Gurtam tracking software review

Gurtam is a full service GPS tracking and hosting company which has been in business for over 13 years. Today, I’ll be reviewing the entire service and the options that go with it. It’s important to do your research when looking for a GPS tracking provider or a hosted solution, and my goal is to provide some insight for those looking to decide which service provider is right for their needs.

Whether you have a large fleet of vehicles that you’d like to track, or you want to start a GPS tracking business by using their white-label SAAS platform, brand it and provide solutions to customers, Gurtam provides the necessary resources to do so. The platform is also customizable to being able to work with the map provider of your choosing.

Gurtam supported GPS trackers

As far as hardware support goes, there are hundreds of different devices available to use on the Gurtam platform. Having such a large range of devices supported allows businesses to track a number of different vehicles and assets the best ways possible instead of being locked into using the same device for everything and losing out on the functionality that different types of devices can provide. This is definitely a plus when tracking mixed fleets, intermodal containers, etc.

Mapon tracking software review

Today I’ll be reviewing a GPS fleet tracking company called Mapon. When considering a GPS fleet tracking system, it’s a good idea to be knowledgeable on the features and capabilities which a provider has when looking for a system to purchase. It’s also good to know how the software works and how easy it is to use. In this review I’ll be going over some key features to help you decide if Mapon is right for you.

Mapon is a professional GPS tracking and fleet management company serving thousands of customers worldwide. They also provide hosted, white-label solutions for those looking to start a GPS tracking business. One of the other features Mapon offers is tracking of temperatures in refrigerated trailers which offers a huge benefit to the companies using it to control spoilage and reduce downtime.

Mapon GPS software usability

Mapon’s software is generally easy to navigate and see where vehicles are at any given time, but viewing historical data can be difficult, especially of other vehicle routes overall the ones you wish to view. And also, there does not seem to be an option to click on the pushpins on the map to view event details from that point in time. However, the Mapon software does excel in providing detailed information on fuel consumption and driver behavior which can be extremely useful, especially when managing a large fleet of vehicles.

Networkfleet tracking software review

Networkfleet is a full service GPS tracking company that offers fleet management services to businesses of all sizes. Networkfleet was recently acquired my Verizon, which means all of their devices are now running on the nation’s largest and most reliable cellular network. This is not the first major telematics related acquisition Verizon has taken part of in the past and should lead to increased service and reliability across all of their holdings.

Networkfleet specializes in tracking large and government fleets at the base of it’s business, but can also be used by individuals as well. They have a full suite of add-on services to tailor the program to meet the end user’s needs. There is no white-label service available for their software, which means those looking to start a GPS tracking business and private label their software will have to look elsewhere.

Networkfleet software features

As far as the actual software goes, Networkfleet’s system can be a bit hard to navigate at times and requires the navigation of complex sub-menus to get more detailed information about fleet use. This can be somewhat time consuming to access and may require that users/employees spend additional time learning how to use the platform. On the plus side, the reports on fuel and vehicle usage generated by Networkfleet’s software are extremely well put together and easy to decipher. However, the ease-of-use factor is definitely a concern when comparing their cloud based platform to companies such as GPSWOX and Navixy which are much less complex to navigate.
