Reading Time: < 1 minutes

Redtail Press Release

A survey conducted by Redtail Telematics, the long-established provider of integrated telematics solutions worldwide for the automotive, insurance and fleet sectors, and YouGov reveals that insurers are missing opportunities to win new telematics motor insurance customers.

Tampa Bay Limo

"We’ve got a good customer who sends us a lot of business – but one of their fares was difficult. Our guy was 20 minutes early, but there was some kind of miscommunication, and the fare never hooked-up with him and claimed he wasn’t there, so consequently we weren’t going to get paid. I didn’t care about the money so much, but I definitely care about our good name!

So, I reached out to Redtail, and thanks to their GPS Total Solution, they e-mailed me time-stamps to show my guy was right where he was supposed to be – not only on time but early! They apologized and paid, thanks to Redtail’s outstanding technology."

"We have 100 Redtail GPS devices and plan to buy more – our company is growing, and as we acquire other businesses we plan to outfit those trucks as well. We especially appreciate the pricing flexibility of the various Redtail service plans. We chose five minute screenshots, which have a lower monthly rate than other GPS companies quoted.

The Redtail customer service and tech support have been great, and we have achieved fuel savings. We’ve had a very good experience with Redtail."

"I’m proud to say I was REDTAIL’s first Rep, and I’ve had a lot of success selling REDTAIL to my dealers in New Jersey and New York. For one thing, the company is becoming very well known as a major player in the fleet management business. Some of my dealers have fleet business, while others sell REDTAIL direct to end-users.

The hardware is an easy hookup and the UI is just as user friendly as REDTAIL’s customer service! I would encourage any manufacturers’ representatives – Rep Firms – who are interested in learning more about Fleet Tracking to give REDTAIL a call, or send an email to sales@redtailtelematics.com."

Stringer Transports

"With the second stolen truck we could track its route and all of its stops around Oklahoma City. In 20/20 hindsight we could have set a geo-fence around it and probably nabbed the thief. But it turned out to be a good move just taking our truck back when we did - because a tornado ripped through that neighborhood a couple of days later, and we would have lost it if we’d waited.

The Redtail GPS tracking works really well for stolen vehicle recovery. We love it – I’m putting one on my restored ’79 Trans Am."

Zen-tinel

"Zen-tinel has been a business partner with REDTAIL for many years now as our high tech products complement each other in the school bus market.  We have also had a very good experience as a REDTAIL Reseller.

One key selling point in the bus market is REDTAIL’s annual service program, which comes with two months free of service, since school buses typically don’t run in the Summer. Another benefit is the idling alert - many states do not allow buses to idle for more than 5 minutes, and our customers in Pittsburgh really appreciate the heads-up."

REDTAIL Telematics came to my attention in the very early days of Usage-Based Insurance when young driver coaching and their technology was used to help launch UBI pioneer ingenie. Their products and services have proved insightful and robust, and have evolved with markets as diverse as vehicle tracking, all aspects of fleet management, and most latterly the demands of monetising the connected vehicle.

Throughout their solutions have been quality first, scalable and adaptable to vertical or geography – a true technology and commercial partner.

Unigarant

"We began working with Redtail in 2016 and from the outset were impressed by their responsive approach to customers in creating our first OBD offering ahead of planned schedule, which they only achieved by over the top efforts.  The Redtail OBD product has proved to be very high quality and reliable, enabling us to experience far better than average product return rates for the industry.

Their deliveries have always been 100% to time or even better, despite some unexpected orders. That marks a good partnership. It’s not only technology, it’s also the way we got to know Redtail as a company - thinking ahead and putting real effort in to getting things done, with a solution oriented approach, even with the unexpected."

ingenie

"Since our launch in 2011 REDTAIL has been a valued ingenie partner.  As a specialist in the young driver market ingenie needed a highly reliable and accurate fitted telematics device capable of capturing driving events at a much higher data frequency than much of the competition and REDTAIL worked with us to create and deliver a unique device specification.

Our Partnership with REDTAIL has delivered the accuracy of data we need, enabling us to create and evolve proprietary algorithms and scoring which are proven to be highly predictive of loss and deliver market leading loss ratios for our underwriters."

AB Construction

"Our company sells and erects pre-engineered steel buildings and we run a small fleet. I’m very happy with Redtail GPS. I saved enough in the first week to pay for the tracker and service after terminating three drivers who were late for work, falsifying timesheets and making unauthorized use of the vehicle. The remaining employees are more productive now just knowing that we use Redtail. It’s very user-friendly and easy to install.

We don’t get great cell coverage where we are but it’s been Johnny on the spot. It showed me both addresses at a job site based on where the truck was parked: it’s that precise! I use it with my iPad and plan to order another unit. Highly recommended."

The whole Redtail team has been outstanding to work with and we look forward to a long relationship."

"When the first truck was stolen we were running the Redtail GPS on it so we knew exactly where it was: in the back of a trailer park. We called the police so they could be there to supervise the recovery of our stolen property. The officer was skeptical: how do you know it’s there he asked.

I showed him on my smartphone: it’s right here, on such-and-such a road. Those things could be a mile off said the policeman. I said I’ve never known that to happen. So we all went back there and retrieved our truck – exactly where Redtail said it was."

"I had a great experience with the Redtail tracking units and the personnel representing them. The products arrived at the customer's office in a timely fashion, making it easy to complete the job without any issues. In addition, the units logged-on to the system quickly, making it easy to move on and get the vehicles back on the road for the customer.

Finally, the extras that came in the packages were a great bonus (zip ties, star washer, and Velcro). To sum this up, great product and great personnel. I look forward to working with this company more in the future."

"We compared two different solutions before choosing Redtail GPS. We are experiencing fuel savings from a number of habits that are changing. The guys are not leaving the job sites early. They are taking the most direct route back at night. We can run a report to see how many times we are going to the parts store and have come up with a plan to reduce these trips.

I would recommend the product and the staff!"

Our van was stolen on Saturday morning. It left the building at 6:38 am and the technician arrived at 8. We didn’t know if it was stolen or if a driver had borrowed it, but by 10 we realized it was stolen. The tech logged on and tracked it. We found it was driving around and then parked for 6 minutes. Cops were dispatched and arrested 5 people in the van.

Unfortunately, all our equipment and tools were already gone. We gave the cops a printout of all the stops the van made and they are going to follow up and try and retrieve them. As far as we’re concerned, the Redtail units just paid for themselves! We’re buying more."

REDTAIL boundary alerts and 24/7 location means that the bus system managers can be assured the buses don’t take unauthorized trips and are parked where they’re supposed to be on weekends.

Of course, one of the biggest REDTAIL benefits is their Team; they always provide the highest levels of service."
