PRODUCT ANALYSIS DRAFT 1

The article “GPS Insight Can Meet ‘Out-of-the-Box’ Requirements” introduces the functionality, features, and benefits of GPS Insight, which primarily provides “asset and vehicle tracking solutions”. The main function of GPS Insight is to retrieve and relay back data collected to a user for analysis, all while happening in real time. The article also stated that the features of GPS Insight are “configurable and customizable” according to the user’s requirements and preferences. To be able to meet user’s ever-changing demands and requests, GPS Insight introduces new features based on user’s response and feedback. Due to GPS Insight’s customizability, it is able to perform at different degrees of comprehensiveness. GPS Insight has the potential to be an asset to any company when and if it is utilized properly. The introduction of telematics in data analysis is able to boost efficiency and has made the process convenient and fuss-free.

There are benefits with implementing GPS Insight into a business, such as reducing expenses, optimizing resources, and improving safety. GPS Insight uses global positioning systems to track vehicles in real time. This system provides users with the shortest route for their vehicles. This helps in reducing fuel consumption, which over time, reduces overall operating expenses. A large part of GPS Insight involves data analysis. GPS Insight allows users to get detailed insights on fuel usage, driver behaviour, and engine idling in real time. With this data collected, it can help businesses pin-point problem areas and identify key money-saving areas. GPS Insight allows users to improve personnel safety by monitoring their fleet in real time. Since GPS Insight gives users the option to open a two-way communication between drivers and fleet managers, this ensures that the proper assistance and support is available to drivers when required.

Telematics industry has expanded over the years resulting in a rise of tracking solutions such as GPS Insight. GPS Insight is comparable to other GPS fleet tracking systems such as Cartrack. When compared to Cartrack, GPS Insight is the obvious choice to go with. GPS Insight has 14 more features than Cartrack making it able to meet more users’ requirements and preferences. GPS Insight is more accessible than Cartrack as GPS Insight has a mobile application version, while Cartrack only has a web application option. The absence of a mobile application could decrease efficiency and prevent Cartrack from reaching its true potential.
