Vehicle tracking
« on: November 28, 2021, 11:30:22 am »
Hi Guys & Girls

I know this has been covered in the past but with technology getting better and cheaper as I was wondering what people are using nowadays.

Looking at 10 work vehicles all in total to be covered.

Any personal recommendations please?

used to use rem tracking but found them to be unreliable

now using velocity fleet (7 vehicles) be excellent and we use the vehicle inspection as well

Smallest package they do is 21+ vans apparently. I can have the package but he advised there would be cheaper.

I had a cheaper one previously. Now I don't.

Weird. I was cold called by them about two years ago. Slightly more expensive but miles better than my previous tracking provider.
