What does Michelin Connected Fleet focus on?
Michelin Connected Fleet is the fleet telematics division of tyre manufacturer Michelin, formed after Michelin's acquisition of UK telematics provider Masternaut and subsequently rebranded under the Michelin name. Its offering typically spans fitted telematics hardware, fuel and driver behaviour reporting, and tyre-linked fleet services, aimed at larger corporate and pan-European fleets that want an established enterprise vendor relationship.
For a UK SME running its own delivery, trades, or service vehicles, an enterprise telematics package is often more than the business needs, and typically means a custom-scoped quote and a longer contract term rather than a self-serve sign-up. It usually also leaves job dispatch, digital walkaround checks, and day-to-day DVSA compliance reporting as secondary features rather than the core product focus.
FleetGS combines live GPS tracking with job dispatch, compliance, and driver management in one self-serve platform, with app-only setup and transparent pricing published openly rather than confirmed by quote.
UK compliance context

Why UK fleets choose FleetGS over Michelin Connected Fleet
Built for SME fleets, not pan-European enterprise
Michelin Connected Fleet's offering is geared towards larger corporate fleets, often operating across multiple countries. FleetGS is purpose-built for the day-to-day reality of a 10 to 250-vehicle UK operator, without paying for enterprise features aimed at a different kind of business.
Transparent pricing, published openly
Enterprise telematics pricing typically requires a custom quote and often a longer-term contract. FleetGS publishes flat-rate GBP plans openly on a monthly rolling basis, so a fleet manager can see the real cost before ever speaking to a salesperson.
No hardware fitting or onboarding project required
Enterprise telematics services are often built around fitted hardware and a formal onboarding project. FleetGS's app-only tracking gets a fleet live within 48 hours using the driver's own smartphone, with hardware as an optional add-on.
Direct, self-serve control over UK compliance tools
FleetGS's walkaround checks, Working Time Directive tools, and Operator Licence reporting are accessed directly through the app and dashboard, built specifically for UK DVSA requirements rather than adapted from a wider European product.
