Transflo (Pegasus TransTech)
Transflo's own knowledge base states that Transflo-branded ELD devices are no longer available for new purchases. New orders ship with Geotab on the faceplate.
That single fact reframes the whole evaluation: you are buying Geotab hardware with a Transflo software and workflow layer on top, and the question is whether that layer is worth buying it through Transflo.
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.

Transflo (Pegasus TransTech)
Transflo publishes no ELD rate anywhere. The product pages route to a demo request, and Capterra records the vendor declining to supply a figure.
That is common in this category — roughly three quarters of vendors publish nothing — but it means every number you find about Transflo online came from somewhere other than Transflo.
Two circulating figures are worth naming so you do not repeat them. Transflo's knowledge base shows $60.
00 per month on the registration screen and states directly beneath it that the price shown is only an example. And the $28 to $31 a month with a $109.
99 device that appears on affiliate review sites describes the T7, which Transflo no longer sells.

A $10 per month per device SIM suspension fee, documented on Transflo's cancellation page. It is what you pay to keep a device dormant instead of terminating service, which matters for seasonal fleets parking trucks for part of the year.
That this is the only published recurring number on a compliance platform tells you how the commercial process works here: everything else comes through a quote.
Because the hardware is Geotab and the software is Transflo, ask explicitly who owns the device at the end of the term, who replaces it when it fails, and which party you call when it does. A seam between hardware and software vendors is where support disputes live.
Ask what the rate covers in document scanning volume as well. Scanning is Transflo's actual differentiator, so it is the part of the quote most likely to carry a usage boundary.
Transflo is now a document-workflow and compliance software company running on someone else's hardware, and it is worth buying for that workflow rather than for the ELD. The document scanning, weigh-station bypass and CAT Scale integration are genuine differentiators that Geotab alone does not give you. The cost is a support seam and a discontinued-platform question for existing T7 and T9 owners, plus a complete absence of published pricing.
Transflo fits a carrier whose paperwork is the bottleneck rather than the compliance itself — one moving bills of lading and proofs of delivery at volume, using weigh-station bypass, and wanting that in the same system as hours of service. It fits less well where the ELD is the whole requirement, because there the sensible comparison is Geotab directly.
Document workflow. Transflo's eBOL and ePOD scanning, Drivewyze and Fleetworthy weigh-station bypass and CAT Scale integration are not standard telematics features, and they address a real administrative cost that ELD vendors generally ignore. On the compliance side the platform now rides Geotab GO hardware, which is mainstream, heavily deployed and well integrated.
Judge this as a reseller relationship with a software layer, because that is what it is. The upside is that the box underneath is proven rather than a no-name unit from a budget vendor. The downside is that Transflo's differentiation now sits entirely in software, so the question to answer is whether the workflow is worth buying Geotab through Transflo instead of from Geotab.
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 Transflo in the running once the team starts comparing practical fit, not just headline features.
FMCSA lists Transflo's registration TFMELD against models T7, T9, GO8, GO9 and GO9B — the last three are Geotab GO devices. Transflo's own knowledge base confirms new devices arrive with Geotab on the faceplate. Geotab GO is mainstream, widely deployed telematics hardware with a large integration ecosystem, which is a better place to be than proprietary hardware from a small vendor.
eBOL and ePOD capture, weigh-station bypass through Drivewyze and Fleetworthy, and CAT Scale integration address paperwork cost directly. For a carrier where settlement waits on scanned paperwork, this is the part of the product that earns its keep, and it is not something a pure telematics vendor offers.
HOS, DVIR and IFTA with PDF and Excel export and IRP support, plus GPS, engine diagnostics and predictive maintenance. Unlike Garmin eLog, IFTA is present rather than promised, which matters for any carrier running multi-jurisdiction.
Transport Canada lists TFM001 for Android and TFM002 for iOS, both certified 6 March 2024, alongside the US FMCSA registration. Cross-border operations are covered by the same product, which is not true of every ELD in this price class.
57,664 iOS ratings at 4.75 is an unusually deep pool for a trucking app. Read it with the caveat below, but a sample that size does mean the app is genuinely in daily use at scale rather than being a thin compliance wrapper.
These are the points worth pressing in pricing calls, technical validation, and rollout planning before the team treats the product as a safe choice.
Transflo's knowledge base states that Transflo-branded devices are no longer available for new purchases but are still supported. T7 and T9 owners are therefore fine today with no upgrade path under the Transflo brand. Every review still ranking for 'Transflo T7' describes a product you cannot buy, which is worth knowing before you research this platform anywhere else.
Hardware faults belong to Geotab and software faults to Transflo, which is a dispute waiting to happen when the fault is ambiguous. Transflo also publishes two different support schedules: its telematics knowledge base says seven days, 7:00am to 10:00pm Eastern, while its FAQ says Monday to Friday, 8:00 to 6:00. Neither is 24/7. Confirm which applies before relying on it.
There is no rate on any Transflo page, and Capterra records the vendor declining to supply one. The $60.00 that appears in Transflo's own knowledge base is labelled by Transflo as an example, not a price. You cannot budget for this platform without going through a demo.
Transflo Mobile holds 4.75 across 57,664 iOS ratings but 2.91 across 5,728 on Google Play. A gap that wide on one product usually points to a platform-specific reliability problem rather than a difference of opinion. Android-fleet buyers should treat the Play rating as the more relevant number.
Transflo Mobile is scanning-first — its Play listing leads with document capture, not hours of service. The large rating pool therefore says more about the scanning experience than about compliance. Capterra carries zero reviews of the platform, and Trustpilot's figures are internally inconsistent, so there is little independent evidence about the ELD itself.
Two independent routes confirm it. Transflo's knowledge base page, now titled Geotab ELDs and Fleet Telematics, states that new devices ship showing Geotab on the faceplate.
And the FMCSA registration for TFMELD lists GO8, GO9 and GO9B among its models, which are Geotab units.
Practically, the compliance layer is now proven hardware and Transflo's own contribution is the software. That is a reasonable place for a document-workflow company to end up, but it changes what you are evaluating.
The device plugs into the OBD-II port or an adapter, runs on 4G LTE, and carries an IOX expansion port for accessories. A phone or tablet is required, at Android 9.
0 or later or iOS 14.0 or later.
Third-party specifications quoting six, nine and sixteen pin options and iOS 6.0 are describing the older T7 and should be disregarded.
Document scanning is the reason to choose this platform. eBOL and ePOD capture from the cab, weigh-station bypass via Drivewyze and Fleetworthy, and CAT Scale integration remove real administrative steps rather than adding a dashboard.
Dashcam capability comes through the Geotab GO Focus Plus rather than a Transflo camera, which is consistent with the wider pattern: compliance and hardware are Geotab's, workflow is Transflo's.
It is not whether Transflo's ELD is good, because the ELD is Geotab's. It is whether Transflo's document workflow is worth enough to buy Geotab hardware through Transflo rather than directly from Geotab or one of its resellers.
For a carrier whose paperwork is genuinely a cost centre, the answer is plausibly yes. For a carrier that just needs compliant logs, the honest answer is to price Geotab directly and compare.
Because nothing is published, this evaluation is entirely a quote exercise. Structure it around the seam between the two vendors and the workflow you are actually paying for.
Confirm in writing that you are receiving Geotab hardware and establish who you call for a hardware failure versus a software failure. This is the single most likely source of friction.
Get the monthly rate, the term, and what happens to the hardware at the end of it. There is no published price to fall back on at renewal.
Ask what document-scanning volume the rate includes, since scanning is the differentiator and the most likely place for a usage boundary.
If you already run T7 or T9 units, ask directly what support for them looks like over the next three years and what a migration to Geotab hardware costs.
Quick answers to the questions buyers usually ask once the category, software, or rollout details start getting more specific.
Transflo does not publish a price. Its product pages route to a demo request and Capterra records the vendor declining to supply a figure. The $60.00 per month that appears in Transflo's own knowledge base sits directly above a line stating that the price shown is only an example — it is placeholder text on a registration screen, not a rate. The one recurring figure Transflo does publish is a $10 per month per device SIM suspension fee.
No. Transflo's knowledge base states that Transflo-branded devices are no longer available for new purchases, and that new devices arrive with Geotab on the faceplate. The FMCSA registration corroborates this: TFMELD lists GO8, GO9 and GO9B among its models, all of which are Geotab GO units. Existing T7 and T9 devices are still supported.
Not for new purchases. Transflo states that Transflo-branded devices are no longer sold but remain supported. This matters when researching, because most reviews and pricing figures still circulating for Transflo describe the T7 and its $28 to $31 monthly rate, which no longer reflects what the company sells.
Yes, under identifier TFMELD, registered to Transflo-Pegasus Transtech of Tampa, Florida, covering models T7, T9, GO8, GO9 and GO9B. It does not appear on the FMCSA revoked list. Transflo is separately certified in Canada under TFM001 for Android and TFM002 for iOS, both dated 6 March 2024.
No, and Transflo's own pages disagree about the hours. Its telematics knowledge base gives seven days a week, 7:00am to 10:00pm Eastern, while its FAQ gives Monday to Friday, 8:00 to 6:00 Eastern. Confirm which applies to your contract. Published numbers are 813-386-6000 for general enquiries and 813-386-0971 for ELD and hours-of-service support.
Transflo Mobile holds 4.75 across 57,664 iOS ratings but 2.91 across 5,728 Google Play ratings — a 1.84-star gap on the same application, which usually indicates a platform-specific reliability problem. Note also that the app is scanning-first rather than compliance-first, so neither figure is strong evidence about the ELD itself.
