The short version

  • Each has a real cost: MineRP minerp.com 301 redirects to epiroc.com's mine planning product line, confirming MineRP was absorbed into Epiroc; the product is no longer sold as an independently branded platform and buyers must now evaluate it inside Epiroc's mining portfolio.; Trimble Mining trimble's mining technology page (trimble.com/construction/mining) publishes no pricing for any of its named mining products; every product and solution link on the page routes through a Contact Us action rather than a figure.
  • They diverge on capability: MineRP covers Resource planning, Trimble Mining covers Fleet management.
