Mastering Azuga
★ Fleet GPS Trackers · Azuga Compared
What Azuga is built around, what to compare on any platform, and when Azuga is the right choice for your fleet.
API Signal installs Azuga, Geotab and many other platforms, and we may receive a referral fee from Azuga when a fleet signs up with Azuga through us. This page shows where Azuga fits and what to compare when you shop for any fleet platform.
How we use review scores
On G2, Azuga holds a 4.7 overall rating. That is on about 200 reviews, so we treat it as a sign of how Azuga users feel and not as a ranking against platforms with more reviews.
| What to look at | Azuga | Ask any platform |
|---|---|---|
| Plans and price | Three published per-vehicle plans, $25 to $35 a month. The camera is an add-on at about $42 to $50. | Which plan carries the feature you need, and what the camera and ELD cost on top. |
| Install | Plug-in OBD-II, JBus, 2-wire and 3-wire hardwired. | Which device goes in which vehicle, and who installs it. |
| Driver safety | Scores, rewards, coaching, SafetyCam Pro and Plus. | Whether video, alerts and coaching are in the plan or extra. |
| Assets | Solar, long-life and rechargeable asset trackers, plus Bluetooth beacons. | How often an asset reports and how long the battery lasts. |
| Hours of service | An ELD add-on sold separately from the base plans. | Which ELD hardware and plan apply. |
| Integrations | Over 100 integrations and a developer API, per Azuga. | Which of your own tools connect today. |
Using only Azuga's published list prices, ten vehicles on BasicFleet is $250 a month, and ten on CompleteFleet is $350 a month. Add the SafetyCam at about $42 to $50 per vehicle and the same ten vehicles run roughly $670 to $850 a month. That is simple addition of published prices, not an Azuga quote, so ask Azuga for the real number for your fleet.
Count your vehicles, list what each one has to do all day, and pick the plan that covers it. A service van that needs location and driver scores may sit on a different plan than a truck that needs video, so ask Azuga how plans are assigned.
Whatever platform you choose, the install is where a tracker either becomes part of the vehicle or becomes something that gets pulled out later. On hardwired work we prove constant, ignition and ground with a meter before anything is tied down, and Azuga itself says a loose ground causes power problems on its cameras. Our install guide shows how each Azuga device goes in and how to prove it works.
We install Geotab and many other platforms, so the install side is the same whichever one you pick. Our Geotab guide covers Geotab in the same detail this guide covers Azuga.
Count your vehicles, list what each one needs to do, and pick the plan that covers it. Then ask Azuga for the current plan terms.
