FleetMatics Releases Software Upgrade to Enhance GPS Vehicle Tracking Solution

New version increases personalization, improves efficiency and provides fleet owners with increased control over rising fleet costs.

Boston, MA (Vocus/PRWEB ) November 10, 2008 -- FleetMatics, a leading provider of GPS tracking solutions for small businesses with vehicle fleets, today announced the release of a new software upgrade to its flagship GPS solution. The FleetMatics GPS Vehicle Tracking Solution already includes features that customers applaud for ease-of-use and in-depth reporting functions. With this release, FleetMatics provides several key enhancements that will increase flexibility and ultimately give fleet owners more power to control their fleets.

These enhancements will be delivered remotely and at no cost to current FleetMatics clients.

With our previous release, FleetMatics created an exceptional management tool that gave SME fleet owners an easy, cost-effective way to control their mobile assets

This new software upgrade builds on that success to provide improved functionality, increased ease of use, and additional reporting capabilities.

With the recent economic downturn, fleet owners need every advantage available to reduce costs

Our new free software upgrades will help our users do just that.

"With our previous release, FleetMatics created an exceptional management tool that gave SME fleet owners an easy, cost-effective way to control their mobile assets," said Jim Travers, CEO of FleetMatics. "This new software upgrade builds on that success to provide improved functionality, increased ease of use, and additional reporting capabilities."

Fleet owners can use the FleetMatics software to monitor and track their vehicles online via GPS. The new upgrades resulted from direct client input to reflect how fleet owners use the system to maximize productivity and reduce costs.

A "My Preferences" feature now allows for unmatched personalization. Fleet owners can set defaults for a wide variety of software functions including new graphical displays for the popular "Dashboard" feature, reporting automation, and preferences for the live tracking and route replay maps. In addition to the current alerting functions for excessive speed and unauthorized journeys, the system now alerts fleet owners when vehicles idle longer than specified limits. Alerts can also be viewed during live tracking or sent via email.

"With the recent economic downturn, fleet owners need every advantage available to reduce costs," said Travers. "Our new free software upgrades will help our users do just that."
