Locate Any Technician Vehicle, Anytime, Anywhere - 24/7
Tigerpaw and Networkcar team up to offer the next-generation of GPS tracking
Tigerpaw Software, Inc., (www.tigerpawsoftware.com), a leading developer of IT business management software, announced today its partnership with Networkcar® (www.networkcar.com), a leader in wireless vehicle management. Tigerpaw has teamed up with Networkcar to offer the ability to monitor technician vehicles using GPS technology. Tigerpaw will be offering Networkcar's product, Networkfleet®, as an additional companion product to its award-winning business automation software solution.
The new Tigerpaw integration to Networkfleet utilises Microsoft MapPoint® to provide users with a graphical view using the Dispatch Board feature. This indicates where technician vehicles are located and which technician is closest to any given service location as well as provides the ability to give turn-by-turn directions. Now service fleet managers can track technicians at any time, right within Tigerpaw in order to dispatch more efficiently with convenient zoom-in, zoom-out, and point-and-click integration via Microsoft MapPoint.
"TigerPaw's partnership with Networkcar gives companies even more options for improving the efficiency of their service operations," said Keith Schneider, president of Networkcar. "GPS tracking combined with workload and dispatch management is a powerful combination that helps companies provide superior customer service while reducing costs."
Integration between Tigerpaw and Networkcar will be available as an add-on with the enhanced release of Tigerpaw v10.6, shipping on December 31, 2007. GPS integration requires Microsoft MapPoint®.
