DUBLIN, Nov 11, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
FleetMatics, a leading global provider of fleet management solutions for
commercial fleet vehicles, announced today the latest release of its GPS
software solution for tracking and performance management of mobile
assets. The FleetMatics 8.5 GPS Vehicle Tracking System offers new
features such as Industry Benchmarks, believed to be an industry first,
and Speed Limits.
According to FleetMatics CEO Jim Travers, "With this new release,
FleetMatics once again sets the pace for fleet management, harnessing
the power of the historical information in our database to provide fleet
managers and business owners with greater visibility into their business
to improve operational efficiency while reducing costs."
FleetMatics CTO Peter Mitchell adds: "Our developers continue to
incorporate the latest technologies and client input to further improve
on our product, which we believe is the easiest to use GPS fleet
management software on the market. The latest update of the FleetMatics
system features key improvements, as suggested by FleetMatics customers.
We believe these enhancements help our customers stay current on the
latest trends in fleet management solutions."
FleetMatics 8.5 Enhancements At-a-Glance
Industry Benchmarks. FleetMatics users already know about the
volumes of data the system provides, but many of them want the
perspective of knowing how their fleet should be performing when
compared to similar businesses, industries and locations. Continuing
down the path of providing business intelligence, the FleetMatics
Industry Benchmarks provides that analysis for the user's individual
needs, providing deep insight into each vehicle's performance and
identifying impactful opportunities for improvement. With one of the
largest customer sets in the vehicle tracking industry and billions of
position points received, we believe FleetMatics is in a strong position
to provide industry benchmarks with high credibility and relevance at a
local level.
Industry Benchmarks expands on the tools already offered with the data
mining engine that helps the user analyse idling time, mileage, speed
and engine on-time for every vehicle tracked. Industry Benchmarks goes
in-depth with simple, actionable insights based on mining historical
trends and comparisons to specific industries, major segments and
geographical regions.
Speed Limits. Most GPS vehicle tracking solutions limit
visibility into speeding on only interstates and highways. With Speed
Limits, FleetMatics goes well beyond standard posted speed metrics,
providing a more comprehensive source of speed limit information across
all types of roads and geographies, including local and residential
roads. Speed Limits is powered by FleetMatics RoadSpeed, a specialised
database of average speed values derived from billions of points of
vehicle movement.
CEO Travers notes: "As has been our tradition, FleetMatics customers
will not be charged for these incremental enhancements in the 8.5
release of our software. We also offer free, unlimited training on the
new features. It's part of our continual goal to provide our clients
with practical, easy-to-use fleet tracking solutions, along with the
technical support they need, to leverage our software for maximum
results."
