I have used both gimbal beacons and Estimote beacons. I need to know if there is any technical difference between the two?

Estimote costs $33 per beacon, while gimbal is merely $5!

What's the game?

Answer 1

Gimbal requires you use their back-end, Estimote doesn't. Gimbal pricing is therefore tied to back-end pricing, not the cost of the beacon.
