Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Fleet TMS at none against iDispatch's 6. Fleet TMS also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). iDispatch's advantage is ratings volume (74 vs 8) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
