GPS and Track vs. Samsara
Why “No Contract” Means Real Savings
If you’re shopping for fleet GPS tracking, you’ll quickly notice two very different business models. Enterprise players like Samsara sell subscriptions locked into multi-year contracts. GPS and Track sells you the hardware and service and lets you decide whether you ever pay again. Here’s how the two actually compare.
How Samsara Prices Its Service
Run the math on a small fleet and the numbers add up fast: total 3-year costs land somewhere between roughly $11,000 and $15,500 for that fleet, before shipping, installation, or add-ons. That’s a real financial commitment, and if you need to cancel early, you’re generally still on the hook for the remaining contract balance.
How GPS and Track Prices Its Service
GPS and Track takes the opposite approach. The GPS tracking devices include service with no monthly fees, no contracts, and no automatic billing. If your needs change or you sell a vehicle, you simply stop using the tracker. There’s no early-termination penalty because there was never a term to terminate.
That structure matters most when you look at cost. A monthly subscription model adds up quickly month after month, year after year. A one-time-fee model front-loads the cost once, and anything beyond that is optional. Over a typical multi year ownership window, GPS and Track’s price is very hard for an accumulating monthly bill to beat, especially when that monthly bill comes with a mandatory multi-year commitment attached.
The Bottom Line
For fleets, owner-operators, or businesses that just want reliable location tracking at a reasonable price, the math favors GPS and Track’s approach — no monthly fees, no contracts — means your total cost stays low while a monthly subscription competitor’s total cost keeps climbing every month you own the vehicle. Over a 2–3 year period, that gap in favor of the no monthly fee model only gets wider.
