Car Tracker App For Fleet Management

These days many UK employees work outside of a traditional office setting, and fleet management is no different. When you are on the road or working from home, it can be a challenge to keep tabs on your vehicles. 

Many fleet managers are unaware of mobile apps that can make it easy to manage their fleet on the go. You can do more than you think from your mobile: dispatch, monitor vehicle activity, and even prevent theft and misuse!

Vimcar’s vehicle tracking app allows you to have improved oversight of your fleet at your fingertips – wherever your office is that day.

Why Use a Car Tracker App to Manage Your Fleet?

Vimcar’s mobile app offers you time and money-saving solutions with its game-changing features: geofencing and timefencing.

Geofences are virtual barriers you set around an area of your choosing. 

→ Timefences are virtual barriers that establish normal hours of vehicle use. 

You can customise these barriers for each individual vehicle, so you get the exact solutions for your fleet.

How Can Geofencing and Timefencing Help Me Manage My Fleet?

1. Prevent Theft

Geofences and timefences keep your fleet secure by notifying you of suspicious activity. Set a geofence around your company car park, and timefence indicating your working hours.

  • If your vehicle leaves the car park past working hours, you receive an instant push notification from your car tracker app. From there, you can determine what further action is needed. 

And because your vehicles are continuously tracked, you can notify police of the stolen vehicle’s location and find it— before it’s too late.

2. Monitor Arrival and Departure of Vehicles  

Geofencing is a great tool to streamline cargo reloading, so your drivers can make more deliveries and improve customer service. 

  • Vimcar’s vehicle tracking app indicates when vehicles are back in range and ready for reloading. Simply set a geofence around your desired area, and your team knows to prepare.

Not only that, but you can use geofencing to manage customer appointments:

  • When the app notifies you that the vehicle is within the customer’s range, you know to confirm delivery with the customer.
  • Vehicle tracking apps automatically record driver’s locations and stops, so you can demonstrate proof of attempted delivery, even if clients don’t show up.

3. Prevent Vehicle Misuse 

Employees misusing company vehicles for personal use is unfortunately common, but car tracker apps with geofencing offer solutions that work. Your geofence keeps you in the loop, with accurate route history data to back it up.

Vimcar’s mobile app notifications allow you to investigate vehicle misuse immediately.

Manage Your Fleet on the Go with a Vehicle Tracking App

The perk of vehicle tracking apps is that you don’t need to be in your office to effectively manage your fleet.  Whether you are working from home or on the go, Vimcar’s Fleet Geo helps you stay on top of your fleet.

Easy Dispatching on the Road:

  • Vimcar’s car tracker app shows you the distance between your driver and customer, so you can provide customers with accurate delivery times.
  • Accurate delivery ETAs mean your customers can prepare to meet the driver, so neither of them has to wait around.
