Personal blog on early retirement, tradelines, and analytics projects. I write about what I learn as I am learning it.
Onfleet is one of the few routing and delivery platforms that actually publishes its pricing, which I respect. But the number itself, $599 a month to start, before you’ve routed a single stop, is exactly why people go looking for an onfleet alternative. I build optimization software for a living, and the free tool below solves the same routing math without a monthly minimum.
Si alguna vez intentaste armar una ruta de reparto en Google Maps, ya conoces el problema: al llegar a la parada número diez, el botón de “Agregar destino” desaparece. Necesitas hacer 25 entregas y Google te deja planear 10. Llevo más de veinte años construyendo modelos de optimización de rutas para empresas, y en este artículo te muestro cómo hacer una ruta con más de 10 paradas en Google Maps — gratis, sin instalar nada y sin pagar una suscripción.

I spent twenty-plus years building vehicle routing models for companies that paid serious money for them, so when I went looking at RouteXL alternatives recently, I wasn’t shopping — I was checking out the neighborhood. RouteXL is probably the best-known free multi-stop route planner on the internet, and for good reason: paste in your addresses, get them back in a sensible order, free up to 20 stops. But 20 stops is exactly where a lot of real delivery days start, and that’s where the free tier ends. This post is an honest tour of what’s out there — including the free VRP tool I built and run myself — and which one fits which kind of routing problem.
