Teletrac Navman alternatives for small fleets in Australia

Seven options, from software that needs no device to telematics that does, and the fleet each is for.

Teletrac Navman is built for transport operators: a GPS telematics device in every vehicle, electronic work diaries, heavy-vehicle compliance and a quote instead of a price. A small fleet looking for an alternative is usually looking for one of two things: a simpler, software-first way to keep the fleet's records, or a different telematics vendor with a published price or a lighter device. This list has both. Axlerun is on it and is marked as ours; the rest are described from their own published pages, checked on the date shown.

The short answer

For a fleet of 2 to 50 light vehicles that needs records rather than live tracking, Axlerun is the software-first alternative with no hardware and a published price. If you still need telematics, EROAD publishes a light-vehicle price, Linxio and Geotab sell devices by quote, and Powerfleet is the enterprise option. Simply Fleet and Fleetio are maintenance-led software without hardware.

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 hardware, minimum or 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?
