The short version

  • Only Climate FieldView has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Climate FieldView the Plus plan starts at $649 per year and is billed annually; Teralytic the company is reported at around six employees, so if it stops trading the buried probes become inert hardware, which is the single biggest risk in a multi-year soil sensing deployment.
  • They diverge on capability: Climate FieldView covers Real-time data collection, Teralytic covers Wireless NPK sensing.
  • 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.

Climate FieldView

  • The Plus plan starts at $649 per year and is billed annually
  • The free Basic plan lists only Online Support and a Data Inbox as its included features
  • Collecting in-cab data requires buying the FieldView Drive hardware separately
  • The vendor states the plan content is subject to change and will be updated regularly

Teralytic

  • The company is reported at around six employees, so if it stops trading the buried probes become inert hardware, which is the single biggest risk in a multi-year soil sensing deployment.
  • No current pricing is published and reported figures have moved between roughly 300 and 500 US dollars per probe per year, so a buyer cannot model the cost of a hundred-probe deployment without a quote.
  • The subscription is mandatory for the probe to report at all, so the up-front hardware payment buys nothing durable and a lapsed account means a field full of dead instruments.
  • In-field NPK sensing is scientifically contested and readings need interpretation against soil type and calibration, so agronomists will not treat the numbers as interchangeable with a lab test and many will insist on both.
  • Spatial coverage is the unsolved problem: a probe measures one point, soil varies over metres, and covering a field properly multiplies both the hardware and the annual subscription by the number of zones you care about.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Climate FieldView: How much does Climate FieldView cost?

Climate FieldView does not publish pricing on its main website. The company directs customers to visit their pricing page or contact their support team for personalized plan details.

Source
Teralytic: Can I buy the probe without a subscription?

No. The probe reports through Teralytic’s network into its cloud, and without an active subscription it does not deliver data.

Climate FieldView: What kind of plans does Climate FieldView offer?

The website mentions 'Personalized Plans' but does not specify plan names, tiers, or pricing structures on the publicly accessible content.

Source
Teralytic: Does it replace lab soil tests?

No. It gives continuous in-season trend data. Most agronomists will still want lab results for absolute nutrient values and for compliance records.

Climate FieldView: Is there customer support included?

Yes, Climate FieldView mentions offering 'Full Support' with its plans, but specific support details and how they vary by plan are not disclosed.

Source
Teralytic: How much does it cost?

Teralytic does not publish current pricing. Reported figures have ranged from roughly 300 to 500 US dollars per probe per year including hardware and connectivity.

Climate FieldView: How do I get a pricing quote?

Click the 'Find a Plan' button on the Climate FieldView homepage, or contact their support team directly to discuss personalized pricing for your agricultural operation.

Source
Teralytic: How many probes does a field need?

That depends on soil variability. One probe represents one point, so a field with several distinct soil zones needs one per zone to be meaningful.
