Overview
"This is probably the best tool I've ever seen to help us plan the work route and keep track of performance of individual drivers efficiently. If someone stops and sits for two hours we'll know. If someone isn't doing what they're supposed to be doing during work time, we'll know - it's like riding in the seat with them and being invisible." The dispatch coordinator Warren Larry at Lacombe Waste Services, A Caring Canadian Company" in Ottawa, ON, Canada said.
"GPSTrack is an excellent tool for us to manage our service vehicles and mobile workers efficiently. It can also be used as a simple customer management tool. When we receive service requests from customers, we can record all information in a simple customer database. From this database, we can easily plan a service route for our workers to follow. By assigning a small GPS data logger to the vehicle we have then all controls to track performance of our service people on site". The Service manager Mr. Mark Lee at QUATRO ELECTRONICS LTD, the electronic system and software house in UK said.
