The Online GPS Fleet Maintenance Report Tool holds the key to getting the most from any GPS Fleet Management System you select. We found huge usability differences among the systems we looked at before we selected the Hawk GPS tracking equipmentc GPS Fleet Routing & Dispatch service.

Like most systems, we still see great GPS tracking equipment that is over-priced or the online management lacks a usable interface. Better priced hardware suffers from slow or un-usable tracking software and some of the feature rich management programs are overkill. Besides complicating the installation and driving up costs.

Our recommended Hawk Affordable GPS Fleet Management, Heavy Equipment and Asset Tracking Systems from tekniaMICRO GPS tracking unit is easy to install and usually takes less than an hour.

Note: We see problems with disabling a vehicle after it stops. A remote shut-off feature (after engine shut-off) is desirable for Buy-here Pay-here car lots to install on cars destined for difficult recovery from non-paying buyers. Be fore-warned that installation costs for adding remote door un-lock and remote shut-off could increase into the $200 to $500 range.

Things to look-out for while shopping for GPS Fleet Management Systems:
Like all tools, GPS systems come with a multitude of features. This sets the stage for over-spending.

Do you really need remote door un-lock?
Do you need to dis-able remote vehicle start?
If not, these features are over kill and waste money…

Our online GPS tracking and map tool has a report generation tool that will let you produce a mileage report for each vehicle by state. This is useful because you can access the reports any time you need them without having access to the vehicle and or requiring someone physically check the odometer.

This Mileage Information could help you:

• Scheduling tune-ups and maintenance
• Validate mileage expense
  • By State
    
• Compare actual mileage to fuel expense to stop the use of the company fuel card for filling up personal vehicles

• Fudging time won’t keep us competitive…
• Side work using my trucks, materials and equipment has to stop…
• Our PR goes out the window when company trucks are parked at the bar…
• Don’t get me started on drinking on company time and Workman’s Comp Insurance…

I’m positive a GPS Fleet Management System will pay for itself the first month;…keeping it in place will help keep the wheels on my company.

A huge investment took place getting this company rolling. Lots of time, effort, money and sacrifice. I owe it to myself, my family, my ‘guys’ and my customers to manage this company and what’s been built.

This Online GPS Tracking System gives me tools to:

• • Dispatch the closest truck
  • Know when maintenance is due
  • Check work start and stop times
  • Stop week-end trips using my fuel

I’m convinced a GPS Fleet Management System will pay for itself the first month;…keeping it in place will help keep the wheels on my company.I’ll admit I’m a little heavy on the pedal, but when I had the company logo painted on the side of my truck, it changed my thinking. “Leave a little earlier…” you say. Ya, ya, now if I could get my guys to think that way we’d all be better off. I will offer this in fairness; My GPS report for the previous week will be available to anyone that gets a review based on a GPS vehicle report.

A small ethical price will be paid for these cya activities but this will provide ‘Review Opportunities’ for the guys and I’ll stick to some good advice, “Review the best; Release the rest.”

My daughter got over it;
So will the guys.

Signed,
The Management

PS: I’m getting a small grin on my face because our bonus plan just got a huge shot in the arm. …theft recovery before vandalism takes place gives me some peace of mind. Hmm, all this is giving me some peace of mind!

I’m glad the guys over at teknia micro figured all this out. I understand it took a while to find a usable, affordable GPS Asset and Fleet Management System. They say it was a challenge to get the right equipment and online management system all in the same package.

There’s a lot of GPS tracking units out there but they are too expensive, bundle the wrong features for us or the online interface is awful. These guys got it right! I need this…

After I plugged it in, the Garmin Nuvi 265WT unit showed it’s present location within 1 minute. (a minute faster for initial unit location than last generation GPS units) Works great with the least expensive consumer Garmin PND, the Nuvi 205 & 205W.

One check of our online tech diagnostic tool showed the unit up & running with fleet management, dispatch & routing capabilities. I logged into my account and had a locate within a minute. WOW!

Google maps are sweet! The hybrid view placed my truck in the exact parking space of the parking lot I had parked in. The locate at my home placed my address at the neighbors home next door but showed the truck in my driveway.

Details:
After installation is complete, we validate the unit is online and assign it to your account.

At purchase, we need you to send us a valid email account and a password you can remember. That’s all there is to it to get you started.

Login:
The password should be changed later and the admin panel will send it to you if you forget it. We can’t see it so it remains under your control.

Admin Panel
The admin panel is clean and straight-forward. It doesn’t get in your way whether you have one or two units to track, dozens or hundreds. You can group the units and assign nicknames if you like.

Control your stuff; Get a grin on your face; Experience peace of mind! Our new GPS System Administration Panel makes it easy to track and manage your assets:

• GPS Tracking is now inexpensive
• Our unit is easy to install
• The online software is easy to use
• It’s easy to manage lots of units
• Reasonable cost of service

You will be delighted!
Retail cost per unit is under $500. We’re seeing online prices of $695 or more for this same unit and the locate software we’ve seen is slow or seems clunky.

Online tracking

• a GPS asset tracking tool that worked
• it had to be easy to use
• low cost to start/low cost to maintain

What can GPS Tracking do for me or my business?

Our GPS tracking service provides a ‘TOOL’ to locate and manage your vehicles. Our online GPS tracking application will show you where your vehicles are, how fast they are going and where thay have been. It will also alert you if your company truck goes outside an area you specify or if the vehicle exceeds a set speed. You can then print a report as evidence to confront employees in a review or a teen entrusted with the family car.

Use GPS vehicle tracking for…

• Dispatching
• Mileage or mainenance
