The easiest way of tracking and tracing your fleet
|
|
When paired with the GPS-Buddy CONNECT, your Garmin GPS becomes a tracking, tracing and two-way messaging system. Not only will you always know where your vehicle is at any given moment, but you can communicate with the driver in real-time.

 |
It even works when the Garmin GPS device is off!
The separate GPS SIRFstar III receiver that comes with each GPS-Buddy CONNECT provides uninterrupted vehicle activity data.
Communication similar to text-messaging
Drivers may use their Garmin's touch-screen keyboard to send a message or to record notes about their location. Similarly, you can communicate with the drivers by sending messages that will appear on their Garmin screen.
Even new locations may be sent and the driver will receive turn-by-turn, voice-prompted directions to the new destinations.
Factory-installed on most Garmin GPS devices
GPS-Buddy tracking and messaging software is factory-installed on selected Garmin portable navigation devices: see list
A GPS-Buddy Web-based Data Service Plan comes with each GPS-Buddy CONNECT
Whether you choose to use the GPS-Buddy CONNECT as a stand-alone unit or pair it with a Garmin GPS, you need a GPS-Buddy Web-based Data Service Plan to let you monitor your vehicles activity, anytime, anywhere.
