The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Agrivi no public pricing information disclosed on vendor website; Nofence everything depends on mobile network coverage, so a farm in a signal shadow cannot change boundaries, receive escape alerts or rely on the fence at all, and no amount of spending fixes that.
  • They diverge on capability: Agrivi covers Production planning, Nofence covers Virtual paddocks.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Agrivi

  • No public pricing information disclosed on vendor website
  • Customers must book a meeting with sales team to discuss pricing
  • No pricing tiers, plan names, or trial option details available

Nofence

  • Everything depends on mobile network coverage, so a farm in a signal shadow cannot change boundaries, receive escape alerts or rely on the fence at all, and no amount of spending fixes that.
  • Collar purchase is a real up-front barrier at roughly $349 a head for cattle, so fencing a 200 cow herd is a five-figure hardware outlay before the first subscription renewal.
  • Battery life depends on daylight and on how often the animal challenges the boundary; a busy animal in a Nordic or British winter runs the collar down faster than the headline figures suggest.
  • Virtual fencing is restricted or unaccepted in some jurisdictions and by some welfare and organic certification schemes, which can rule the product out on eligibility grounds regardless of cost.
  • It is a fencing product first, so herd health, rumination and reproduction monitoring are thin compared with dairy-focused collar systems, and a dairy will still need separate heat detection.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Agrivi: How is Agrivi priced?

Agrivi does not publish pricing details publicly. Organizations interested in the platform must book a meeting with the Agrivi sales team to discuss pricing tailored to their specific agricultural operation needs.

Source
Nofence: Do I need towers or a base station?

No. Nofence collars connect to the mobile network directly, which is the main structural difference from tower-based virtual fencing and removes the largest install cost.

Agrivi: Is there a free trial available for Agrivi?

Agrivi does not disclose trial or evaluation options on their public website. Customers must contact the sales team directly to inquire about trial access or platform evaluation capabilities.

Source
Nofence: What does the subscription cost after year one?

Roughly $45 per collar per year, dropping to about $35 for herds of 100 or more. Monthly options are around $6.50 and $4.50 per collar.

Nofence: Is the first year of subscription really included?

Yes, twelve months of subscription come with each collar purchase, so the first renewal bill arrives a year after install.

Nofence: Will it work for sheep?

Yes, with the smaller collar designed for sheep and goats, though horned and small-framed animals need care with fit.
