Maven Product Spotlight
New: Maven Trailers Page in the Maven Fleet Portal
A new Trailers page in our Maven Fleet portal includes information on trailers, including the last known location of each trailer. There are also buttons at the top of the page to pull up a navigation bar for fast filtering and sorting.
The last known location of the trailer is determined from the last known location of the last tractor pulling the trailer. No additional tracking hardware is required.
Relevant information about trailers, such as their terminal, unit number, make, model, year, length, and whether or not they’re heated or have a liftgate is also available on this page.
Importantly, the last known stop date, stop time, and location, such as the stop or terminal, are easy to find on the page. Data can also be sorted, filtered, and searched to provide fleet managers and other users with quick access to any key information on trailers.
Results can be exported for reporting purposes, and this page can be easily used in conjunction with other pages on the fleet portal, such as the Drivers page
Please contact info@mavenmachines.com if you’re interested in having this feature enabled for your fleet. To learn more about other new and improved features from Maven, check out our July 2022 Product Updates blog post or feel free to connect with us.
