Software


Fleet Management Software:
  • Web Based Fleet Management Software will receive location data from a vehicle unit over a wide area wireless network (e.g. Singular or Versions) and store data in a central server. Customers will be able to view their fleet’s locations and history from anywhere with an Internet connection.

  • Client Based Fleet Management Software is installed on one or several computers in an office and can be accessed over the office network or a VPN network. The most common method of receiving vehicle data is a local area wireless connection. Vehicles will transfer their data to a central database when they return within range of a radio antenna mounted at the office. Data is stored at the office and is available as long as a business owner desires.
