Frequently asked questions
Why is Geotab pricing so inconsistent?
Geotab sells only through resellers (Geotab-authorized partners), not direct. Each reseller sets their own pricing and contract terms — the same GO9 device + Regulatory plan can range $22–$45/mo depending on who you buy from.
Does Geotab include ELD in the base plan?
No. The Base tier is GPS-only. You need Regulatory or higher for HOS + ELD compliance. Small fleets often get sold into Base and then upsold when DOT inspection issues surface.
What's the total Geotab cost per truck per month?
Real all-in cost: $25–$45 (Regulatory tier) plus $6–$10 for the cellular data plan = $31–$55 per truck per month. Plus $150–$250 upfront hardware unless subsidized.
Is Geotab better than Motive or Samsara?
For enterprise fleets that need custom integrations, Geotab's open API is strong. For small fleets that just need DOT-compliant HOS/DVIR/IFTA, all three (Geotab, Motive, Samsara) are overkill and overpriced compared to ELD HUB at $15/mo.
Can I switch Geotab resellers without buying new hardware?
Sometimes — the GO9 device is Geotab-standard, but resellers often 'lock' devices to their account. You may need re-provisioning or new hardware to switch. Ask before signing.
