Customer Story
We had only been using LBT’s vehicle trackers a few short weeks before Hurricane Sandy hit New York. During this busy time we were able to hook up our office and our customers to generators. Mobile power kept us in business so that we could help repair the damage to surrounding neighborhoods and businesses. It was very helpful to see in real time where our vehicles were located during Hurricane Sandy, and especially afterward as we helped get our customers on Long Island back to full power.
Finding Value in More than One Way
The reason I originally purchased the vehicle trackers was to be able to help track the driving routes of our vehicles. I am now able to see exactly when my employees show up and leave the job sites. This has greatly streamlined our billing process and has saved me time and money. I go into the History tab where I am able to see how long a vehicle was at a job site and even the route that they traveled. This precise information helped me greatly identify if there was a more efficient route. Getting to the job site without any out of route driving helps me save money on fuel and increases our productivity.
Cost Effective Yet Loaded with Features
LBT’s PocketFinder has all the features I need and is very economical. Having the ability to set up zones around certain areas helps me keep track of where my employees and vehicles are located. I currently have zones around our base, supply houses, and job sites to see when the vehicles leave and return. These notifications are little reminders that everything is going smoothly.
Mobility Empowers
I am an Android user and I really like that I can log in anytime anywhere and see what is happening with my fleet. I love that I am able to see what is happening in the field from the mobile App or desktop interface.
Finding More Control
I am glad that we installed the trackers just in time before Hurricane Sandy hit New York. Overall I feel more in control of my own business now that I have installed LBT’s GPS trackers and I recommend the solution to every business owner with a fleet.
