing, and if it is what you know, it works.

Where we are different: it is desktop software from another era. Sanilog is cloud and mobile, it rides in the truck, works offline, and updates itself. No install, no server, no wondering which computer it is on.

Spreadsheets and whiteboards

The real default

Honestly, most operators are not comparing software at all. They are on spreadsheets, a whiteboard, and a lot of phone calls. It is free, and it is familiar.

Where we are different: it stops scaling the day you add a second truck or hit a seasonal rush. Sanilog gives you one place for units, clients, contracts, routes, and invoices, so you stop rebuilding the same spreadsheet and start seeing the whole operation on one screen.

When we're not the right fit

If you need deep integrations we do not have yet, or you are a large enterprise waste hauler, we are probably not your tool today. We would rather tell you that than sell you the wrong thing.
