GPS Tracking
We’ll begin with GPS Insight’s most obvious product – GPS tracking. GPS tracking creates full fleet visibility, and you’ll never lose sight of a vehicle (or a driver) on the road. But although GPS tracking is pretty much in the name, that same GPS technology has a significant role to play when it comes to many other essential fleet management services.
As well as tracking and mapping each of your vehicles, GPS Insight’s GPS technology will help you better understand your operations in real-time, create actionable insights, and get your fleet the results it needs. Its products and services allow your team to observe and analyze your fleet in real-time, and you’ll also be able to check driver routes and journeys historically.
Each dispatch and event is saved so that you can review them at a later date. But the actual dispatch procedure is made even easier as well. When you can immediately check where each asset is in real-time and confirm its status, you can dispatch jobs in an intelligent way for an even more productive fleet.
And when you understand every moment of every asset’s day, you’ll be in the best position to reduce your fuel costs, labor costs, and other operating costs. Change driver routes that are ineffective and streamline procedures to make your entire operation more efficient. Everything is designed to help you optimize the utilization of your workforce.
GPS technology will also improve your fleet’s maintenance record. By tracking and managing vehicle diagnostics and service history, you’ll be able to increase uptime, keep your vehicles in the healthiest condition, and prevent unexpected maintenance with automatic scheduling and alerts.
Finally, the same technology will also help your team improve driver behavior and create a culture of safety. By tracking your drivers and reviewing individual reports, you’ll be able to quickly identify regular risky behavior such as speeding, harsh braking, cornering, and more. GPS Insight provides you with the tools you need to improve fleet safety across the board, mitigate risk, and protect lives.
Field Service Management
These are all attractive benefits of efficient fleet service management, but how are they synchronized? What ties each of these aspects together to make such a huge quantity of information understandable? GPS Insight’s Field Service Management software does it all for you.
That software supports your organization’s daily workflow and eliminates paperwork with full automation. You’ll have a connected team that can quickly communicate with drivers in the field and a smooth, accurate journey for each customer. Intuitive report builders can be used to highlight whatever data you would like to focus on, and you’ll find new ways to use staff hours more effectively.
The intelligent software removes simple and redundant tasks, allowing your staff to concentrate on more important jobs and reducing errors. Simplified digital calendars instantly show job status, team member availability, custom forms, and even checklists. Invoicing and payment processing are also fully automated within the software.
By using GPS Insight’s field service management software, you’ll have everything you need to grow your business. Stay organized in the office and you’ll be efficient on the road.
Compliance Management & ELDs
But there’s no use in being such an efficient, streamlined, and organized operation when you’re not even compliant! Luckily, GPS Insight takes fleet compliance seriously too. It has developed a range of products that are all designed to safeguard your business and ensure robust and flexible compliance management.
Its ELD solution is a mobile one. The mobile app is a solution for both ELD and DVIR requirements and is easily installed on a smartphone or tablet. Alternatively, ELD Connect can be hardwired into your vehicle for a more reliable, robust compliance solution. And for fleets that already have an ELD solution in place, DVIR Mobile can be used at a reduced cost.
The ELD technology is super simple for drivers to use and even comes with built-in tutorials. There’s multi-lingual support, an online portal for office staff, instant two-way communication, and full FMCSA compliance. Whether you choose to install the ELD Mobile or ELD Connect, you’ll be able to keep your entire operation compliant – no matter how many updates there are to local regulations.
Smart Cameras
Focusing again on driver behavior and driver safety, GPS Insight markets Driveri – it’s 360° AI Fleet Camera. This intelligent dashcam automatically captures every incident, accident, and even on the road to keep your fleet safe.
Going beyond the requirements of traditional dashcams, Driveri takes full advantage of AI technology to provide in-cab alerts and endless insights. It can capture, review, and analyze footage before sending highlights and crucial data to office teams for further review. You can use the captured evidence to learn more about your drivers, but it’s also indisputable evidence that’s worth its weight in gold in court.

“GPS Insight provides good fleet tracking services with a flexible interface that accommodates any fleet size. However, it requires a two- or three-year contract to use its services.”
