Features

Trackimo does not call itself a fleet management company, but rather the website describes the business as an “IoT solution provider with proprietary technology, enabling worldwide connectivity for M2M devices”, which clearly refers to the wide range of solutions it offers.

Trackimo offers real-time updates which help businesses to increase profits by efficiently controlling costs like maintenance and fuel, reducing the amount paid for insurance premiums, and reducing workload by automating various tasks like routing and scheduling.

The company sells various tracking devices, both hardwired as well as plug-and-play. While the hardwired tracking devices are ideal for complying with regulatory policies, the plug-and-play devices can be used in different vehicles based on your requirements. This flexibility allows companies to plan their hardware budgets efficiently.

Trackimo’s real-time tracker not only tracks the vehicle’s location but also calculates the vehicle’s idle time. This effectively helps businesses identify reasons for fuel wastage and coach drivers on efficient driving habits.

Trackimo provides intuitive vehicle tracking software which is not only user-friendly but also feature-rich. It allows adding up to 100 vehicles at a time and efficiently tracks the vehicle and its route, and alerts the operator whenever a vehicle exceeds a preset speed limit.

Some of the key features of Trackimo are as follows:

• Efficient route planning: Trackimo lets organizations plan routes efficiently and automatically. This reduces the workload of dispatchers and proper planning of the route promotes cost-efficiency. Well-planned routes not only save on fuel costs but also result in timely deliveries and therefore higher customer satisfaction.
• Employee safety: Trackimo’s GPS devices come equipped with an SOS button that raises an instant alarm informing the operator about any untoward situation. Furthermore, the operator can keep tabs on the driver’s status and activity remotely which further ensures their safety and well-being.
• Reports: Detailed reports on driver performance, fuel consumption, distance travelled, vehicle idling, maintenance, engine hours, and more help decision-makers stay aware of the smallest of issues with the fleet operation. Decisions like replacing a vehicle, coaching or rewarding a driver, maintenance and more can be easily taken care of based on the trends in these reports. Trackimo offers customizable reports based on your requirements to ensure that even the smallest fleet operation can be tracked.
• Driver visibility and vehicle tracking: Real-time tracking of vehicles ensures that operators and admins are aware of wear and tear issues, and they can arrange timely servicing and upkeep of the vehicle and its vital parts like the engine, battery and tyres. This also helps in reducing shrinkages as well as tracking overtime, thus ensuring eligible drivers get paid for their extra time at work.

Other features available with Trackimo’s fleet management solution are the ability to add a point of interest and landmarks on the map, and there is a roadmap view which shows the transit routes of all the vehicles in an area, and a fleet summary which offers a holistic summary of the current state of the entire fleet.
