Spireon, Inc.
Spireon owns three distinct product lines — LoJack (stolen vehicle recovery), GoldStar (dealer and finance-focused GPS), and FleetLocate (fleet management) — and they are not reviewed the same way. LoJack's own app holds 4.
86 out of 5 across more than 93,000 App Store ratings. FleetLocate's flagship fleet app, Periscope, holds a strong 4.
76 across 2,258 ratings.
Set against that, BBB complaints describe a different pattern: billing continuing after cancellation requests, and customer service that's difficult to reach by phone. No pricing page exists anywhere in Spireon's navigation — every product routes to a quote request.
Rajat Gupta runs FleetOpsClub and writes its software reviews, comparisons and pricing pages. Every tool on the site is assessed against the vendor's own published documentation and pricing, and each pricing figure carries the date it was last verified so readers can judge how current it is. Where a vendor does not publish a price, the page says so rather than estimating one.

Vendor
Spireon, Inc.
Spireon publishes no pricing page for any product line. FleetLocate's own product page contains no dollar figures anywhere — no per-vehicle rate, no tier comparison, nothing beyond a demo-request path.
Third-party estimates circulating online range from roughly $15 to $50 per vehicle per month depending on tier, but none of that comes from Spireon directly.
This puts Spireon in the fully quote-gated category alongside most vendors in this segment — the difference is that Spireon doesn't even attempt a 'starting at' figure the way some competitors do on a page title or blog post.
| Plan | Price | What's included |
|---|---|---|
| FleetLocate (fleet management) | Not published — quote only, no pricing page exists | |
| GoldStar (dealer/finance GPS) | Not published — quote only | |
| LoJack (stolen vehicle recovery) | Not published — quote only |
Spireon publishes no price. Checked on September 30, 2026. See what the vendor shows Spireon shows no dollar figure on the FleetLocate product page; the only calls to action are "Book your demo today!" and "Request a Demo". There is still no pricing page in the site navigation for any Spireon line. Circulating per-vehicle ranges are third-party estimates, not Spireon's.
FleetLocate (fleet management), GoldStar (aimed at dealers and finance companies, with its own LoJack Go consumer-facing app), and LoJack (stolen vehicle recovery) are marketed as separate product lines with separate landing pages, and none of them link to a pricing page. A fleet buyer evaluating FleetLocate specifically has no public number to anchor a comparison to before requesting a quote.
LoJack's core app holds 4.86 out of 5 across 93,211 App Store ratings — an unusually large, credible sample.
GoldstarCMS sits at 4.82/5 (6,717 ratings) and LoJack Go at 4.
86/5 (35,756). FleetLocate Periscope, the main fleet-manager app, holds 4.
76/5 across 2,258 ratings — also strong. One Spireon app stands apart: FleetLocate Shift, built for hours-of-service/driver-status tracking, sits at 2.
5/5 — though on only 4 ratings, too small a sample to treat as a reliable signal on its own. Ask directly which specific app your drivers will use before assuming any one of these numbers describes your deployment.
Spireon is not one reputation, it's several, depending on which product you're evaluating. The apps themselves are genuinely well-built and well-reviewed at real scale — LoJack's rating alone is backed by a sample size most competitors in this profile set can't match. The documented friction is elsewhere: no published pricing anywhere, and a real pattern of billing and support complaints in BBB records. Get your specific FleetLocate quote and cancellation terms in writing, and don't assume LoJack's consumer-app reputation describes the fleet side of the business.
Spireon fits a fleet that wants a vendor with a genuinely large, well-corroborated track record on the consumer and dealer side of its business (LoJack, GoldStar) and is comfortable getting FleetLocate-specific pricing and cancellation terms in writing before signing, since none of it is published. It fits less well for a buyer who wants any public number to start a comparison from, or who has read the BBB complaint pattern and wants that resolved before committing.
The scale of Spireon's app ratings is genuinely unusual in this category — 93,211 ratings on LoJack alone is an order of magnitude larger than most competitor apps in this profile set, and it isn't propped up by one inflated listing: five separate Spireon apps each carry ratings above 4.6 with meaningful sample sizes. That's a real, corroborated signal about product quality on the consumer and dealer side of the business specifically.
Evaluate FleetLocate on its own terms rather than borrowing confidence from LoJack's strong consumer reputation — they are different products serving different buyers, reviewed by different audiences. Get the FleetLocate-specific rate, contract length, and cancellation process in writing, and ask a current fleet customer directly about the billing and support experience the BBB complaints describe, since that pattern doesn't show up in the app-store numbers at all.
This is the point in the evaluation where buyers should separate what sounds strong in the demo from what will still matter after implementation, reporting setup, and day-two administration are real.
These are the strengths most likely to keep Spireon in the running once the team starts comparing practical fit, not just headline features.
LoJack's app holds 4.86/5 across 93,211 ratings, GoldstarCMS 4.82/5 across 6,717, and LoJack Go 4.86/5 across 35,756 — sample sizes far larger than most competitors in this category, across three separate products rather than one inflated listing.
FleetLocate Periscope, the primary fleet-management app, holds 4.76/5 across 2,258 ratings — a real, credible sample specifically for the fleet side of the business, not just the consumer LoJack brand.
FleetLocate for fleet management, GoldStar for dealer and finance-company GPS and payment-assurance use cases, and LoJack for stolen vehicle recovery — a fleet with mixed needs (say, financed vehicles plus theft risk) can potentially consolidate under one vendor.
These are the points worth pressing in pricing calls, technical validation, and rollout planning before the team treats the product as a safe choice.
FleetLocate's product page has no dollar figures anywhere, and there is no pricing page in Spireon's site navigation for any of its three product lines. Third-party estimates ($15-$50/vehicle/month) circulate online, but none originate from Spireon directly.
Complaint patterns found via BBB records describe charges continuing after cancellation requests, and difficulty reaching a live representative by phone rather than voicemail. This pattern sits alongside the strong app-store ratings above — the app quality and the billing/support experience appear to be two different things worth evaluating separately.
FleetLocate Shift, built for hours-of-service tracking, sits at 2.5/5 — but on only 4 App Store ratings, which is too small a sample to draw a firm conclusion from. Ask specifically whether your deployment uses this app before assuming it matters, and don't extrapolate the number as if it were as reliable as Periscope's 2,258-rating sample.
Spireon's publicly posted Terms of Use covers website usage generally rather than a customer service agreement — no minimum term, cancellation notice window, or early-termination terms are published anywhere we could find. Get these in writing before signing.
FleetLocate is the commercial fleet management line — GPS tracking, trailer tracking (FleetLocate TrailerView), and driver-facing apps for scorecards and hours-of-service status. GoldStar is aimed at auto dealers and finance companies, built around vehicle recovery and remote payment-assurance use cases for financed vehicles, with its own consumer-facing LoJack Go app.
LoJack itself is the stolen-vehicle-recovery brand most consumers recognize, now part of the same parent company.
A fleet buyer specifically evaluating GPS tracking and compliance tools should focus on FleetLocate's own materials and pricing conversation — LoJack's much larger review base describes a different product and a different buyer.
There's no published price anywhere in Spireon's product lineup, so the quote conversation is where the real evaluation happens.
Get the FleetLocate-specific per-vehicle rate in writing — don't rely on third-party estimates, since none of them come from Spireon directly.
Ask for the minimum contract term and cancellation process in writing; no public service agreement with these terms could be found.
Confirm exactly which driver-facing app your fleet will use — Periscope, Shift, Scorecard, or TrailerView all serve different functions and are rated very differently.
Ask a current FleetLocate customer directly about billing accuracy and support responsiveness — the BBB complaint pattern describes issues the app-store ratings don't reflect.
Quick answers to the questions buyers usually ask once the category, software, or rollout details start getting more specific.
Spireon publishes no price for FleetLocate or any other product line — there is no pricing page anywhere in its site navigation. Third-party estimates suggest roughly $15-$50 per vehicle per month depending on tier, but none of that comes from Spireon directly. Get a specific quote in writing.
Yes — LoJack is one of Spireon's three product lines, alongside GoldStar (dealer/finance-focused GPS) and FleetLocate (fleet management). They're reviewed very differently: LoJack's app holds 4.86/5 across 93,211 ratings, while FleetLocate's main app holds a still-strong but smaller 4.76/5 across 2,258.
BBB records describe a pattern of billing continuing after cancellation requests and difficulty reaching a live customer service representative. This sits alongside strong app-store ratings for the products themselves, suggesting product quality and the billing/support experience are worth evaluating separately.
It depends on the deployment. FleetLocate Periscope (4.76/5, 2,258 ratings) is the main fleet-manager app. FleetLocate Shift, for hours-of-service tracking, rates much lower (2.5/5) but only on 4 ratings — too small a sample to treat as reliable. Confirm which specific app applies to your setup before signing.
