The short version

  • Only OneSoil has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Case IH AFS Connect coverage of non-Case IH machinery is thin, so a mixed-colour fleet ends up running two portals and reconciling the data by hand or through a third-party platform.; OneSoil no price, tier or minimum is published; enterprise access requires scheduling a demo and the only self-serve entry point is a free demo app
  • They diverge on capability: Case IH AFS Connect covers Machine telemetry, OneSoil covers Satellite field monitoring.
  • 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.

Case IH AFS Connect

  • Coverage of non-Case IH machinery is thin, so a mixed-colour fleet ends up running two portals and reconciling the data by hand or through a third-party platform.
  • The agronomic side is weaker than software-first platforms: field records, input tracking and compliance reporting are shallower than Agworld or Conservis and most serious growers export to something else.
  • The entry cost is hardware, not software; a Pro 1200 display and receiver retrofit runs into five figures per machine, which is the real barrier for anyone hoping to add the platform to an older tractor.
  • Connectivity Included only applies to qualifying machines from October 2024 onward, so a farm with a five-year-old fleet still faces a per-machine dealer activation fee and older modems may not be eligible at all.
  • Dealer dependency is total: activations, subscription changes and most troubleshooting route through the dealer rather than a self-service portal, which makes response times a function of your local dealership rather than CNH.

OneSoil

  • No price, tier or minimum is published; enterprise access requires scheduling a demo and the only self-serve entry point is a free demo app
  • Field monitoring is satellite based, so the platform provides no in-field sensor or soil measurement of its own

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Case IH AFS Connect: Is AFS Connect the same thing as FieldOps?

FieldOps is the rebuilt CNH portal and app that AFS Connect accounts have been migrating into. The underlying machine connectivity is the same; the branding and interface changed.

OneSoil: How much does OneSoil cost?

OneSoil does not publish pricing on its website. The platform offers a free trial at app.onesoil.ai or a demo can be scheduled through their contact form.

Source
Case IH AFS Connect: Do I still pay an annual subscription?

Not on qualifying machines built and purchased from 1 October 2024, where connectivity is included. Older machines with a compatible modem can be activated through a dealer for a one-time fee.

OneSoil: What pricing model does OneSoil use?

OneSoil's pricing model is not disclosed on their public website. Contact [email protected] or schedule a demo to learn about pricing and subscription options.

Source
Case IH AFS Connect: Can I use it with John Deere or New Holland machines in the same fleet?

Not natively in any useful way. New Holland shares CNH infrastructure but sits in its own portal, and Deere data has to come in through API sharing or a third-party farm management platform.

Case IH AFS Connect: What does it cost to add to a used tractor?

The subscription may be cheap or free, but the display, receiver and modem retrofit are the cost, and those are quoted per machine by the dealer into five figures.
