The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Correlator3D the standard licence caps at 61 megapixel sensors, so an operator moving to a medium or large format camera has to buy a different and separately quoted licence rather than paying an upgrade fee.; Omnitracs built for commercial trucking; light-vehicle and service fleets find it heavier than needed
  • They diverge on capability: Correlator3D covers Aerial triangulation, Omnitracs covers Electronic logging.
  • 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.

Correlator3D

  • The standard licence caps at 61 megapixel sensors, so an operator moving to a medium or large format camera has to buy a different and separately quoted licence rather than paying an upgrade fee.
  • It is Windows desktop only with no cloud processing option, so throughput is bounded by the workstation and GPU you buy, and there is no way to burst capacity for one large job.
  • There is no collaboration layer, client portal or field application, so deliverable sharing, review and version control all have to be handled by other software.
  • The interface and workflow are built for photogrammetry specialists; an occasional drone operator will find the learning curve steeper than a consumer-oriented mapping package.
  • The perpetual licence includes only one year of support and updates, and staying current afterwards means paying maintenance, so the headline $5,900 is not the whole long-term cost.

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

Correlator3D: Can I still buy a perpetual licence?

Yes. $5,900 for a permanent licence and $6,400 for a permanent floating licence, each including a year of support and updates.

Omnitracs: What does Omnitracs cost?

Quoted per fleet with hardware, and not published.

Correlator3D: What limits the standard licence?

Sensor resolution, up to 61 megapixels. Medium format, large format and satellite imagery need separately priced licences.

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.

Correlator3D: Is there a cloud version?

No. Processing runs on your own Windows workstation. SimActive offers a data processing service as an alternative to buying the software.

Omnitracs: Is it just ELD?

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

Correlator3D: Does it handle satellite imagery?

Yes, under a separate satellite licence class quoted on request.
