Why Fleetcam Beats Out
Samsara, Lytx & Other Competitors

It’s important for fleet managers to be able to manage vehicles in real-time. Live streaming allows you to watch a vehicle’s video feed remotely in real-time. With Fleetcam, you can live stream up to 6 vehicles’ video feeds and save the videos for review later.

Since fleet managers can’t be in more than one place at one time, historical streaming allows them to view all the videos currently in the fleet cameras’ storage without having to physically access the vehicle. Additionally, many fleets are too large to all be live-streamed at the same time. Historical livestream solves this problem by allowing access to videos after the fact. Instead of watching what is currently happening, historical footage allows fleet managers to see what has happened in the past. Some competitors provide access to historical footage but you have to request access to it or are limited by how much video storage you have.

Safety is a number one concern for most fleet managers. Real-time in-cab alerts can save drivers’ lives and prevent accidents. With the FleetCam® driver monitoring system, Fleetcam uses a fleet dash camera and artificial intelligence to track the driver’s eye movement and behavior. Alerts from the in-cab device address both driver and vehicle behavior such as waking up drivers who are falling asleep, discouraging texting while driving, enforcing no-smoking policies and notifying drivers when they’re following a vehicle too closely and more. It also notifies the driver with a different voice command for each type of feedback. While most competitors provide real-time in-cab alerts, not all have voice commands and most are more limited in the scope of driver and vehicle behaviors they are able to catch.

Driver coaching is an essential part of a good fleet vehicle camera system. Integrating it into your solution can increase your fleet’s ROI and safety while decreasing liabilities, injuries, and expenses. Coaching is all about helping drivers make better choices when they’re on the road. FleetCam® makes it easy to ensure drivers are receiving the coaching they need while helping managers spot recurring problems and patterns. Help keep crews, equipment, CSA scores and reputations safe by helping customers monitor driver performances and correcting poor behavior.

Analytics allows fleet managers to pinpoint areas to improve fleet performance, driver behaviors, and overall operations. This data not only saves fleet managers time and money, but also decreases liability and increases driver safety, reliability, and satisfaction. Fleet managers are able to see trends that can be compared month over month or by a particular date range. This allows managers to be able to quickly identify problem behaviors across the fleet or with a particular driver. Advanced fleet vehicle camera system analytics allow fleet managers to run a safer, happier fleet.

When looking into a fleet vehicle camera system, you’ll want to see if the company provides service where they review every event that is uploaded. This helps to be able to identify the actual severity of the events that take place. For example, a person can identify when someone hits the brake too hard to avoid a pedestrian that runs out into the road vs. just reckless driving. This allows people to work more harmoniously with the AI in the system. People + AI is better than just people or just AI. AI is needed because people can’t be there all the time, but people still have more intelligence and context to better evaluate some situations.

In addition to high-quality camera visuals and audio, fleet managers will also want to track the location of their fleet vehicles. Location tracking allows fleet managers to monitor vehicles on specific parts of their route and increase operational efficiency and service speed. In fact, you may no longer need a standard tracking device. With Fleetcam, you can replace your standard telemetry device with a video telematics device and save on a data service plan.
