Get started by simply marking out the desired geofencing zone on our map with an easy drawing tool.

Next, establish the rules for each zone. In mandatory mode, the vehicles must be inside the defined zone during the designated times; in prohibited mode, they must not enter the zone.

For example, you may want to ensure that employees are not returning home during the working day. To do this, designate the driver’s home as a ‘Named Location: Prohibited Zone’ on weekdays between 8:00 am and 6:00 pm.

If you wish to know whether your vehicles remain within the city boundary at all times, create a geofence around the city and set it as a mandatory zone. Any vehicles that leave the zone will trigger an alert.

Reassure your staff  that the Quartix system is designed to benefit everyone. Tracking helps improve efficiency, reduce unnecessary mileage, and promote safer driving habits, all while ensuring fair and accurate job assignments. Many teams find that it actually reduces the need for check-in calls and helps build trust. See our benefits for drivers.

“In the past, I would have to call or text my driver to find out their location. Now, I can simply look at the app on my phone and know instantly where they are.”
