What type of system is ECIT Autogear?
ECIT Autogear is an electronic logbook and fleet management system for Norwegian businesses – in the same category as ABAX, Automile and GSFleet – not an accounting or ERP system. At its core is a GPS-based logbook that meets the Norwegian Tax Administration’s requirements (Tax Regulations §5-12-3), enhanced with real-time fleet mapping, equipment tracking, machine hours, project management and ESG reporting – and with payroll integration with Tripletex, Visma .net Expense, PowerOffice Go, Nettlønn and Smartdok.

Pros
The product simply works and does exactly what it should, and support is genuinely helpful whenever we need them. It’s the kind of tool you set up and then stop worrying about.
Having vehicles, machines and tools tracked in one platform gives us a fantastic overview and clear time savings. It’s an established, proven product — we trust the data completely when we report and follow up on costs.
For us, the equipment tracking feature is worth its weight in gold. Tools used to get left behind or go missing between building sites, but now we can see exactly where everything is. The logbook updates automatically, so the lads don’t have to enter anything manually, and I can see where the vehicles are when a customer asks when we’ll be arriving. It’s easy to get started, and the app is straightforward to use on the go.
The fact that the same GPS system handles several requirements at once. We use Autogear to track machine hours and the location of equipment on site, and we also have a logbook and journey history for the machines travelling on public roads. We always know where everything is and how many hours each machine has been in operation – AND we avoid the never-ending search for equipment that has ‘gone missing’ and ended up on the wrong project.

Cons
It’s not the cheapest option out there — but that reflects the quality and reliability you get, and for something this central to staying compliant it’s money well spent.
It sits in the premium end on price — but for a solution this reliable, that our whole finance process leans on, it’s well worth it. You get what you pay for, and then some.
The Bluetooth chips on the smallest device update their position slightly more slowly than the GPS tracking on the cars. That makes sense from a technical point of view, but I had to understand the difference first.
We had to spend a bit of time getting to grips with how the various subscriptions work together at the start. Support helped us get going quickly, but a simple overview from day one would have been nice.
