This market is not yet the Fleetmatics wheelhouse, and until some improvements are made, the ELD component of REVEAL feels like an afterthought.Txt: google-site-verification=5griqWRbWqm3t4g2jGGEsdH7r737YMi-0qGq-6GvCYY But for now, trucking fleets looking for an ELD should be cautious. As a Verizon subsidiary, they have the resources to make serious improvements to their product, and we have every reason to suspect they will do so. But interested fleets should be aware that some important capabilities are not yet available, and will likely need some months of working out kinks once they are released.ДЇleetmatics is a respected, thriving company with a strong history as an industry leader in tracking and telematics.

Fleetmatics is actively developing all of these features, with the full intention of releasing them before the December 2017 deadline. And on the topic of log edits, the system for making log corrections is a bit cumbersome, and there is not an easy way for fleet managers to quickly assign unassigned driving.

Drivers can edit their own logs, but a mandate compliant approval process for edits made by fleet managers is still under construction. Drivers cannot yet send logs via email or other wireless methods. Personal Conveyance and Yard Move modes are still in the works. Perhaps most importantly, many ELD-mandate-required features are under construction but not yet available.

The LogBook software used by drivers requires downloading a completely separate app from the main Fleetmatics app, and the LogBook app has received rather poor reviews from drivers in the Google Play store. Rather than plugging straight into the diagnostic port, the 3-wire system must be connected to power, ground and ignition separately.

The install process is much more involved and time consuming than most other BYOD ELDs. Integration with transportation software like TMW and McLeod is limited or non-existent. No two-way messaging, no truck route navigation, minimal engine diagnostics, no team-driver mode. The system is a bit light on some of the features that are standard in many other systems. However, there are some significant shortcomings that trucking fleets looking for an ELD should consider. If all you need is tracking and fleet management this would be an excellent choice. All this makes it a very robust GPS tracker. So even if the display tablet/smartphone is turned off, fleet managers can still get location updates from the unit. And the device even has its own 4G cell connection. The tracking hardware can be concealed behind the dash, to help avoid tampering. The back office tools for tracking and fleet management are visually attractive and easy to use. The tracking is reliable, and there are some really great dashboards and reports to help you manage your mobile workforce. This is a great product used by fleets all over the country. REVEAL is the basic fleet management offering. So all-in youвЂ™re looking at something close to $60 per unit per month, if you are providing the cell data plan rather than asking drivers to use their own. And as always, we include an estimated $15/mo for a cell enabled tablet or smartphone with a data plan. Adding on electronic logs is an additional $10/mo. Estimated monthly costs are $35/month for the basic REVEAL platform and hardware, which gives you GPS tracking and many other tools and reports. The system is priced somewhere in the upper mid-range for BYOD options. Over the road trucking is not historically their core market, and it shows somewhat in their ELD offering. Think of service vehicles like plumbing or cable repair vans, local delivery trucks, etc. However, a large part of that business is focused on fleets of smaller local vehicles. Recently acquired by Verizon, they are one of the more prolific tracking solutions on the market. Fleetmatics is a major player in GPS fleet tracking and management.
