They provide a whole host of benefits to both companies and individuals.<\/p>\n<p>For companies, a few standout benefits are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Route optimization<\/li>\n<li>Fuel savings<\/li>\n<li>Monitor employee behavior<\/li>\n<li>Increase customer satisfaction<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For people, they can be used to monitor other drivers (like teens), and reduce insurance costs.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>However, one of the best advantages of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.liveviewgps.com\/\">GPS tracking devices<\/a> comes with their ability to alert users due to a number of different conditions. They send a notification to your phone or computer so you can monitor your vehicle(s) wherever they are and know exactly what\u2019s happening, any time of day or night.<\/p>\n<p>The most common types of GPS tracking alerts include:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ignition Alerts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ignition alerts, also called alert on ignition events, send you a notification when any of your vehicle&#8217;s ignitions are turned on or off. You can control which alerts you receive (either, both, or none) to monitor the activity of any vehicles in your fleet or personal possession.<\/p>\n<p>This can help you detect vehicle theft, but it\u2019s also great for logging employee wages and vehicle mileage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Panic Alerts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Panic alerts require GPS tracking devices that include a panic button on the device. When the panic button is pressed, you\u2019ll receive an alert, signifying an emergency situation.<\/p>\n<p>Panic buttons allow users to quickly and easily send out an alert whenever they\u2019re in a dangerous, emergency situation. They are especially beneficial when emergency situations prevent users from dialing 911.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Geofence Alert<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A geofence is an extremely useful feature of many GPS tracking devices. They allow you to set up a virtual boundary for each of your tracking devices. When a device passes through the boundary, you\u2019ll receive a geofence alert.<\/p>\n<p>Your fence can be used to surround a route for a deliver, to help you monitor vehicle or equipment theft, and to monitor employee behavior and know if they are going off the designated route or job site.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.liveviewgps.com\/blog\/types-gps-fleet-tracking-alerts\/\">route alerts<\/a> can be set up by drawing a designated route, allowing you to receive a notification when someone deviates from it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Power Alert<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Power alerts tell you when a device is reaching a low battery and needs to be recharged.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Speed Alert<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you set up a speed alert, you\u2019ll receive an alert anytime a vehicle passes through the speed threshold. Some devices allow you to receive alerts whenever a vehicle exceeds the posted speed limit.<\/p>\n<p>To get your own GPS fleet tracking system for your business, call LiveView GPS today at\u00a0 1-888-544-0494, chat with us online during business hours, or send us an email.
