MapTrack vs Hilti ON!Track

MapTrack is purpose-built for heavy industry with GPS trackers (including ultra long-life battery units), 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources, per-asset cost tracking and inventory management - all vendor-neutral, hosted with its primary database in AWS Sydney and AS/NZS-aware templates you adapt. Hilti ON!Track is a tool-tracking platform from Hilti Group (CHF 6.3B revenue) that uses Hilti tracking hardware (AI T320 BLE Smart Tag, AI T400 GPS Geo tag, Vehicle and Heavy Equipment Gateways) and integrates with Trimble Viewpoint for job costing - so automated tracking runs on Hilti's own hardware ecosystem. MapTrack is one platform for every asset a field business runs: any brand of tool on QR, barcode or Data Matrix labels and Bluetooth tags, plus plant and vehicles on GPS trackers and AI dash cams, with check-out, bookings, test and tag rounds and maintenance on one record.

MapTrack also integrates with 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources, consolidating location data from multiple brands into a single platform. BLE beacons can be added for proximity detection inside sheds and laydown areas. Hilti ON!Track uses Hilti BLE tags and gateways for last-seen proximity on small tools, and does offer GPS for machinery and vehicles through the AI T400 Geo tag plus Vehicle and Heavy Equipment Gateways - within the Hilti hardware ecosystem. If you want real-time location across a mixed-brand fleet of excavators, trucks and generators from any source, MapTrack is the more open choice.

Which platform consolidates fleet telemetry from 150+ data sources?

MapTrack integrates with 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources, consolidating fleet data into one system. Hilti ON!Track offers telematics through Hilti gateways plus telematics partners in its marketplace (Trackunit, GeoDynamics and 123erfasst).

MapTrack integrates with 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources - engine hours, odometer, fuel consumption, fault codes and DTC alerts flow from multiple standalone systems into a single platform. This data powers automated maintenance triggers (e.g. service at 500 engine hours), geofence entry/exit alerts and fault-code-to-work-order workflows - replacing the need to log into multiple standalone GPS or telematics systems. Hilti ON!Track offers telematics through Hilti gateways plus telematics partners in its marketplace (Trackunit, GeoDynamics and 123erfasst) but does not consolidate data from 150+ third-party sources. For mixed-brand fleets of trucks, excavators or generators, MapTrack turns live machine data from any OEM into proactive maintenance.

Which tracks costs per asset with TCO reporting?

MapTrack tracks full cost of ownership per asset. Hilti ON!Track offers job costing via Viewpoint and basic asset cost reports on Pro and Enterprise; built-in TCO across all asset classes is not publicly documented.

MapTrack tracks the full cost of ownership per asset: purchase price, depreciation schedules, service and repair costs, hire and rental charges, fuel and operating expenses. Roll-up reports give you total cost of ownership (TCO) by asset, category, site or project. Hilti ON!Track integrates with Trimble Viewpoint Vista/Spectrum for job costing - strong if you already use Viewpoint - and its Pro and Enterprise tiers add basic asset cost reports by asset, jobsite or period, but a built-in depreciation engine and full TCO reporting across all asset classes are not publicly documented. If you need to answer 'what does this excavator actually cost us per hour?' MapTrack provides it out of the box.

Which is vendor-neutral vs hardware-locked?

MapTrack is vendor-neutral: use any compatible GPS, QR or OEM device. Hilti ON!Track tracks any brand in software, but automated tracking uses Hilti hardware (BLE tags, GPS Geo tags, gateways).

MapTrack is vendor-neutral - use QR codes, barcodes, GPS trackers from any compatible vendor, or ingest telematics data from 150+ data sources. You are not locked into one hardware ecosystem. Hilti ON!Track tracks any brand of tools and equipment in software, but automated tracking runs on Hilti hardware: BLE Smart Tags, AI T400 GPS Geo tags, Vehicle Gateways and Heavy Equipment Gateways (with tag detection also using the Trackunit network). If you want to avoid hardware lock-in, use mixed-brand tracking devices, or switch tracking methods as your fleet evolves, MapTrack gives you that flexibility. If you are standardising on Hilti tools and infrastructure, ON!Track integrates tightly with that ecosystem.

How do maintenance and work orders compare?

MapTrack is a unified tracking + CMMS platform with telemetry-driven triggers. Hilti ON!Track focuses on tool tracking and job costing, with service and preventative maintenance alerts on its paid tiers; work order depth is not publicly documented.

MapTrack is a unified tracking + CMMS platform: work orders, meter-based triggers driven by live telemetry from 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources, inspection-to-work-order escalation and planned maintenance schedules. Hilti ON!Track focuses on tool and equipment tracking with assignment, job costing (via Viewpoint) and telematics through Hilti gateways plus partners such as Trackunit. It documents service and preventative maintenance alerts, including engine-hour or distance-based alerts; the depth of its work order features is not publicly documented, so check it in a demo. If you need a single system for 'who has it, where it is, what it costs, and when it is due for service,' MapTrack is built for that.

Which offers inventory management alongside asset tracking?

MapTrack includes inventory management in the same platform as asset tracking, GPS and maintenance. Hilti ON!Track offers tool crib management and, on Pro and Enterprise, quantity items management with inventory levels, material locations, re-order alerts and consumption reports.

MapTrack includes inventory management - consumables, spare parts, materials and stock levels - alongside asset tracking, GPS, maintenance and cost tracking in a single platform. Teams can manage tool cribs, parts stores and site stock without a separate system. Hilti ON!Track supports tool crib management and assignment, and its Pro and Enterprise tiers add quantity items management with inventory levels, material locations, re-order alerts and consumption reports; a link from consumption to work orders is not publicly documented. If you want one platform for both assets and inventory, MapTrack covers both.

Which is better for compliance, inspections and offline mobile?

MapTrack keeps compliance attached to each asset with full offline support. Hilti ON!Track focuses on tool tracking; verify pre-start and offline capability.

MapTrack keeps compliance attached to each asset: pre-starts, inspections, certificates and evidence trails in one place for audits. The mobile-first app lets field teams complete pre-starts and inspections and record work-order results offline - critical on remote sites without connectivity. Hilti ON!Track provides a mobile app for tool tracking and assignment; verify pre-start inspection and offline capability in a demo. If your teams do pre-starts on excavators at 5 am with no signal, compare offline depth in a pilot.

Which is better: MapTrack or Hilti ON!Track?

MapTrack wins for teams that need vendor-neutral GPS tracking, fleet telemetry from 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources, per-asset cost tracking and a full asset lifecycle platform (tracking, maintenance, inventory, compliance, cost). Hilti ON!Track is a strong choice if you are standardising on Hilti hardware and need tight integration with Trimble Viewpoint for job costing.

Frequently asked questions: MapTrack vs Hilti ON!Track

Hilti ON!Track tracks any brand of tools and equipment in software (small tools to heavy equipment). However, automated tracking uses Hilti hardware (BLE Smart Tags, GPS Geo tags, gateways) plus the Trackunit network, and it integrates with Trimble Viewpoint for job costing. MapTrack is vendor-neutral: you can use QR, barcode, GPS trackers (including ultra long-life battery units) or telematics data from 150+ data sources without being locked into one hardware ecosystem. If you run a mixed-brand fleet or want flexibility in tracking hardware, MapTrack is the more open platform.

For small tools, Hilti ON!Track uses Hilti BLE tags and gateways for last-seen proximity tracking. For machinery and vehicles, Hilti does offer GPS via the AI T400 Geo tag plus Vehicle and Heavy Equipment Gateways. The difference is breadth: MapTrack integrates GPS trackers - including ultra long-life battery units - for real-time location on a map across job sites, BLE beacons for proximity detection in sheds and laydown areas, and 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources so you can consolidate fleet and asset data from any brand into one system, rather than Hilti hardware alone.

Hilti ON!Track offers telematics through Hilti gateways plus telematics partners in its marketplace (Trackunit, GeoDynamics and 123erfasst) but does not consolidate data from 150+ third-party data sources into one platform. MapTrack integrates with 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources to ingest engine hours, odometer, fuel consumption, fault codes and DTC alerts into a single system. This data powers automated maintenance triggers (e.g. service at 500 engine hours), geofence entry/exit alerts and fault-code-to-work-order workflows.

Hilti ON!Track focuses on tool tracking, assignment and job costing via Trimble Viewpoint integration, and its Pro and Enterprise tiers add basic asset cost reports by asset, jobsite or period; a built-in depreciation engine and full TCO reporting across all asset classes are not publicly documented. MapTrack tracks the full cost of ownership per asset: purchase price, depreciation schedules, service and repair costs, hire/rental charges and operating expenses. Roll-up reports give you total cost of ownership (TCO) by asset, category, site or project.

The ON!Track software tracks any brand, but automated tracking runs on Hilti hardware (gateways, BLE Smart Tags, GPS Geo tags), which is sold separately alongside free tiers (Connect and Ready) and Lite/Pro/Enterprise by quote. MapTrack uses asset-based pricing with unlimited users included - you pay for the assets you track, not per seat. MapTrack is hardware-neutral so you can use any compatible GPS tracker, QR code or barcode label. For larger fleets, compare total cost including hardware when evaluating both platforms.

Hilti ON!Track offers a mobile app; verify offline capability and sync behaviour in a demo. MapTrack is built mobile-first for field and office, with full capability on phone and tablet including offline mode - critical for remote construction and mining sites without connectivity. For field-heavy teams on remote sites, compare offline depth in a pilot for both.

Yes. MapTrack supports CSV and spreadsheet imports so you can migrate your asset register, service history and compliance records from Hilti ON!Track. You can continue using existing QR or barcode labels - MapTrack is hardware-neutral. The MapTrack onboarding team provides guided setup, data mapping and training for your crew. Most teams are operational within a week.

Yes. MapTrack works with QR, barcode and Data Matrix labels: scan them with the phone camera or a handheld Bluetooth or USB scanner, and MapTrack prints durable labels for harsh sites.

Yes. One work order can cover many assets, each with its own pass or fail, which suits test and tag, calibration and inspection rounds.

Yes. MapTrack runs preventive maintenance on time or meter triggers, with tiered service plans (for example 250, 500 and 1,000 hour services), work orders raised from meter readings, one work order across many assets with a pass or fail for each, parts by location and bin, and a full service history on every asset.

Yes. MapTrack rate cards set daily, weekly and monthly hire rates by asset category or individual asset, for dry, wet or standby hire, and record the hire cost when equipment comes back. Finance dashboards keep a cost ledger for every asset, location and person, with budget vs actual, depreciation and repair-or-replace guidance. Divisions give each division its own assets and team access, while account owners see across every division. Rate cards, finance and divisions are an add-on on the Pro and Enterprise plans.

Each asset and schedule in MapTrack gets a 0 to 100 maintenance health score with 12 months of memory, so a run of late or skipped services still counts after it’s cleared. The maintenance service board shows servicing across your assets, and due-soon emails reach the assigned person when a service falls due within 7 days.

Yes. Forms and pre-starts can be drafted with AI from a written description or an uploaded form, then reviewed and published. Completed inspections show recognised pass, fail and monitor colours, and a failed answer can raise a linked work order through a rule you set.

Yes. MapTrack works out each asset’s usage rate from its recent readings and estimates when the next meter service will fall due. It also flags meters whose readings are out of date, or whose estimated due date has passed without a new reading, so services don’t slip between readings.

Yes. MapTrack runs shared phones and tablets in workstation mode, with a personal four-digit PIN for each person, so every check is recorded against the right person. Labels scan with the device camera or a handheld Bluetooth or USB scanner, and check-out and return need a connection.

Yes. Snap a photo of an asset or part and MapTrack’s AI fills in its details for the person adding it to check and save.
