The driver app covers most fleets on day one, and for some vehicles it is not enough. A hired truck where nobody wants to depend on the driver starting a trip, a school bus that has to be visible whether or not a phone is charged, a car that should report while it is parked — those want a device wired into the vehicle.
We sell the units, fit them, and register them against the vehicle in EduBB, so what you get back is not a separate tracking website with its own login. Position from the device lands on the same map, the same trip history and the same reports as everything else on the vehicle record.
GPS Devices fleets get
- GPS devices supplied, fitted and configured
- Position reported whether or not a trip is running
- Ignition, stop and idle records per vehicle
- Devices and driver-app tracking on one platform
GPS Devices Supplied, Installed & Configured
The device, fitted
Wired to vehicle power and tested on site. You get a working unit against a vehicle, not a box and a manual.
Real-Time Vehicle Location Tracking
Live position, always on
The unit reports whether or not anybody remembered to start a trip. For hired vehicles and long-haul runs that is usually the whole reason for fitting one.
Ignition, Idle & Stop Monitoring
Stops, idling and route history
Where a vehicle halted and how long it sat there, kept per journey. Idling is the part most owners have never actually seen measured.
Ignition and movement events
Ignition on, ignition off, and movement outside working hours. The alert nobody wants to need and everybody wants after the first incident.
GPS Tracking Without Starting a Trip
Reporting with nobody driving
A fitted unit reports whether or not a trip was started, so you keep position while the vehicle is idle, parked or moving outside working hours. The driver app only reports while a journey is running.
GPS Devices Integrated With Fleet Management Software
Existing units welcome
Already fitted somebody else's trackers? EduBB can take position from those too, so you are not paying to replace working hardware.
One record per vehicle
Device position joins the fuel, service, tyre and document history for that vehicle instead of living on a separate tracking portal.
How EduBB GPS Tracking Works
Four steps. Most fleets are tracking their first trips the same week they load their vehicles.
Tell us the fleet
How many vehicles, what kind, and whether they run interstate. That decides the unit.
Devices delivered
Units supplied with their SIMs, configured to report into your EduBB account.
Fitted and tested
Installed in the vehicle and checked reporting before the van leaves.
Live on your map
The vehicle appears on the same map as the rest of the fleet, with history from day one.
Operators who bought trackers from a hardware vendor usually end up with a tracking website that knows where the vehicle is and nothing else — no fuel, no service, no papers. Registering the device against the EduBB vehicle record puts position back with the costs it belongs to.
The features behind it
Each of these opens the part of the features page that covers it in full.
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions we get asked most often by gps devices operators.
-
Do I have to buy GPS devices to use EduBB?
No. Trips report position from the driver app, so a fleet can be tracked with no hardware at all and most start that way. Devices are for vehicles that need to report independently of the driver — hired trucks, school buses, vehicles that should be visible while parked.
-
What does a GPS device track that the driver app does not?
It reports whether or not a trip has been started, which means ignition events, movement outside working hours and position while the vehicle is idle or parked. The driver app reports while a journey is running, which is enough for planned trips and nothing else.
-
Can EduBB work with GPS units I already have?
In most cases yes. If the units report to a platform we can take a feed from, they are registered against the vehicle and their position shows on the EduBB map like any other source. Send us the make and model and we will confirm before you commit.
-
Who installs the devices, and where?
We do, and we test each unit is reporting before we leave. Installation is available across Kerala and, for larger fleets, elsewhere in India. Talk to us about the vehicle count and where they are based.
Running a different kind of fleet?
Same platform. What changes is which parts of it you end up living in.
See it running on your own fleet
A demo is a walk through the console with your vehicles, routes and drivers in mind, not a generic tour. Twenty minutes and you will know whether it fits the way you already work.
