## Reviews

### "Easy System to use. Excellent Implementation Support. Custom Features to meet Business Requirements." — 5.0/5

> **Michael** | *20 December 2017* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: During the implementation phase, we develop some custom features that would minimise the ability for end users to deactivate the system. Working with Fleetsu on this was an excellent experience and the delivered in rapid time.
> 
> **Cons**: This is currently being resolved, but at the moment you must log a support ticket to add or remove a device.
> 
> Our primary goal was of to provide greater visibility and ensure the safety of our workforce during high volume fault events. If for any reason communication was lost to an employee we could utilise Fleetsu to see their location and provide assistance if required.

### "Needed some work." — 4.0/5

> **Joe** | *22 October 2021* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I thought the routing part of the system was "ok", but it was a nice add-on.
> 
> **Cons**: The generation I was using was kind of complicated for our drivers 6 years ago
> 
> We used it for aprox. 6 years, we saw a lot of growing pains, with the technology changing so much at the time. It was getting better, then we moved to do to being bought out.

### "Rand McNally" — 1.0/5

> **Cammy** | *8 April 2021* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It had a good mapping system or at least it seemed to.
> 
> **Cons**: Could not keep up with team drivers maybe there was too many apps I am not sure but it could not keep itself charged when the 2nd driver was 1/2 way through their shift it would turn itself off.
> 
> I contacted the company sent device to them they sent it back with a new cord to charge but there was no change. They did not fix my problem or seem to care that their device could not stay alive.

### "Good and bads" — 5.0/5

> **Lindsey** | *2 December 2022* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The routing option and the tracking the trucks and easy report for IFTA
> 
> **Cons**: Customer service, had a hard time getting some one to call us back about issues

### "Great Australian made product and a great team" — 4.0/5

> **Andrew** | *14 December 2017*
> 
> **Pros**: Quick and easy install options. Self service customisable controls. Competitive pricing.The team are awesome.
> 
> **Cons**: Glitchy, more often than I like and most often when we go to use critical functions we find devices or software are failing us. Advanced warning system or notifications rather than self discovery could avoid frustrations.  I would like to see more regular release of updates and improvements.
