GPS Fleet Management Provider, SageQuest, Announces Launch of Mobile App

CLEVELAND, Aug. 10, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Until now, actively managing a fleet meant sitting behind a desk and being tied to a computer screen. SageQuest (www.sage-quest.com), a leading GPS fleet tracking and management provider, has released SageQuest Mobile™, an app for Android phones, to give fleet owners and managers real-time access from anywhere to vehicle locations, dashboards, reports and exception alerts.

A full-featured version of SageQuest's Mobile Control™ GPS vehicle tracking and management solution, SageQuest Mobile makes anytime access to critical fleet information a reality with no additional costs or set up required for customers. Unlike SageQuest Mobile, many apps today are overly simplified versions of their desktop counterpart because of a mobile device's processing capabilities and screen size. "In the GPS tracking industry, taking discrete data points from an entire fleet and turning it into easily understood information for dispatch and management isn't easy," said Dennis Abraham, President of SageQuest. "But because SageQuest has always focused on delivering insight and not just data, going mobile was easy for us."

With SageQuest Mobile on their Android phone, customers will be able to:

• See real-time vehicle location and status;
• Play back or follow along driver routes;
• Find the nearest technician for an urgent job;
• Validate driver activity with instant insight into any fleet vehicle;
• Monitor speeding, late starts, excess idling, and vehicle maintenance with real-time alerts;
• And add new "places" to the map for on-the-go monitoring – customer sites, branch offices, warehouses, or employee homes.

Since 2003, SageQuest has helped its customers gain the insight they need to improve field operations, reduce fuel costs, improve service, decrease liability, and raise the bar for employee conduct. Because SageQuest delivers more than dots on a map to customers, it's just as easy to understand fleet activity from a smart phone as it is from a desktop. "We've always focused on distilling the data generated by a fleet into concise, easy-to-find and easy-to-use information," added Abrahams. "The way we organize vehicles in the system, map activity, and deliver intuitive reports is just as functional in a mobile environment, giving users the freedom they require without sacrificing access to the real-time information they need. With SageQuest Mobile, you have the power to track your fleet in the palm of your hand." The SageQuest Mobile app is available in the Android Market (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.sagequest.android.spritezero&feature=search_result) today and will be available on iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch) in early Fall, 2011. Click here to request a demonstration of SageQuest's Mobile Control GPS vehicle tracking and management solution and the SageQuest Mobile app, or call (888) 837-7243.
