Overdue Shoutout Time

March 04, 2008 By: Mr. GPS Category: GPS System

It’s the beginning of March already!  Wherever does the time go?  I have been doing some cleanup here on the GPS ROI Tracking site and I notice it has been a while since I gave a shoutout to the faithful sponsors who are responsible for keeping this place running … as well as providing some great services for my readers.


GPS Insight gives your company’s management the ability to report on:

  • Activity Detail
  • Fuel Consumption
  • Speed Violations
  • Vehicle Performance(Trouble Codes)
  • Landmark Activity
  • Odd Hours
  • Geofence Violation
  • Many others…

GPS Insight uses satellites and AT&T/T-Mobile to provide you with highly accurate vehicle locations every 2 minutes throughout the US and Canada. Verify your exact coverage with the AT&T Coverage Tool.  This company is run by a man I have never had the pleasure of meeting yet, but am proud to consider a friend … Rob Donat.  There are many companies out there offering services similar to GPS Insight.  I have yet to find any that equal or exceed Rob’s offerings, though.  Rob’s been an advertiser, advisor and sounding board to us here for some time now, and I recommend him.

Geotab is not a current advertiser … I hope to correct that little oversight soon, but they get my recommendation for several reasons. They have great line of products, they offer great values for the money and they have great people. I sold their products for several years and if I were ever to be back in the actual GPS tracking business I certainly would sell them again. They are the only current company I know of that gets the "timing issue" right … instead of sending reports at a fixed rate … which always seems to be the wrong rate … they send reports by a patented, as needed algorithm that gives them the best tracking plots in the business in my book. recommended.


image Transducer Technologies are a long-time advertiser here at the GPS Tracking ROI blog.  They specialize in load cells, but offer many other interesting products. What’s a load cell?  It’s a device you attach to structures being tested or monitored to measure the strain (loads) being imposed.  I do not know these folks personally, because they are not in my area of expertise, but they have been advertising here for some time … so they must offer items that some of my readers find useful.  For that service, I thank them.


Hand tec GPS products page

HandTec  is a top of the line UK-based supplier of GPS hand held and consumer products.  They certainly help point out just how international the world of GPS has become.  I see some very decent prices and a display of real product knowledge on their site, so they certainly have to be on your short list when you are in the market for personal GPS products.

Vehicle Tracking Solutions is a new advertiser   here at the GPS ROI Tracking blog.  We welcome them and welcome the chance to learn more about them.  In an initial review of their web site I notice that they offer some very powerful tools


OK, there you have the highlights. If anyone else has a product or service to offer the readers of the GPS ROI Tracking blog, just shoot me a note via the tracking link under the "About" page. I’m sure we can work out a mutually beneficial arrangement. And most of all, thanks to all of my faithful readers. Advertisers foot the bill abut only readers and subscribers (free, of course) can make the site "happen".
