The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Alpega coverage is strongly European, so a shipper with significant North American or Asian volume will need a second TMS and will lose the single-system benefit that justified the purchase.; Omnitracs built for commercial trucking; light-vehicle and service fleets find it heavier than needed
  • They diverge on capability: Alpega covers Modular TMS, Omnitracs covers Electronic logging.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

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

Alpega

  • Coverage is strongly European, so a shipper with significant North American or Asian volume will need a second TMS and will lose the single-system benefit that justified the purchase.
  • The group was assembled from acquisitions including Teleroute, Wtransnet, TenderEasy and inet, so modules differ in interface and data model and cross-module workflows are less joined up than the group branding implies.
  • The TMS and the freight exchanges are separately subscribed, so the combination that is the reason to choose Alpega costs two contracts rather than one.
  • Pricing is unpublished and typically volume based on shipments or transport orders, so a business whose freight volume grows faces a cost curve it cannot model in advance.
  • Freight exchange value depends entirely on carrier density on your specific lanes, and a shipper on thin or peripheral routes will find far less capacity than the headline carrier count suggests.

Omnitracs

  • Built for commercial trucking; light-vehicle and service fleets find it heavier than needed
  • Quote-only pricing with no published rates
  • The platform carries a long history and the interface shows it against newer competitors
  • In-cab hardware means installation and a multi-year commitment

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Alpega: Are the freight exchanges included with the TMS?

No. Teleroute, Wtransnet and 123cargo are separately subscribed products, even though they belong to the same group.

Omnitracs: What does Omnitracs cost?

Quoted per fleet with hardware, and not published.

Alpega: Does Alpega work outside Europe?

Its carrier network and regulatory coverage are built around European road freight. It operates in around 80 countries but the density that makes it useful is intra-European.

Omnitracs: Who is it for?

Commercial trucking, where hours-of-service compliance and DOT audit exposure are the driving concerns. Service fleets are usually better served elsewhere.

Alpega: Is pricing published?

No. TMS pricing is quoted by module and usually by shipment or transport order volume. Exchange subscriptions are quoted by user and country scope.

Omnitracs: Is it just ELD?

No. Electronic logging is central, but it also covers dispatch, routing and in-cab driver workflow.

Alpega: What happened to Teleroute and Wtransnet as brands?

Both continue to trade under their own names as Alpega freight exchanges, alongside 123cargo.
