Cartrack alternatives in the UAE (2026) - an honest, sourced shortlist

Cartrack is a legitimate, Asateel-listed tracking supplier in the UAE, so looking for alternatives is not about escaping a bad vendor; it is about doing what the regulator itself recommends, comparing several approved suppliers. This article describes Cartrack fairly from official sources, then lists five verifiable alternatives and explains where a profit layer fits.

Key takeaways

• Cartrack appears on the official Asateel approved OBU supplier list as Cartrack Technologies L.L.C., Business Bay, Dubai, with three approved devices (list status 21 April 2026).
• The same list is the best place to find alternatives: Location Solutions, Falcon Trackers, Samtech Middle East, En Route Technologies and Trakker Middle East all appear on it.
• The Integrated Transport Centre “strongly recommends transport companies to look at the entire list, obtain quotations from several suppliers, and compare their prices” (Asateel supplier list, Abu Dhabi Mobility, 2026).
• No vendor named here publishes a UAE price list as of July 2026; all quote per fleet.
• Fleetric is not a tracking supplier and not a Cartrack rival. Fleetric is a pre-launch fleet profit intelligence platform for GCC fleets that reads mandated tracking feeds and computes per-vehicle profit, including the feed a Cartrack device produces.

What does Cartrack verifiably offer in the UAE?

Cartrack’s verifiable UAE position rests on one regulator document and one vendor site. On the official Asateel approved OBU supplier list it appears as Cartrack Technologies L.L.C., Business Bay, Dubai, with three approved devices: Teltonika FMC130, Teltonika FMC230 and CTG3(910)2G4G EU (status 21 April 2026, Abu Dhabi Mobility). That listing is tier-one proof that Cartrack may supply tracking units under the Abu Dhabi mandate.

On its own UAE site, cartrackme.com, Cartrack describes GPS tracking, asset management, fuel monitoring, temperature monitoring and AI-powered cameras (vendor-reported, July 2026). Globally it is part of the Karooooo group. Two honest caveats: we found no Asateel or SIRA compliance claims on the cartrackme.com homepage itself, and no published UAE pricing as of July 2026. Neither is unusual; regional telematics pricing is quote-based across the board.

Why would a UAE fleet compare Cartrack alternatives at all?

Comparing alternatives is standard procurement here, not a verdict on Cartrack, and the regulator says so directly. The Asateel list carried 29 approved suppliers at its 21 April 2026 status date, and the Integrated Transport Centre “strongly recommends transport companies to look at the entire list, obtain quotations from several suppliers, and compare their prices.”

Practical reasons a fleet runs that comparison:

• Device fit. Approved device models differ per supplier; a supplier with a wider approved range may match your vehicle mix better.
• Emirate coverage. Some suppliers are based in Abu Dhabi where the Asateel mandate applies, others in Dubai; installation and support logistics follow geography.
• Quotes. With no published pricing anywhere, the only way to know the market rate is to collect several quotations, exactly as the ITC advises.
• Beyond the mandate. The mandate covers tracking, not profitability. Whether any supplier’s dashboard answers “which trucks make money” is a separate question no listing settles.

Which Cartrack alternatives are on the official Asateel list?

Five alternatives carry the same regulator-published proof Cartrack does: a named entry on the official Asateel approved OBU supplier list (status 21 April 2026). Where the listing is the only verified fact, we say so plainly rather than inventing feature claims.

• Location Solutions (Location Solutions Trading LLC OPC, Musaffah, Abu Dhabi). The strongest cross-GCC compliance story among the regionals: its own site reports TGA approval and WASL integration in Saudi Arabia and SIRA SecurePath certification in Dubai (vendor-reported, not independently verified).
• Falcon Trackers (listed as Zahoor Al Hira Trading L.L.C., Al Qusais, Dubai). Vendor-reported: founded 2012, almost 32,000 vehicles served (falcontrackers.com, July 2026).
• Samtech Middle East (Dubai Internet City). Eight approved device models on the list across Galileosky, Ruptela and Teltonika hardware, one of the longer approved ranges.
• En Route Technologies (Dubai Silicon Oasis). The list names separate contacts for Dubai and the Northern Emirates and for Abu Dhabi and Al Ain.
• Trakker Middle East (Mussafah, Abu Dhabi). Based in the mandate’s home emirate; beyond the listing itself we verified nothing further.

Do Cartrack or its alternatives publish UAE pricing?

No. As of July 2026 we found no published UAE price list for Cartrack or for any of the five alternatives above; every one of them quotes per fleet. That is worth knowing before you shortlist, because it means the comparison work is unavoidable: you will be collecting quotations either way, and the ITC’s advice to compare several suppliers is the realistic procurement path, not a formality.

The one pricing exception in this space is not a tracking supplier at all. Fleetric publishes its software tiers, AED 120 (Starter) and AED 95 (Pro) per truck per month, on its pricing page, which is possible precisely because it sells software on top of existing hardware rather than quoted hardware installations.

Is Fleetric a Cartrack alternative?

No, and it is more useful to be precise about why. Fleetric is a pre-launch fleet profit intelligence platform for GCC fleets that reads mandated tracking feeds and computes per-vehicle profit. Cartrack and the suppliers above put an approved device in the truck and run the mandated feed; Fleetric consumes that feed, allocates full costs and shows profit per truck, customer, project and site, in English and Arabic, in AED and SAR.

In practice the two decisions stack rather than compete:

• Mandate first. If your vehicles are in scope in Abu Dhabi, pick a supplier from the official list; that decision is regulated. See the Asateel compliance guide.
• Profit second. Whichever supplier you pick, the profit question stays open. Fleetric sits on the feed you already pay for, with no second device, and tracks document and operating-card expiry alongside per-truck profit so a coordinator can manage more vehicles without increasing administrative workload.
• Honest stage. Fleetric is pre-launch with no production customers yet; every claim on this site is dated and sourced for that reason.

If you are collecting Asateel quotes this quarter, that is the right moment to book a 20-minute demo and see what the feed you are about to buy can tell you about profit.

FAQ

Is Cartrack approved for Asateel in the UAE?

Yes. Cartrack appears on the official Asateel approved OBU supplier list as Cartrack Technologies L.L.C., Business Bay, Dubai, with three approved devices, Teltonika FMC130, Teltonika FMC230 and CTG3(910)2G4G EU (list status 21 April 2026, Abu Dhabi Mobility).

What are the main Cartrack alternatives in the UAE?

On the same official Asateel list you will find Location Solutions (Musaffah, Abu Dhabi), Falcon Trackers (listed as Zahoor Al Hira Trading L.L.C., Al Qusais, Dubai), Samtech Middle East (Dubai Internet City), En Route Technologies (Dubai Silicon Oasis) and Trakker Middle East (Mussafah, Abu Dhabi). All carry the same tier of regulator proof Cartrack does.

Does Cartrack publish UAE pricing?

No published UAE price list was found on Cartrack’s UAE site as of July 2026, and none of the alternatives named here publishes one either. The Integrated Transport Centre recommends obtaining quotations from several suppliers on the Asateel list and comparing prices.

Is Fleetric an alternative to Cartrack?

Not in the hardware sense. Cartrack supplies and runs approved tracking devices; Fleetric is a pre-launch fleet profit intelligence platform for GCC fleets that reads mandated tracking feeds and computes per-vehicle profit. A fleet using Cartrack hardware could run Fleetric on top of the feed it already produces.
