How pricing works

Silvertrac doesn’t publish prices on its product page; it describes “easy monthly payments” with no contracts and no hidden fees, and silvertracsoftware.com/pricing now redirects to Trackforce’s quote form.

CheckTasks prices are published: Basic £15/month (3 sites, 100 checkpoints, 3 staff logins), Standard £45/month (10 sites, 500 checkpoints, 10 staff logins) and Premium £75/month (unlimited sites, 1,000 checkpoints, 20 staff logins), all + VAT, with a 30-day free trial and no card.

We can’t show a like-for-like price because Silvertrac’s prices aren’t published. CheckTasks prices exclude VAT.

Where Silvertrac may suit you better

We’d rather you pick the right tool. Silvertrac could be the better fit if:

  • You run a mobile patrol or guarding company and want dispatch, two-way messaging and parking enforcement in one app.
  • Your clients expect a client portal and live GPS location of officers.
  • Your officers use iPhones — CheckTasks is Android-only for now, with iPhone coming soon.
  • You want a personal customer success manager as part of the service, as Silvertrac describes.
