I bought mine this year. So far it’s great. Depends on what you want to use it for.

It uses the same system as Garmin as far as I’m aware, so coverage should not be different. I went with zoleo for a few reasons:

1) super easy and convenient to text and stay in touch. Friend of mine has Garmin and it’s kind of a pain to communicate - have to text specific number etc. the zoleo app makes it really convenient for me to keep my wife and kids on the loop.
2) plan pricing is good and easy to put on sleep mode for $5 a month
3) I didn’t care for real time location tracking, which is additional cost for zoleo but didn’t need it
4) I use my iPhone for all things GPS/mapping related so Garmin really didn’t add value for me. Yes battery life etc on phone isn’t as good - but fact is my phone in combo with zoleo gives me everything I need
5) way cheaper than Garmin. Buy it, try it and if you really don’t like it I doubt it would be hard to sell. More people have $200 to spend than $450
