Perifleet: Buy vs Skip (Geotab Fleets With Long-Tail Liability Exposure)
IF your client runs on MyGeotab and carries liability exposure that outlives a 30-90 day camera retention window, THEN Perifleet Plus at $15/mo per vehicle buys a 1-year Azure ZRS incident archive plus the Claude-powered chat assistant, and Premium at $18/mo extends that to 2 years with white-label and Slack delivery for a managed safety retainer. IF the fleet is not on MyGeotab or the client only needs live viewing, THEN skip: the add-in has no standalone portal and Standard at $12/mo caps retention at 90 days, which is the same gap the tool exists to close.

Perifleet: Buy vs Skip (Geotab Fleets With Long-Tail Liability Exposure)
“IF your client runs on MyGeotab and carries liability exposure that outlives a 30-90 day camera retention window, THEN Perifleet Plus at $15/mo per vehicle buys a 1-year Azure ZRS incident archive plus the Claude-powered chat assistant, and Premium at $18/mo extends that to 2 years with white-label and Slack delivery for a managed safety retainer. IF the fleet is not on MyGeotab or the client only needs live viewing, THEN skip: the add-in has no standalone portal and Standard at $12/mo caps retention at 90 days, which is the same gap the tool exists to close.”
- Client already operates MyGeotab, so Perifleet installs as a native add-in with no second login for the fleet manager to learn
- Insurance claims or legal disputes routinely surface 6-18 months after the incident, making the Plus 1-year or Premium 2-year archive the actual purchase reason
- Fleet mixes camera vendors across depots and needs the camera-agnostic REST adapter layer to pull triggered clips into one archive
- Agency wants a recurring safety retainer: Premium's white-label plan and Slack integration let you deliver scoring and coaching under your own brand
- Fleet manager needs plain-language answers about driver behavior, which the Claude-powered assistant covers from Plus upward
- Prospect's telematics stack is not MyGeotab; Perifleet is tightly coupled to it and offers no independent portal
- Budget only stretches to Standard at $12/mo while the client's real problem is long-tail liability, since 90-day retention leaves the same evidence gap
- Client wants marketing-style cross-channel dashboards; Perifleet reports on video incidents and driver safety, not campaign performance
- No one on the client side will action coaching output, so the safety scoring leaderboard and coaching inbox generate clips nobody reviews
- Agency cannot absorb per-client setup work: each deployment needs MyGeotab database access, a provisioned Azure Blob or AWS S3 bucket, and camera trigger validation
