Award-Winning Vehicle Tracking, Connected Dash Cams & Lone Worker Protection

Telematics technology combines telecommunications and informatics to transmit and receive data from vehicles. Telematics systems play a crucial role in fleet management by enabling real-time tracking and monitoring of vehicles, enabling efficient fleet operations.

A telematics device is installed in your vehicle by Crystal Ball’s expert auto engineers, which  will then transmit information and data to your fleet management software and mobile app. 

A vehicle tracking system allows fleet managers to monitor their vehicles in real-time, enabling them to optimise routes, improve fuel efficiency, enhance driver safety, and reduce operational costs. The telematics software provides valuable insights into fleet performance and enables effective decision-making. No matter what type of fleet you manage — company cars, delivery motorbikes, or vans or HGVs for transport and logistics — telematics-enabled fleet management software can help provide the total visibility and insights you need.

Yes, we offer various options to keep your vehicles safe and secure. Our vehicle telematics product includes real-time tracking and hourly system heartbeat alerts when the vehicle is not in journey, allowing you to keep track of the GPS location and reduce the risk of vehicles being stolen. You can even add on remote immobilisation features to your tracker, allowing you to prevent the vehicle being moved by unauthorised persons.

We also provide Thatcham-approved trackers for keeping track of your vehicles and keeping your insurance premiums low. 

After installing GPS enabled trackers in each fleet vehicle, you can capture and analyse real-time telematics data on fleet movements, geofences, driver behaviour, and more. The tracker uses GPS to accurately pinpoint the location of the vehicle and transmits the information via the cellular network. Fleet managers can access the fleet management system’s intuitive dashboard showing real-time maps and vehicle information via their internet browser. 

The fleet management software includes powerful analytics capabilities that enable fleet managers to analyse the collected data and generate insightful reports. These reports can provide valuable insights into driver performance, fuel efficiency, route optimisation, and overall fleet productivity.

The fleet management software also can generate real-time alerts based on predefined parameters and events. Fleet managers can receive notifications for speeding, excessive idling, unauthorised vehicle use, and other customisable alerts. 

Integrating 4G dash cams into fleet tracking systems offers numerous benefits for fleet management. Firstly, the presence of 4G cameras contributes to a reduction in accident rates. The visibility provided by these cameras can act as a deterrent, encouraging drivers to exercise caution and adhere to road safety regulations. 

These advanced cameras also provide real-time video recording of events, allowing fleet managers to have visual documentation of incidents on the road. The footage captured by the dash cams can be invaluable in determining fault or liability in case of accidents or disputes.

In addition to event recording, the integration of dash cams assists in driver behaviour analysis. Fleet managers can review the recorded footage to monitor and evaluate driver performance, identifying areas that require improvement or training. By analysing factors such as harsh braking, rapid acceleration, or aggressive cornering, fleet managers can provide targeted coaching and incentivise safe driving practices among their drivers.
