The short version

  • Each has a real cost: AssetWorks pricing is entirely unpublished and reportedly often includes ancillary fees beyond the headline licence or subscription cost, making total cost of ownership hard to estimate before a formal quote.; Leica Infinity leica publishes no pricing at all and sells through dealers, so identical firms in different regions pay different rates for the same modules and cannot benchmark a quote.
  • They diverge on capability: AssetWorks covers Fleet lifecycle tracking, Leica Infinity covers Multi-sensor project.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

What people use each for

The jobs each tool is most often brought in to do.

Where each one falls short

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

AssetWorks

  • Pricing is entirely unpublished and reportedly often includes ancillary fees beyond the headline licence or subscription cost, making total cost of ownership hard to estimate before a formal quote.
  • Being owned by Constellation Software, known for acquiring and holding software businesses with limited reinvestment pressure, can mean slower feature innovation compared with venture-backed competitors racing to add AI and modern UX.
  • The platform is explicitly built and marketed around public-sector procurement and workflow needs, so a private commercial fleet may find it less tailored to their process than a fleet-first competitor.
  • Multi-year public-sector contracts reduce flexibility to switch providers even if requirements or the competitive landscape change during the term.
  • Choosing between perpetual licence and SaaS subscription is itself a significant decision with different long-term cost profiles, and neither option pricing is published to compare in advance.

Leica Infinity

  • Leica publishes no pricing at all and sells through dealers, so identical firms in different regions pay different rates for the same modules and cannot benchmark a quote.
  • It is modular, which means the advertised capability list is not what you get: sensor and processing modules are licensed separately and the useful configuration costs considerably more than the entry one.
  • Third-party instrument data is supported but always second-class; a mixed Leica and Trimble fleet will have one manufacturer’s raw data going through a lossier import path.
  • Windows only, with no macOS, Linux or browser option, which is a hard constraint for organisations moving field and office work to tablets or cloud desktops.
  • Perpetual licences require an ongoing customer care contract to receive updates and support, so the perpetual option saves less over five years than it first appears.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

AssetWorks: Who owns AssetWorks?

Volaris Group, a division of Constellation Software, which acquires and holds vertical-market software businesses long term rather than growing and reselling them.

Leica Infinity: Is Leica Infinity available as a perpetual licence?

Yes. Leica sells Infinity both as a subscription and as a perpetual licence, though updates on a perpetual licence require an active customer care contract.

AssetWorks: Is AssetWorks only for government fleets?

It is primarily built and marketed for public sector buyers, though private fleets can also use it; government-specific features like competitive group purchasing access are a key differentiator.

Leica Infinity: How much does it cost?

Leica does not publish prices. Infinity is quoted per module through authorised dealers.

AssetWorks: Perpetual licence or SaaS?

Both options exist, but neither is priced publicly, so a buyer needs a quote to compare the two structures directly.

Leica Infinity: Does it work with non-Leica instruments?

It imports common third-party and standard formats, but Leica raw data is the first-class path. Expect reduced fidelity with competing raw formats.

Leica Infinity: Is there a free version?

No, only a 30-day trial.

Leica Infinity: Does it replace Cyclone for scanning?

No. Infinity handles scan data in a survey context; heavy registration and modelling work still belongs in Leica Cyclone.
