# What Does a Geotab Reseller Do? How Buying Through a Partner Works

Geotab sells through authorized resellers rather than directly to most fleets. Here's what a reseller actually provides — device supply, installation, MyGeotab configuration, add-ins, support and billing — how to tell a good one from a box-shipper, and how it works for a fleet in Canada.

## Why Geotab Has Resellers

Geotab builds the GO device and runs the MyGeotab platform, and it sells them almost entirely through a network of authorized resellers and partners. The reseller is the fleet's contract, its installer, its first line of support and its bill. Geotab's own account teams work with the largest enterprise fleets and with the partners; a fleet of ten, fifty or five hundred vehicles buys, installs and gets help through a reseller. That is by design: the platform is the same for everyone, and what differs between fleets is the installation, configuration and integration work a local partner does.

## What a Reseller Provides

Hardware supply and plan: the reseller sells or leases GO devices, cameras and IOX add-ons, and sets the fleet up on a MyGeotab rate plan that determines which data and features are included. Installation: professional install in the fleet's yard or at a shop, with harnesses for the vehicle types involved, plus swaps and troubleshooting after. Configuration: the MyGeotab database built with the fleet's groups, users, rules, exception reports and ELD rulesets, which is where most of the value of the platform is unlocked or left on the table. Add-ins and integrations: Marketplace add-ins installed and, where needed, custom add-ins and API integrations with the fleet's dispatch, maintenance or payroll systems. Support: a person who answers the phone, escalates to Geotab when it is a platform issue, and trains new dispatchers when staff turn over.

Some resellers do all of that. Some ship a box and send a login. The price for the device and plan may look similar; the fleet's results a year later do not.

## How to Tell Them Apart

Ask who installs, and whether they will come to the yard. Ask what the MyGeotab setup includes — a database with the fleet's rules and reports configured, or an empty one. Ask what happens when a device fails, in hours. Ask whether they write add-ins or integrations themselves, and for an example. Ask for references in the fleet's industry, and ask those references how support went in month eight, not week one. Ask whether they resell cameras and ELD under the same contract, so there is one number to call. A reseller that answers all of those specifically is doing the work.

## Geotab Resellers in Canada

Geotab is a Canadian company, headquartered in Oakville, Ontario, and its reseller network covers every province. For a Canadian fleet the reseller handles the Canadian-specific pieces: the Canadian ELD certification and rulesets, French-language MyGeotab and support for Quebec operations, IFTA reporting for provinces, and the cross-border configuration for fleets that run into the US. High Point GPS is an authorized Geotab reseller based in Montreal, serving fleets across Quebec, Ontario and the northeastern United States in English and French, with installation, custom add-ins and integrations done in-house.

And yes, Geotab has cameras: AI dash cams from Geotab and from Marketplace partners such as Lytx and Rosco connect to the same GO device and appear in MyGeotab, and a reseller supplies and installs them alongside the tracking hardware.
