    The decision that matters

    Clearplan is purpose-built for repossession with published $97–$197/month packages; Towbook is general towing/roadside/impound software priced by call volume. Different primary workflows.

    Repossession company

    Clearplan's run lists, routing and DRN/RDN integrations are repo-specific; ask Towbook how much of a repo workflow it supports before treating it as an alternative.

    General towing operator

    Towbook covers motor clubs, private property, police and transport calls; Clearplan is not positioned for general towing dispatch.

    Compare the complete cost, not the starting price

    Buy for your primary workflow first. If you do both towing and repo, confirm whether either vendor genuinely covers the other workflow or whether you need two tools.

    Use the same job in both demonstrations

    1. Create a representative unit and repair, including mileage/engine hours where relevant, inspection photos and an estimate revision.
    2. Assign two technicians, issue an in-stock part, order a missing part and capture labor across more than one day.
    3. Obtain a sample customer authorization, complete an invoice and reconcile the payment or fleet statement without sending a live request.
    4. Export the completed history and an open repair. Confirm attachments, accounting totals, permissions and contract exit terms.

    Frequently asked

    Is Towbook better than Clearplan?

    It depends on your shop. Towbook (Towing dispatch software) and Clearplan (Repossession workflow management) serve different needs. Confirm current pricing and features with each vendor; Repairius does not verify third-party prices.

    Can I use Repairius alongside Towbook or Clearplan?

    You can keep other services while using Repairius. Repairius offers a free basic listing and website with booking requests; advanced management tools require the appropriate paid plan. This does not imply an integration with either vendor or guarantee inquiry volume.

    Can I replace both with one tool?

    It depends on what you use each one for. Repairius combines a free directory listing with booking requests and, on a paid plan, dispatch, estimates and invoicing. Some shops keep Towbook or Clearplan alongside Repairius — compare your current contracts before cancelling anything.
