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 user 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.

Thanks, Zakirah, for this product description + analysis. It is very fluent. I couldn't find any language errors in the whole essay. That's great!
ReplyDeleteThe weakness here is in your organization of content: I'm not sure where the product description ends and the analysis starts. It seems that the first two paragraphs are devoted to the description and only the last paragraph to the analysis, contrasting GPS Insight and Cartrack. Was that you intention?
What might make this more effective is for you to first explain to the reader not just "the functionality, features, and benefits of GPS Insight" but also what GPS Insight actually is. You do that only in paragraph #2: "GPS Insight uses global positioning systems to track vehicles in real time." Once you have done that, you can focus on the functionality, features, and benefits. All of this should be in one paragraph, like a brief summary.
As for your analysis, I would save some of the info that you have included in the product description for this section. Here's where you should do the step by step analysis. However, what's most important is for you to first present a clear thesis. It seems that your thesis is this: "When compared to Cartrack, GPS Insight is the obvious choice to go with." But you place that sentence in the middle of the last paragraph, so it gets lost.
For more info, it seems you need to look through the materials I gave you on organizing/outlining ideas and on citing information from outside sources.
Here are some other issues:
1) You write "to retrieve and relay back data ". Relay back from where?
2) No in-text citation? The reference list (end-text citation list) is not in APA style.
Let's work on this. See me if you have questions.
