["Most GPS tracking companies do not choose their platform. They inherit it.\nYou start importing a device brand, and the brand\u2019s own platform comes bundled or heavily discounted. Or you deploy an open-source server because it is free. Either way, the platform arrives as a consequence of a hardware decision rather than as a business decision \u2014 and years later it is the thing constraining your growth.\nThis article is written for GPS companies, hardware distributors and telematics resellers currently running on hardware-vendor platforms or self-managed open-source servers, and evaluating a properly white-labelled commercial alternative such as Fleeto.","The three platform situations resellers usually find themselves in\nSituation 1 \u2014 You are on a hardware vendor\u2019s platform\nThe platform is subsidised because the vendor\u2019s business is selling devices. That creates two structural problems.\nFirst, your platform is tied to their hardware. The moment you want to import a different brand \u2014 for margin, availability, feature or reliability reasons \u2014 you either cannot, or you run two platforms and two support processes.\nSecond, your branding is limited by design. The hardware vendor has no commercial interest in helping you build an independent brand; they want their ecosystem visible. Your white labelling stops at a logo, and your customer eventually discovers the vendor.","Situation 2 \u2014 You are running an open-source server\nFree licensing is genuinely attractive, and open-source tracking servers are capable pieces of software. But the licence fee is the smallest part of the cost.\nWhat you actually take on: server administration, uptime responsibility, security patching, database scaling, device protocol maintenance as firmware changes, feature development for anything the community has not built, mobile app development and app store maintenance, and a permanent dependency on whichever engineer understands your deployment. If that person leaves, you have a business-critical system nobody can maintain.\nOpen source also rarely gives you the commercial features that let you charge premium subscriptions \u2014 fuel analytics, driver scorecards, dispatch and proof of delivery, toll automation, invoicing, AI. You end up competing on price because your product is basic.\nSituation 3 \u2014 You are on a per-unit commercial platform\nSolid software, competent support, and a fee that grows exactly as fast as you do \u2014 permanently capping your margin rate and your enterprise value, with no equity accruing to you.","What a properly white-labelled commercial platform changes\nComplete brand ownership\nWith Fleeto, every screen, report, invoice and email your customer sees carries your logo and your domain. You receive a branded web platform on a custom domain plus fully branded iOS and Android mobile applications published under your identity. Your customers never see the name Fleeto.\nThe driver application is branded to you as well, works offline when coverage drops, and installs natively on Android and iOS.\nThis is what separates a tracking company from a device reseller. A customer who believes the platform is yours does not evaluate the platform separately at renewal.\nHardware independence\nThis is the decisive difference from a hardware-vendor platform. Fleeto supports multiple branded IoT and GPS device families, integrated at protocol level \u2014 including Teltonika FMB and FMC series over Codec 8 and Codec 8E via TCP/UDP, plus BLE sensor ecosystems for fuel, temperature and humidity.\nAnd critically: new device brands and models are integrated on request, to your requirements. Your procurement strategy becomes a commercial decision about margin and availability, not a constraint imposed by your software.\nFor a distributor carrying multiple brands, this consolidates your entire portfolio onto one platform, one support process and one customer experience.","Engineering you do not have to hire\nWhere open source hands you the maintenance burden, a commercial licence hands it back. Royex maintains the codebase, ships security patches, tracks device firmware changes, scales the architecture, and maintains the mobile applications in both app stores.\nTo be explicit about the licensing model, since it differs from open source in an important way: Fleeto is a licence to use the platform, not a source code transfer. You brand and operate it; We develop and maintain it. That is the trade \u2014 you give up code ownership and you get an engineering team you do not pay salaries for.\nCommercial features that justify premium pricing\nTracking core \u2014 live map (Leaflet or Google Maps), trip playback at 1x, 2x, 3x and 5x, geofencing with polygon, circle and corridor shapes, group-based vehicle organisation, per-vehicle mini dashboards, route history by date range, concurrent operation at 2,000\u002B vehicles.\nAlerts and notifications \u2014 customer-defined rules per vehicle or fleet-wide on speed threshold, idle time, crash and harsh driving events, fuel level, temperature and ignition, plus geofence entry, exit and pass, delivered by in-system alert, SMS and email to up to five recipients.\nFuel management \u2014 consumption analytics, BLE fuel sensor support, refuel and drain event detection, fuel theft identification.\nMaintenance and vehicle health \u2014 service scheduling, OBD diagnostics, health monitoring, maintenance-due alerting.\nDriver behaviour \u2014 scorecards for harsh braking, acceleration and cornering, trip itinerary detail, Arabic-language driver reporting.\nCargo and cold chain monitoring \u2014 BLE temperature and humidity sensors for reefer, food distribution and pharmaceutical fleets.\nToll automation \u2014 Salik and Darb detection derived automatically from GPS position, with no manual entry or monthly statement reconciliation.\nDispatch and last-mile delivery \u2014 live operations board, multi-stop route assignment, proof of delivery capture.\nFinance \u2014 expense tracking, branded invoice generation, exports to QuickBooks, Zoho and Xero.\nAI agents \u2014 Robotic Eye, a fleet assistant queried in plain English or Arabic; AI Doctor, predicting maintenance failures before breakdown; AI Route Planner, optimising multi-stop routes against traffic, vehicle type and availability; plus Live Route Monitor, Speeding Alert AI, Idle Time Reducer and Maintenance Due Alerter.\nAn open-source deployment will not give you this feature set without years of development. A hardware-vendor platform will not give you it under your brand.","Two ways to license Fleeto\nSelf-hosted, fixed annual licence\nFleeto installed and configured on your own server infrastructure under a fixed annual licence fee. Your cost stops scaling with unit count, and data residency in your own jurisdiction qualifies you for government, defence, utility, municipal and banking tenders that exclude foreign-hosted platforms.\nIf you are currently self-hosting open source, this is a familiar operating model with the engineering burden removed.\nRoyex-hosted, per vehicle per month\nNo setup cost. No minimum commitment. Fully branded platform and branded mobile apps included. Wholesale pricing, with your retail price and margin entirely yours.\nIf you are currently on a hardware-vendor platform, this is the lowest-friction way to test an independent brand without touching your infrastructure.","Operating without the vendor in the loop\nFleeto\u2019s three-tier account hierarchy gives you genuine independence. Super Admin holds full platform control, billing plan configuration and dealer creation. Dealer/Reseller creates and manages end-customer accounts, handles billing and payments, blocks and unblocks customers and assigns rights. End Customer tracks vehicles and assets, views reports and alerts, monitors drivers and manages their own units and users. Rights inherit downward and never exceed the parent.\nYou onboard, provision, suspend, bill and support your own customers directly.\nCustomisation: the capability neither alternative offers\nAn open-source community will not build your municipality\u2019s report format. A hardware vendor will not build a module that helps you sell a competitor\u2019s device.\nWe undertake customisation and modification of Fleeto to client requirements \u2014 bespoke reports for specific tenders, additional modules for verticals such as school transport, waste collection or cold chain, market-specific workflows, third-party and ERP integrations, and new device support.\nA low-risk evaluation path\nPilot two or three devices \u2014 ideally from different brands in your portfolio \u2014 to validate protocol decoding and data accuracy.\nCompare reports against what your best customer or largest tender actually demands.\nPublish branded apps and a custom domain to see how the brand feels.\nRun a small customer cohort in parallel with your existing platform.\nMigrate in batches, newest and least complex accounts first.\nChoose your model \u2014 hosted per-vehicle or self-hosted annual licence \u2014 based on the volume you have proven.\nBecause the hosted plan has no setup cost and no minimum commitment, most of this evaluation costs time rather than money.","Frequently Asked Questions\nWhy look for a Tracksolid or Protrack alternative? Hardware-vendor platforms tie your software to their devices and limit genuine white labelling, because their commercial interest is device sales and ecosystem visibility rather than your independent brand.\nIs a commercial platform better than an open-source tracking server? It depends on what you value. Open source has no licence fee but transfers all engineering, security, scaling, protocol maintenance and mobile app work to you, and typically lacks the premium commercial features that justify higher subscriptions. A commercial licence returns that burden to the vendor.\nDo I get source code with Fleeto? No. Fleeto is a licence to use the platform \u2014 self-hosted on your server under an annual licence fee, or Royex-hosted per vehicle per month. We maintain the codebase and delivers updates, patches and new modules.\nCan Fleeto handle multiple GPS device brands at once? Yes. That is a core design point \u2014 multiple branded IoT and GPS families including Teltonika FMB/FMC over Codec 8/8E and BLE sensors, with new devices integrated on request.\nCan I self-host if I already run my own servers? Yes, and if you currently self-host open source the operating model will feel familiar, minus the maintenance responsibility.\nWill my customers know which platform I use? No. Your domain, your branding on every screen, report, invoice and email, and mobile apps published under your name.\nWhat if I need a feature the platform does not have? Royex provides customisation and modification \u2014 bespoke reports, new modules, market-specific workflows, integrations and additional device support.","About Fleeto \u2014 why GPS companies trust us\n\nGrowing a GPS tracking business should mean gaining more customers and revenue\u2014not watching technology costs and operational complexity rise with every new vehicle.
