The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Fleet Complete because most contracts are sold through a carrier, the commercial relationship, the service levels and the renewal date belong to the carrier, so a pricing dispute or a support escalation goes through a reseller who did not build the software.; Quartix video telematics is not part of the core product, so any fleet that decides it needs camera evidence after an incident has to bring in a second vendor and a second subscription.
  • They diverge on capability: Fleet Complete covers Vehicle tracking, Quartix covers Live tracking.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

  • A small fleet whose insurer offers a discount for driving style monitoring but who does not need cameras or compliance toolingnot Fleet Complete

Where each one falls short

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

Fleet Complete

  • Because most contracts are sold through a carrier, the commercial relationship, the service levels and the renewal date belong to the carrier, so a pricing dispute or a support escalation goes through a reseller who did not build the software.
  • Hardware is bundled into the subscription over a multi-year term, so a fleet that shrinks mid-contract keeps paying for units that are sitting in a store cupboard unless it negotiated a downsizing clause up front.
  • The product line was assembled by acquisition, so hours of service, European tracking and the core platform originated as separate products, leaving overlapping apps, duplicate logins and features that exist in one region but not another.
  • The third-party integration ecosystem is far smaller than the marketplaces run by Geotab or Samsara, so bespoke connections to a maintenance or payroll system usually mean building against the API yourself.
  • The web console and reporting look and behave like software designed a decade ago, and administrators who have used a newer platform will find the reporting builder slow and the exports rigid.

Quartix

  • Video telematics is not part of the core product, so any fleet that decides it needs camera evidence after an incident has to bring in a second vendor and a second subscription.
  • There is no maintenance, work order or parts management, so servicing schedules stay in whatever spreadsheet or garage system the fleet already runs.
  • US hours of service and wider DOT compliance are not the focus, which rules Quartix out for regulated interstate commercial operations.
  • The standard tracker is hardwired rather than a plug-in device, so installation means booking vehicles in, which adds cost and downtime that no-contract plug-in competitors avoid.
  • The API and integration list are short, so feeding tracking data into payroll, job costing or an ERP tends to mean scheduled exports rather than a supported connector.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Fleet Complete: Do I buy Fleet Complete directly or through my mobile operator?

Both are possible, but the majority of North American customers buy through AT&T or Telus. Check which entity the contract is with, because it determines your support path, your billing cycle and your renewal date.

Quartix: Why is Quartix cheaper than the big platforms?

Because it does less. There is no camera ecosystem, no compliance suite and no marketplace to fund. If you only need tracking, you are not subsidising features you will not use.

Fleet Complete: What happens to the hardware if I cancel?

Devices supplied as part of a subsidised subscription are normally recovered or charged for on early termination. Ask for the exact clause before signing, because it is where the real cost of leaving sits.

Quartix: Do I have to sign for three years?

No. Shorter terms are offered, priced higher per month than the longer options. The rates are published, so the trade-off is visible before you talk to anyone.

Fleet Complete: Is it a fit for a fleet of five vans?

It will work, but small fleets get a better deal from vendors that publish pricing and sell month to month. Fleet Complete pricing improves with volume and a carrier relationship.

Quartix: Is the hardware mine?

The tracking unit is supplied as part of the subscription rather than sold to you. Check the return and replacement terms if you plan to leave or dispose of vehicles.
