Vehicle tracking and Fleet Management solutions

By Steve Nahman, 13.04.10 | Comments

Since vehicle tracking's inception in South Africa almost 18 years ago many players have entered the market hoping to capitalise on the multi billion rand industry. Many of the products brought to the market have either been RF(radio frequency) based or GSM based offering the client a limited but yet effective view on basic fleet management and its location. Over time as the technology has improved and the costs of using GPS systems has come down, most players have added an effective GPS system allowing clients to position and monitor their vehicles in real time.

Founded in late 2008 Star Trac Vehicle Tracking based in Rivonia has offered this technology (GPS) using the GPRS networks to great effect. The company continues to grow by adding clients to their base daily. The system which is one of the smallest in size is easy to hide in the vehicle improving the chance of recovery. Designed in Germany with over 10 international accreditations from several top testing laboratories like TUV,CE and IECEE is sold now in over 50 countries around the globe with unit sales now over 500 000.

Star Trac Vehicle Tracking has installers based throughout South Africa who are all trained in the professional installation of the product. Installation takes around one and a half hours. After installation the client is given a log in and user name to be able to view the vehicle movements in real time on a web based platform.

By using the web based tracking service a client can log in, check and monitor the vehicle whereabouts including being able to set up Geo Zones,(restricted areas) Speed violations, Accident and Harsh breaking monitoring to name just a few.

Many clients claim to have saved thousand in operating and vehicle maintenance due to being able to control the driver's habits and style better.

Vehicle tracking has come a long way and it's no longer just used for the recovery of a stolen/Hijacked vehicle's but used correctly it can save the company thousands in better managing  fleets. Star Trac Vehicle Tracking also has the ability by using our web based service to offer clients a work hour report. This report can be set to email the client either daily, weekly or monthly showing each trip and the mileage and time taken during the trip. By using this report which can be saved as a CSV file allows the client to calculate the business use of his vehicle for Tax purposes.

Star Trac Vehicle tracking has a team of highly motivated professionals always available to answer client questions and service their needs. We operate 24/7 assuring the client his assets are always being looked after.
