Fleet software total cost calculator

By ReWheel. Content reviewed .

Put every hardware, setup and recurring charge on one scope before you compare quotes. Enter your asset count, months and costs to see the one-time total, monthly cost, period total and effective monthly cost per asset.

Cost lines to list, each with an owner

Put every line in one table over the same period

  • Licence or subscription.
  • Hardware, including spares and replacement.
  • Installation and removal.
  • Connectivity and data plans.
  • Training and onboarding time.
  • Administration: the hours someone spends each month keeping records right.
  • Integration or data-cleaning work.
  • Exit: export, return of hardware and any early-termination charge.

Costs that show up late

  • Replacement hardware after the first failure or when the device life ends.
  • Administration hours that grow with vehicle count.
  • Data export on exit, and the cost of rebuilding reports elsewhere.

Before entering amounts

  • Use one currency for every amount; nothing is converted.
  • Enter zero only for a charge you know is included. Leave an unknown charge blank until the supplier confirms it.
  • Tax, financing, discounts and exit charges are not in the calculation. Budget exit charges separately.

Follow the formula

One-time total = assets × (hardware + installation per asset) + setup + training. Monthly recurring = assets × (software + connectivity + other recurring per asset) + fixed support. Period total = one-time total + months × monthly recurring. Effective monthly per asset = period total ÷ (months × assets).
