On October 12, at the Wialon community reunion in Dubai, we announced the results of the annual GPS Hardware Manufacturers Top 10 ranking. This list highlights the companies with the highest volume of new devices connected to our solution for fleet digitalization over the past 12 months.
Wialon is a hardware-agnostic system, which means it doesn’t lock partners into specific devices. Instead, it supports more than 3,800 models from over 700 manufacturers, giving service providers and fleet owners the freedom to choose the hardware that best fits their projects.
That’s why a place in the Top 10 is more than just kudos within the Wialon community. It also proves a company’s success and influence in the international telematics market. And for service providers and fleet owners, the ranking works as a clear indicator of which hardware makers are most in demand and trusted in real projects.
Let’s take a closer look at the manufacturers in the Top 10 in 2025, along with their most popular devices at the moment.
