I've been using the Netcorp EWD and it's been excellent. The app is easy to use, reliable, and makes managing work diary compliance simple. It's great to see a free system that still delivers professional features and support for drivers across Australia. Highly recommend it to anyone needing a dependable Electronic Work Diary. Great work Netcorp!

The Netcorp EWD App works great, it's simple no guess work, calculations and locations in kilometres and time are all logged for you. Safety nets in place in the form of warnings and alarms for required breaks 1/2hr-15min-5mins and a count down warning make it incredibly easy to stay compliant. I highly recommend the Netcorp EWD for any one who wants a no stress digital NHVR log book that is incredibly easy to utilise.

Such a great product. So Glad that I don't have to lug my work diary around anymore with it all in my phone. Very easy to use and makes it easy to know my hours without sitting there trying to work it out in paper.

We have rolled out NetCorps EWD to our 15 drivers. Its incredibly easy to setup and use. It is as advertised 100% free and any technical issues iv had iv been table to call the team and discuss (ps its always a user error hahaha) as a record keeper its simple and easy to use the backend. Saves time effort and a HEAP of space to store yellow pages!

As a professional heavy vehicle driver, I find Netcorp EWD is very detailed and easy to use. Much easier than using a large and cumbersome paper Work Diary to record my driving hours.

FAQ

The questions we get asked most.

Have one we haven't answered? Get in touch.

Still comparing options? Read our EWD guides on NHVR rules, paper vs electronic, and switching.

How long is it free for?

Forever. No "ifs" or "buts".

How can you give it away for free?

Netcorp is a telematics company that genuinely cares about road safety. While our fellow providers spend their marketing budgets on social media campaigns, we prefer to do something actually good with ours. Our reputation and responsibility to the heavy vehicle industry goes beyond a commercial relationship.

Why have we done this?

A directive from our CEO Anthony La Malfa, who values road safety as a survivor of a road incident. We realise the impact fatigue-related tragedies have on drivers and road users. This is Netcorp's way of giving back to the industry we value.

Is it a cheap and nasty version of anything else?

No. Try it for yourself. We're an IT company with over 25 years industry experience in software development for the heavy vehicle industry. We have invested years building an NHVR compliant platform — it has gone through the same approval process as every other approved provider.

Are you going to keep developing new features?

Absolutely. We're already planning a stack of new features to help with fleet compliance, and best of all, they'll also be free.

Will you ever use or sell my data?

Never. We're ISO 9001 / 27001 certified. Our systems have been through internationally recognised quality and security assurance. We are strictly prohibited from selling or commercialising user information.
