Most tracking-system demos look the same. Someone shares a screen, vehicles belonging to another company move across a map, and the charts show metrics with nothing familiar to compare them to. You leave knowing the platform has a lot of features. You do not leave knowing which of them solve the problem you came with.
So we run the demo differently: one vehicle from your fleet, configured as if the rollout had already started.
Which vehicle to pick
A typical one, not the best one. Average mileage, routes representative of the fleet, and a driver who is not more aware of being watched than usual. A demo on the best-run vehicle produces results that cannot be repeated at full rollout — and that is the most common mistake at this stage.
If the fleet is not uniform, two vehicles beat one: a suspect one and a reference one. Comparing two vehicles on similar routes says more than the chart of a single one, because it shows the spread rather than an absolute value. With a mixed fleet — cars and trucks — take one of each, because installation, the range of available readings and the reports that make sense differ more between those categories than between brands.
The duty to inform applies during a trial too
A trial period is not an exemption from the rules. From day one you need the monitoring recorded in the work rules or an official notice, the employee informed in advance, and the vehicle marked. That holds for one car over two weeks as much as for a whole fleet.
We help prepare the wording, because this is the most common reason a demo stalls — not the technology, but the missing basis for switching it on. In Poland the requirement follows from the Labour Code and the GDPR.
What happens to the data and the hardware afterwards
If you go ahead with the rollout, the tracker stays in the vehicle and joins the order, and the configuration — geofences, alerts and reports — moves to the production account. You do not start from an empty screen and you do not lose weeks of setup.
If you do not, we collect the device and close the demo account. Trial-period data is deleted on request immediately, and otherwise when the account is closed. Access to the platform during the trial is free — the cost on your side is the device and its installation.
What happens next
After the demo you get a fleet-wide quote broken into components — devices, fitting, SIM cards, platform licence — so one-off costs are separated from the subscription. How we calculate it is on the GPS monitoring pricing page, and the full scope of the service is on GPS fleet tracking.
If the demo goes badly, that is also an answer. Better to get it on one vehicle than on forty.
Frequently asked questions
Is the demo paid?
Platform access during the trial is free. What the customer covers is the device and its fitting — if the demo leads to a rollout, the tracker stays in the vehicle and becomes part of the order. If it does not, we collect the device.
How long does a demo run?
Usually 2–4 weeks. Less than two weeks is not worth doing: the first days go on threshold calibration and getting used to the reports, and a trustworthy picture of fuel use and driving style needs at least a dozen trips.
Can I see the platform without fitting anything?
Yes — we walk through a demonstration account on a call. One caveat: a walkthrough of another company's fleet answers "what can the platform do", not "what will my company use". So we offer it as a first step rather than as the basis for a decision.
Which vehicle should I pick?
A typical one, not the best one. Average mileage, routes representative of the fleet. A demo on your best-run vehicle produces numbers that a full rollout cannot reproduce — the most common mistake at this stage.
Do drivers have to be told during a demo?
Yes. The duty to inform applies from day one, trial included: wording in the work rules or a notice, informing the employee, and marking the vehicle. We help prepare those documents.
