How MapTrack and ToolSense compare on features

Which is better for GPS asset tracking?

MapTrack offers GPS trackers (including ultra long-life battery units) and integrates with 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources. ToolSense offers IoT-based tracking with its own GPS trackers and BLE tags, plus direct links to the major construction OEM clouds.

MapTrack supports GPS trackers - including ultra long-life battery units that run for years without charging - so you get real-time location on a map for plant, vehicles and high-value equipment across job sites. MapTrack also integrates with 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources, consolidating location data from multiple sources into a single platform. Bluetooth tags can be added to smaller gear for proximity detection inside sheds and laydown areas, where a nearby gateway tracker updates their location. ToolSense offers QR and IoT-based tracking (GPS, runtime) with its own trackers and tags, and connects directly to the major construction OEM clouds (Caterpillar, Komatsu, Liebherr, Volvo, JCB, Hitachi, Bobcat, Doosan, John Deere and more); fleet telematics and fuel-card sources are not publicly documented, against MapTrack’s 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources. If knowing where your assets are in real time across many OEM brands matters, this is the core difference.

Which platform consolidates fleet telemetry from 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources?

MapTrack integrates with 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources. ToolSense connects to the major construction OEM clouds and 20+ cleaning OEM clouds; fleet telematics and fuel-card sources are not publicly documented.

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. ToolSense offers IoT-based telemetry (runtime, GPS) from its own hardware and connects directly to the major construction OEM clouds (Caterpillar, Komatsu, Liebherr, Volvo, JCB, Hitachi, Bobcat, Doosan, John Deere and more), bringing in hour meter, location, fault codes and utilisation, plus 20+ cleaning OEM clouds; fleet telematics and fuel-card sources are not publicly documented. For mixed fleets with equipment from many manufacturers, 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 with TCO reporting. ToolSense now advertises a per-machine TCO record too; budget vs actual and hire rate cards (a MapTrack Pro and Enterprise add-on) are 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. ToolSense’s construction page now advertises a per-machine TCO record (acquisition, depreciation, fuel, maintenance, repairs, transport and insurance) and automatic cost-per-site assignment from hour meter, GPS, IoT or QR data. What still differs: MapTrack’s finance dashboards add budget vs actual, and its rate cards record the hire cost when equipment comes back (both a Pro and Enterprise add-on); neither is publicly documented by ToolSense. If you need to answer “what does this excavator actually cost us per hour?” MapTrack provides it out of the box.

Which is purpose-built for heavy industry?

MapTrack is designed for construction, civil, mining and facilities. ToolSense is a broader asset operations platform for manufacturing, facilities and construction.

MapTrack is designed for construction, civil, mining, oil & gas, facilities and field services - industries where assets are mobile, crews rotate, and compliance is non-negotiable. Workflows like pre-start inspections, site transfers, plant compliance registers and job-site geofencing are first-class features, not afterthoughts. ToolSense is a broader asset operations and CMMS platform used in manufacturing, logistics, construction and facility management (with customers like ISS and SPIE), and its construction solution says it runs “hundreds of construction yards”, from European tier-1 contractors to specialist subcontractors, with machine management, dispatching, workshop tickets, OEM telematics and statutory safety checks. For AU/NZ heavy industry the difference is local fit: MapTrack has AU/NZ onshore support and a Sydney-hosted primary database, while ToolSense hosts data in the EU by default, with other regions on request.

How do maintenance and work orders compare?

MapTrack is a unified tracking + CMMS platform with telemetry-driven triggers from 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources. ToolSense is a dedicated CMMS with work orders and scheduling.

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. ToolSense is a dedicated CMMS with work orders, equipment scheduling and assignment. Both are capable maintenance platforms - the difference is MapTrack’s depth of telemetry ingestion from 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources powering automated triggers, plus integrated cost tracking and inventory in the same system.

Which offers inventory management alongside asset tracking?

MapTrack includes inventory management in the same platform as asset tracking, GPS and maintenance. ToolSense focuses on asset operations and CMMS, with a parts inventory add-on for spare parts and consumables.

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. ToolSense focuses on asset operations, work orders and CMMS, and offers a parts inventory add-on: spare parts and consumables issued to tickets, with stock value, min/max thresholds and notifications. 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 for remote sites. ToolSense offers inspections and procedures, and an offline mode that is enabled per account and switched on before each offline session.

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. ToolSense offers inspections and procedures with mobile apps, and its help centre documents an offline mode that ToolSense must first enable for the account, which each user then switches on before every offline session. If your teams do pre-starts on excavators at 5 am with no signal, compare offline depth and sync behaviour in a pilot for both platforms.

Which is better: MapTrack or ToolSense?

MapTrack wins for heavy industry teams managing plant, fleet and equipment across job sites. GPS tracking (with ultra long-life battery units), 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources, per-asset cost tracking and inventory are built in, not bolted on. ToolSense is a strong choice for European teams in manufacturing, facilities and logistics that need asset operations, CMMS and ERP integration (SAP, Oracle, Dynamics 365).

Frequently asked questions: MapTrack vs ToolSense

ToolSense is a European-focused cloud-based asset operations and CMMS platform used in manufacturing, logistics, construction and facility management with customers like ISS and SPIE. MapTrack is headquartered in Australia and purpose-built for heavy industry - construction, civil, mining and facilities - with GPS trackers (including ultra long-life battery units), 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources in MapTrack's integration directory, per-asset cost tracking, inventory management and pre-start inspections. If your priority is plant, equipment and fleet across job sites with AU/NZ support and GPS fleet telemetry, MapTrack is the stronger fit.

ToolSense offers QR and IoT-based tracking (GPS, runtime) with its own trackers and tags, and connects directly to the major construction OEM clouds (e.g. Caterpillar, Komatsu, Volvo); fleet telematics and fuel-card sources and a total integration count are not publicly documented. MapTrack integrates with GPS trackers - including ultra long-life battery units - for real-time asset location on a map across job sites. MapTrack also connects 150+ telematics, fleet and fuel-card data sources in its integration directory so you can consolidate fleet and asset data into one system.

ToolSense lists 20+ cleaning OEM clouds and direct links to the major construction OEM clouds (Caterpillar, Komatsu, Liebherr, Volvo, JCB, Hitachi, Bobcat, Doosan, John Deere and more) for hour meter, location, fault codes and utilisation; fleet telematics and fuel-card sources and a total integration count are not publicly documented, so a like-for-like count is hard to make. 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.

Yes. ToolSense’s construction page advertises a per-machine TCO record covering acquisition, depreciation, fuel, maintenance, repairs, transport and insurance, with automatic cost-per-site assignment from hour meter, GPS, IoT or QR data; budget vs actual and hire rate cards 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.

ToolSense prices by Hub: you pick modules such as MaintainHub, RoboHub or CarHub, the price follows the number of assets, robots, vehicles or machines in them, and every operation gets a tailored quote rather than a fixed list price. MapTrack uses asset-based pricing with unlimited users included - you pay for the assets you track, not per seat. Both offer free trials. Compare total cost at your asset count and team size.

ToolSense’s help centre documents an offline mode: ToolSense must first enable it for the account, and each user switches it on in the app before going offline, then again before every later offline session. Its construction page says the app then works fully offline for QR scans, inspections, checklists and problem reports. 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.

MapTrack supports CSV and spreadsheet imports so you can migrate your asset register, service history and compliance records from ToolSense. 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. 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.

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.
