The short version

  • Each has a real cost: AllData pricing is not published and requires contacting the vendor; Tekion the Internet Archive's capture of Tekion's homepage on 22 January 2021 stated the platform carries a 30-day cancellation notice rather than a long-term contract lock-in, and charges zero integration fees to OEM and ecosystem partners; no price figure was published, only 'Request Demo'.
  • They diverge on capability: AllData covers OEM repair procedures, Tekion covers Cloud-native DMS.
