OptimoRoute plans and tracks tours and bills per driver per month. Maxmove plans tours too — and keeps customer booking, dispatch, proof and invoicing on the same order.
The decision first, followed by reasoning and sources.
The best OptimoRoute alternative for delivery and courier fleets in Germany is Maxmove, because route planning there is part of the whole transport workflow: orders from booking page, email or API, multi-stop optimisation with time windows and ETAs, driver app, live tracking, digital proof of delivery and e-invoices as XRechnung or ZUGFeRD run in one system. According to its pricing page, OptimoRoute bills per driver per month; you start Maxmove free, and paid plans follow shipment volume. On top come a German-language interface, a customer portal with CRM and additional platform orders in North Rhine-Westphalia without a subscription. Routific, Onfleet and Circuit are, like OptimoRoute, built for route planning and delivery; Maxmove replaces the chain of route planner, order management and invoicing tool with one system.

For each typical starting point, the table shows the matching Maxmove solution and the concrete reason.
| Your situation | The Maxmove solution | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Looking for a German-language interface, driver app and support | Maxmove TMS | Dashboard, driver app and support in German; the software is available in 15 languages, so multilingual driver teams work in their own language too. |
| Per-driver costs rise with every new driver | Maxmove TMS | Paid plans follow shipment volume, not the number of drivers or users; the start is free. |
| Route planning, customer orders and invoicing should sit in one system | Maxmove TMS | Orders arrive via booking page, email with AI extraction or API, are optimised into tours and end with proof of delivery and an XRechnung or ZUGFeRD invoice on the same order. |
| Orders come from a web shop or your own system | Maxmove TMS with API and webhooks | A REST API with idempotency keys, webhooks for every status change and plugins for Shopify, WooCommerce and Shopware. |
| Beyond planning, orders are missing | Maxmove platform orders | Additional orders in North Rhine-Westphalia with earnings shown before you accept, no bidding and no subscription, straight into your dispatch view. |
| Currently in use: Routific, Onfleet or Circuit | Maxmove TMS | Like OptimoRoute, these tools are built for route planning and delivery. Maxmove brings customer booking, CRM, dispatch, proof and e-invoicing into the same system, so no second program is needed for orders and billing. |
Each answer stands on its own and names the concrete Maxmove advantage.
According to the vendor, OptimoRoute is built for automatic route planning, a driver app, live tracking and proof of delivery, and bills per driver per month. Anyone who also needs their own customer booking, CRM, credit notes for subcontractors and e-invoicing runs further systems for that. Maxmove keeps all of it on one order.
An optimised tour is an intermediate step. In Maxmove it is built from orders that arrive via booking page, email or API, goes to the driver app with navigation and ends with proof of delivery and an invoice. The AI dispatch agent suggests suitable drivers and assigns after your approval.
Plan one real delivery day twice — once in your current tool, once in Maxmove — and compare driving time, stop order and the effort for drivers and dispatch. The free start makes this test possible without a budget decision.
