MapTrack vs SafetyCulture

Trusted by construction, mining and field service teams

TL;DR -- MapTrack vs SafetyCulture: MapTrack is purpose-built for heavy industry (construction, civil, mining, facilities) with GPS trackers (including ultra long-life battery units), integrations with 140+ OEM telematics and GPS vendors, geofencing, per-asset cost tracking, inventory management and CMMS in one platform. SafetyCulture is an inspection- and training-first operations platform (iAuditor heritage, 10,000+ templates, 85,000+ organisations) with an Assets pillar that includes pre-starts, work orders and telematics; per-seat pricing (Free up to 10 users, Premium from $24/seat/month annual, Enterprise custom). MapTrack consolidates fleet data from multiple standalone systems into one platform -- feeding live telemetry (engine hours, odometer, fault codes) directly into work orders and preventive maintenance schedules; SafetyCulture offers automated maintenance on Premium but does not consolidate 140+ OEM vendor data. MapTrack includes per-asset cost tracking (purchase, depreciation, service, hire and operating costs), reservations, planning and inventory. Asset-based pricing with unlimited users. Choose MapTrack for plant, equipment and fleet across job sites; choose SafetyCulture if inspections, safety checklists and training are the primary focus.

How MapTrack and SafetyCulture compare on features

MapTrack supports CSV and spreadsheet imports so you can migrate your asset register, service history and compliance records from SafetyCulture. The MapTrack onboarding team provides guided setup, data mapping and training for your crew. Most teams are operational within a week.

Is SafetyCulture (iAuditor) an asset tracking platform or an inspection tool?

SafetyCulture is an inspection- and training-first operations platform (iAuditor heritage) with an Assets pillar that includes pre-starts, work orders and telematics. It is widely used for safety checklists, audits and training (10,000+ templates, 85,000+ organisations). MapTrack is purpose-built for heavy industry -- construction, civil, mining and facilities -- with GPS tracking (including ultra long-life battery trackers), integrations with 140+ OEM telematics and GPS vendors, geofencing, per-asset cost tracking, inventory management and CMMS in one platform. If your priority is plant, equipment and fleet across job sites, MapTrack is the stronger fit for asset-first operations.

Does SafetyCulture provide GPS hardware for real-time asset location?

SafetyCulture offers telematics through its Assets pillar but does not provide dedicated GPS tracker hardware or integrate with 140+ OEM GPS vendors. MapTrack integrates with GPS trackers -- including ultra long-life battery units -- for real-time asset location on a map across job sites. BLE beacons can also be used for proximity detection in sheds and laydown areas. MapTrack also integrates with 140+ OEM telematics and GPS vendors so you can consolidate fleet and asset data into one system.

Can SafetyCulture pull live engine data from 140+ equipment brands?

SafetyCulture offers automated maintenance and telematics on its Premium tier, but does not consolidate data from 140+ OEM vendors into one system. MapTrack integrates with 140+ OEM telematics and GPS vendors 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 -- replacing multiple standalone systems with one platform.

Does SafetyCulture track asset depreciation and total cost of ownership?

SafetyCulture does not provide built-in per-asset cost tracking, depreciation engines or TCO reporting -- its focus is inspections, audits and safety workflows. 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.

How do SafetyCulture per-seat costs compare with MapTrack per-asset pricing?

MapTrack uses asset-based pricing with unlimited users included -- you pay for the assets you track, not per seat. SafetyCulture uses per-seat pricing: Free tier (up to 10 users), Premium from $24/seat/month (annual) or $29 monthly, Enterprise custom. For large field teams, MapTrack's unlimited-user model can significantly reduce your per-user cost compared to SafetyCulture's per-seat model.

Do both SafetyCulture and MapTrack work offline for field crews?

Both platforms are mobile-first. MapTrack offers full capability on phone and tablet including offline mode -- critical for remote construction and mining sites without connectivity. SafetyCulture also supports offline for inspections, actions and assets with sync. For field-heavy teams, verify offline depth and sync behaviour in a pilot for both.

Can I keep using SafetyCulture for inspections and add MapTrack for asset tracking?

Yes. Some teams use SafetyCulture for inspection checklists and training alongside MapTrack for GPS tracking, cost tracking, maintenance and inventory. MapTrack supports CSV and spreadsheet imports so you can migrate your asset register if you consolidate, or run both platforms in parallel. The MapTrack onboarding team provides guided setup and training. Most teams are operational within a week.
