The honest half

Where it falls short

Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about FleetMon.

  • Service discontinued in January 2024 and fully phased out with transition to MarineTraffic
  • Free tier coverage was limited compared to premium plans requiring subscription fees
  • Data gaps in regions with poor terrestrial AIS infrastructure before satellite coverage was added
