What is Hilti ON!Track?

Hilti ON!Track is Hilti Corporation's cloud-based asset and inventory management solution for construction. It tracks tools, equipment, supplies, consumables and PPE from warehouse to vehicles to jobsites. Small tools use the Hilti AI T320 BLE Smart Tag for last-seen proximity; machinery and vehicles can use the AI T400 GPS Geo tag, with the Vehicle Gateway (live vehicle location) and Heavy Equipment Gateway (plant telematics). Tag detection also uses the Trackunit network. The platform runs on iOS and Android (ON!Track 3 app) with a web portal.

ON!Track has documented customer outcomes: zero tool losses (OnSite Specialist Maintenance, using van gateways), £4M savings in two years (J Coffey Group, 5,000+ items and 125 gateways) and fast reporting at Laing O'Rourke (~2,000 assets). Its Trimble Viewpoint Vista/Spectrum integration via the ON!Track Unite marketplace enables direct job costing, employee sync and transfer forms for contractors standardised on Viewpoint. Tiers: Connect and Ready (free), Lite/Pro/Enterprise (paid, by quote); hardware sold separately.

Why teams look for a Hilti ON!Track alternative

Hilti ON!Track is a strong platform for Hilti-ecosystem customers. Teams look for alternatives when:

How MapTrack compares to Hilti ON!Track

Which is better for multi-brand tool tracking?

MapTrack is vendor-neutral. ON!Track tracks any brand in software but uses Hilti hardware.

MapTrack is fully vendor-neutral. It works with any brand of tools and equipment using QR labels, third-party BLE beacons, GPS trackers or OEM telematics data. You are not locked into a single hardware supplier. Hilti ON!Track's software also tracks any brand of equipment, but the automated tracking infrastructure (BLE Smart Tags, the AI T400 GPS Geo tag, Vehicle and Heavy Equipment Gateways) are Hilti products purchased separately, with tag detection also using the Trackunit network. For teams with a Hilti-centric tool fleet, this is a natural fit. For teams with mixed brands or who want hardware flexibility, MapTrack's vendor-neutral approach avoids the commitment to a single hardware ecosystem.

Which offers real-time GPS vs BLE last-seen?

MapTrack offers real-time GPS + BLE across any brand. ON!Track uses BLE last-seen for small tools and GPS for machinery and vehicles via the AI T400 Geo tag.

For small tools, Hilti ON!Track uses BLE Bluetooth tags and gateways. When a tool comes within range of a gateway (a Vehicle Gateway in a work vehicle, or a stationary gateway at a depot or site), the system records its 'last-seen' location. For machinery and vehicles, Hilti does offer GPS through the AI T400 Geo tag plus Vehicle and Heavy Equipment Gateways for live location and telematics. MapTrack adds native GPS tracker hardware, including ultra long-life battery units designed for construction assets, for continuous real-time location on a map across any brand, plus 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources for live engine hours, fault codes and odometer data from plant and fleet.

Which has reservations and asset planning?

MapTrack has built-in reservations. ON!Track's booking is for repairs; future job booking not confirmed.

MapTrack includes a reservations module and planning view to allocate assets to jobs, check availability and avoid double-booking. Teams can see which assets are reserved, when they are free and schedule in advance. Hilti ON!Track lets you allocate assets to employees and jobsites and has a 'book for repair' feature. A dedicated 'reserve this asset for a future job/time slot' feature and asset-availability planning view are not clearly confirmed in Hilti ON!Track's public documentation. If planning who uses what equipment and when is a core workflow, verify ON!Track's capability in a pilot.

Which has more transparent pricing?

MapTrack pricing is online and per-asset. Hilti ON!Track is quote-only; hardware separate.

MapTrack uses per-asset pricing with unlimited users. You can get a price for your asset count online before speaking to sales. Hardware options (QR labels, BLE tags, GPS trackers) are available without being bundled into the software price. Hilti ON!Track paid tiers (Lite, Pro, Enterprise) are quote-only; contact Hilti for pricing. Hardware is sold separately (e.g. BLE Smart Tags, the AI T400 GPS Geo tag, Vehicle and Heavy Equipment Gateways). For teams that want to evaluate total cost of ownership without a sales conversation first, MapTrack's transparent model is easier to budget.

Which has better telematics and OEM integration?

MapTrack integrates 150+ data sources. ON!Track uses Hilti gateways, the AI T400 Geo tag and Trimble Viewpoint.

Hilti ON!Track offers telematics for machinery and vehicles via its Vehicle and Heavy Equipment Gateways and the AI T400 GPS Geo tag, and the Trimble Viewpoint integration for job costing, employee sync and transfer forms. Strong for Viewpoint-standardised contractors. MapTrack integrates with 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources (Caterpillar, John Deere, Komatsu, Geotab, Samsara and more) ingesting engine hours, odometer, fuel consumption, fault codes and DTC alerts for plant and fleet maintenance triggers. MapTrack's broader integration set suits teams with diverse plant brands or who use telematics platforms other than Hilti gateways.

Which is better for compliance?

Both support compliance. MapTrack adds AI form builder and inspection-to-work-order escalation.

Hilti ON!Track supports safety certificates, maintenance dates and compliance monitoring with documents stored digitally on asset records. MapTrack keeps compliance attached to each asset: pre-starts, inspections, safety certificates and evidence trails, with failed checks automatically triggering work orders. The AI form builder lets you digitise existing paper inspection forms by uploading a PDF or describing the checks needed. Both platforms handle compliance; MapTrack adds the AI-powered form creation and the automatic inspection-to-maintenance escalation loop.

Which is better for maintenance?

Both support maintenance. MapTrack adds OEM telemetry-driven triggers for plant and fleet.

Hilti ON!Track supports scheduled maintenance, service history and triggering repairs via its maintenance module. For machinery, the Heavy Equipment Gateway brings telematics data into the platform. MapTrack provides unified CMMS for the full asset mix - work orders triggered by live OEM telemetry (engine hours, odometer, fault codes from 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources), pre-start failures and scheduled intervals. For mixed-brand plant and fleet with diverse OEM telematics, MapTrack's broader integration set gives wider maintenance automation coverage.

Total cost of ownership: what to include

When comparing MapTrack and Hilti ON!Track, factor in hardware costs alongside the software subscription:

Software licensing

  • MapTrack: per-asset pricing with unlimited users, online pricing
  • Hilti ON!Track: free tiers (Connect, Ready); paid tiers (Lite, Pro, Enterprise) are quote-only
  • Factor in total assets tracked, not just software tier

Hardware investment

  • Hilti tracking hardware sold separately: AI T320 BLE Smart Tag, AI T400 GPS Geo tag
  • Vehicle Gateway and Heavy Equipment Gateway costs
  • Ongoing tag replacement for damaged or lost tags
  • MapTrack: QR labels (low cost), BLE and GPS from any vendor

Vendor lock-in costs

  • Switching cost if you move away from Hilti hardware ecosystem
  • Non-Hilti hardware not compatible with ON!Track gateways
  • MapTrack: vendor-neutral, switch hardware without changing software

The hidden cost of hardware lock-in

Hilti ON!Track software tracks any brand, but its automated tracking runs on Hilti hardware: the AI T320 BLE Smart Tag for small tools, the AI T400 GPS Geo tag for machinery and vehicles, plus Vehicle and Heavy Equipment Gateways. This hardware is sold separately and priced by quote.

That hardware works within the Hilti ON!Track ecosystem (tag detection also uses the Trackunit network). If you want to switch providers, the hardware investment does not transfer. Teams with large tag deployments (hundreds or thousands of tags plus gateways) face significant sunk cost when evaluating alternatives.

  • AI T320 BLE Smart Tag: quote-based pricing, Hilti-only compatibility
  • AI T400 GPS Geo tag: quote-based, GPS for machinery and vehicles
  • Vehicle Gateway and Heavy Equipment Gateway: quote-based, plant and vehicle telematics
  • None of this hardware transfers to other platforms

MapTrack works with vendor-neutral hardware. QR labels, third-party BLE beacons and GPS trackers from any manufacturer. No lock-in to a single hardware supplier.

Frequently asked questions: Hilti ON!Track vs MapTrack

Hilti ON!Track uses quote-only pricing for paid tiers (Lite, Pro, Enterprise) with hardware (BLE tags, gateways) sold separately. MapTrack uses per-asset pricing with unlimited users - transparent pricing you can get online for your asset count. If you want predictable, per-asset pricing without hardware bundle negotiations, MapTrack is straightforward to evaluate.

Hilti ON!Track's software tracks any brand of tools and equipment. However, the tracking hardware - the AI T320 BLE Smart Tag, AI T400 GPS Geo tag, Vehicle Gateway and Heavy Equipment Gateway - are Hilti products sold separately, with tag detection also using the Trackunit network. If you want to use your own QR labels, third-party GPS trackers or BLE beacons, MapTrack is a vendor-neutral alternative that works with any hardware combination.

For small tools, Hilti ON!Track uses BLE (Bluetooth) tags and gateways for 'last-seen' location - the system shows where an asset was when it last came within range of a gateway (e.g. a Vehicle Gateway in a work vehicle or a stationary gateway at a depot). For machinery and vehicles, Hilti offers GPS via the AI T400 Geo tag plus Vehicle and Heavy Equipment Gateways for live location. MapTrack offers BLE plus native GPS trackers for real-time continuous location on a map across any brand, including ultra long-life battery units, and 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources for plant and fleet with live engine hours and fault codes.

Hilti ON!Track lets you allocate assets to employees and jobsites and has a 'book for repair' feature. A dedicated 'reserve this asset for a future job/time slot' feature and availability planning view are not clearly confirmed in public documentation. Verify in a pilot if reservations are a key requirement. MapTrack has built-in reservations and a planning view to avoid double-booking.

Hilti ON!Track offers deep integration with Trimble Viewpoint Vista and Spectrum via the ON!Track Unite API for job costing, employee sync and transfer forms. MapTrack has a public API for integration with ERP and project management systems. If you are standardised on Trimble Viewpoint and want the tightest off-the-shelf integration, verify MapTrack's Viewpoint integration in a demo. If you use other project management or ERP tools, MapTrack's API and 150+ integrations may suit your stack better.

Export your asset register from Hilti ON!Track as CSV and upload into MapTrack. Our onboarding team maps your categories, sites and custom fields. You can also use AI-assisted asset creation from a photo to bulk-add assets that are not yet in your register. Most teams are operational within a week with guided setup and training included.

Hilti ON!Track's offline capability is not clearly confirmed in public documentation. Verify in a pilot. MapTrack is built mobile-first with offline support standard on all plans. Field teams can scan, assign, complete forms and submit work orders without connectivity, syncing automatically when back online.

Hilti ON!Track is best for contractors already committed to the Hilti ecosystem who want single-vendor simplicity: Hilti hardware (BLE tags, gateways) plus Hilti software and support. It offers real customer outcomes - zero tool losses (OnSite Specialist Maintenance), £4M savings in two years (J Coffey Group, 5,000+ items), fast reporting at Laing O'Rourke, and managed implementation (on-site tagging, training, data upload). If you use Trimble Viewpoint Vista or Spectrum, the ON!Track Unite integration provides direct job costing and transfer forms.

MapTrack offers AI-assisted asset creation - snap a photo of an asset and MapTrack suggests asset details including name, category and specification fields. This speeds up initial setup significantly, especially when onboarding hundreds of tools and equipment items. The AI form builder also lets you create inspection checklists by uploading an existing PDF or describing what you need.

Contractors with tools from Hilti, Milwaukee, Makita, DeWalt and other brands need a vendor-neutral platform. MapTrack tracks any brand using QR labels, BLE beacons, GPS trackers or OEM telematics from any source. It covers tools, equipment, plant and fleet in one register with reservations, pre-starts, compliance and maintenance. ON!Track works well inside the Hilti ecosystem but its hardware is Hilti-only.
