Fleetio alternatives for Australian small businesses

Seven options, from a free logbook app to full telematics, and the fleet each one is actually for.

People look for a Fleetio alternative for a few reasons its own pricing page makes plain: the higher tiers are billed annually only, the rates are quoted for a five-asset plan band in an unnamed currency, and nothing on the site speaks to Australian rules like FBT logbooks or state rego. The right alternative depends on what you were using Fleetio for. If it was maintenance, the answer is a maintenance tool. If it was a place to keep the fleet's records straight, the answer is something built for the size of fleet you run and the country you run it in. Axlerun is on this list and is marked as ours; the rest are described from their own published pages.

The short answer

For an Australian business with 2 to 50 vehicles, Axlerun is the alternative built around FBT logbooks, rego and CTP, free for three vehicles. Simply Fleet is the cheaper maintenance-led option, Whip Around leads on inspections, Driversnote and GOFAR cover a single driver or car, and LBM Fleet and Teletrac Navman are telematics platforms for larger fleets.

How this list was chosen

  1. 1Fleet size: does the product publish who it is for, and does that include a fleet under 50 vehicles?
  2. 2Price: is a per-vehicle price published, in what currency, and with what minimum or contract term?
  3. 3Hardware: does it work from a phone, or does something have to be installed in each vehicle?
  4. 4Australian compliance: does its own site mention FBT logbooks, ATO export, or state rego and CTP?
