Honest Assessment

When GPS Trackit is genuinely the better choice

We believe in transparent comparisons. Here are the scenarios where GPS Trackit has a real edge.

360-degree dashcams built-in: integrated multi-angle video at no extra hardware cost.

Fuel card controls: direct integration for spend limits and unauthorized use prevention.

Flexible contract options: monthly plans available for budget-conscious fleets.

If none of these apply to your fleet, Traxelio keeps pricing and setup terms transparent, so the tradeoff is easier to evaluate.

Migration

How to Switch from GPS Trackit to Traxelio

Complexity: Easy: export your fleet data, add your trackers to Traxelio, invite your team.

Fleet data migration from an older telematics system into Traxelio

Move the fleet data first.

Export the data, check the hardware, then set up the team before canceling the old contract.

Step 1

Export your fleet data

Download your vehicle list, driver roster, and historical reports from GPS Trackit before canceling.

Step 2

Check hardware compatibility

Traxelio supports 2,351+ GPS tracker models. Your existing devices may work as-is. If not, order a compatible Traxelio tracker during setup; hardware is separate from the monthly plan.

Step 3

Validate the setup path

Add your vehicles and trackers, confirm reporting, and review the setup plan before canceling your existing service.

Step 4

Migrate your team

Invite drivers and managers, configure alerts and geo-zones, and replicate your existing workflows in the Traxelio dashboard.

Step 5

Cancel your old subscription

Once your team is set up and vehicles are reporting in Traxelio, cancel your GPS Trackit account. Check your contract terms for notice periods.
