Telematics provider Geotab has a new product that aims to change the traditional SaaS model. Read CCJ to see how it works and will benefit fleets.
Summary
Geotabs Extended Services will allow fleets to create separate databases to share telematics data with third parties such as insurance companies. Fleets may not want to share telematics data that includes customer locations, for example, or the time of day that drivers are driving, said Neil Cawse, chief executive of Geotab. Cawse expects to see fleets sharing the same database containing the last 30 days of data, for example, to multiple insurance companies to obtain competing quotes based on their actual risk behaviors. The Port has a program that guarantees wait times for trucking companies will not be more than 30 minutes if they install a telematics device or share location data. The new hardware is designed to better withstand harsh conditions such as extreme temperatures, precipitation and dirt with the added benefit of providing the same technology as the traditional GO9 device.
