Is there a difference in the history reports between Carfax.com and Autocheck.com?

Question

I am looking to get a history report on a vehicle, is there a difference in the information provided on a report from these two sites, of course other than the price, Carfax is a little higher at $24.99 for a single report
Thanks to all

Answer 1

I am employed at a New car Dealer.
I have used both Carfax & Autocheck
I have found errors with both but this is a rarity.

I actually prefer Autocheck because the report is easier to read, (better layout) & provides a little more information than Carfax.
Autocheck is a little cheaper, so I find it has more value for the money.

There is another site that offers a similar paid service, however I have no experience with it.
http://www.vin-check.net/
it appears to be priced about the same as Autocheck

Yes, Carfax has much more detail:

1) Carfax describes the services received at each service shop.

2) Carfax lists how many owners and the date and miles driven by each owner more easily for you to understand. Autocheck just lists the title changes and dates without doing any of the math for you.

3) Carfax checks more DMV's databases so it catches more unscrupulous crash cars that quickly get fixed and put on market. For example within the month carfax caught a quickflip frame damaged car yet autocheck's history came up clean without any accidents.
