The short answer
Viper Express LLC has the stronger current audit profile

Start with the right kind of score
An audit score summarizes evidence. Customer ratings describe reviews. They use different scales and are not interchangeable.

Public customer ratings below are out of 5; BBB ratings use the source’s own scale. “Not established” means the available record does not establish that fact. Read the methodology.

How to use this comparison
Choose based on your shipment—not a headline score alone
The score is a useful starting point, but price certainty, vehicle type, pickup urgency, and the quality of the assigned carrier matter too. We compare audited signals instead of selling rank positions, then link to the underlying broker reports so you can verify the evidence before you request quotes.
