Avis clients sur Verizon Connect

Avantages

Parfois, on arrive à localiser le véhicule

Inconvénients

Le service client est désastreux et malhonnête.
Mieux vaut ne pas avoir de soucis de géoloc, car avant de le résoudre, plusieurs mois s'écouleront.
Le service client est formaté au même discours, il ne comprend rien à vos demaandes.

Avantages

sa fiiabilitéVerizon a été très professionnel tout au long de ce processus et a respecté ses engagements et ses nominations. Lorsque nous avons des problèmes, le service client est toujours à portée de main.Nous sommes en mesure de surveiller tout type de vitesse et également l'utilisation non autorisée de véhicules. Nous sommes également en mesure de voir où se trouvent nos véhicules et de ne pas perdre un appel téléphonique.

Inconvénients

Je pense que le service mensuel est trop cher. Il semble que vous pourriez peut-être obtenir des incitations ou des réductions de prix.

Avantages

La possibilité de mettre des badges d’identification conducteur

Inconvénients

Mauvais service client, pas de remonter de prise Obd comme vendu par le commercial, renouvellement de contrat alors que le délai de prévenance de 2 mois a été respecté, service installation désorganisé, impossible de les joindre, impossible de résoudre les problèmes et on continue à recevoir les factures même pour les services qu’ils sont incapables de fournir.

Avantages

Verizon est très fort commercialement et arrive à vous vendre un produit qui semble qualitatif, et fonctionnel.

Inconvénients

Verizon est injoignable, très compliqué pour résilier, ou faire déposer du matériel lors de vente de véhicule. Il facture leur client, pour des véhicules vendus, et même plusieurs mois (bientôt années) leur client à la suite de la résiliation du compte.
Aucun service client digne de ce nom pour vous aider dans vos problématiques, on fait toujours passer le message au "service concerné" qui ne vous rappellera jamais.

Avantages

// pas de véritable avantage à utiliser ce logiciel

Inconvénients

Service client inexistant, contrat résilié en 2018 et arrêt des prélèvement en juin 2023!!!! ne veulent pas rembourser les trop-perçus, insistent pour faire signer de nouveaux engagements, personnel peu fiable, aucun rappel à part du service commercial.

Avantages

We've been using Fleetmatics, now Verizon Reveal, for years. We initially signed up with them because we wanted to keep track of what employees were doing in our company vehicles, but this software is capable of so much more. From tracking our oil changes to sending us alerts when employees are speeding, we use this every day. The customer service is amazing also, and there's a pretty nice referral program.

Inconvénients

It recently went through a revamp, and we did a training for the new system about a year before it was actually released. It was a little bit of a messy transition, but once we downloaded the new apps to our phones and got over the hump of getting everyone back on the same page, it's been amazing. The upgraded graphical user interface and new features are great.

Avantages

Easy to set up and easy to use. Also simple to teach new team members the ins and outs of the product.

Inconvénients

Would have liked an easier solution to installing the transponder in the vehicle

Avantages

We liked Fleetmatics. We liked that power units and trailers could go on one page. We liked the reports the program offered. The Irish were friendly, and easy to work with. They were always knowledgeable, and helpful.

Inconvénients

The tablets lost connection with the truck in no cell service areas. Verizon never announced updates. When updates occurred, they would interfere (take presidence) over the logbook in use, blocking drivers from logging in/out from breaks, and creating excessive unassigned miles. The gps would say 195 miles when we travelled 12 miles, not accurate. A vehicle we did not own showed up in our fleet. Vin numbers and vehicle data came up missing. Very unpredictable and inaccurate data. Portions of the program were inop for long periods of time. Notifications for events occurring in the future, how does that happen? Techs support not all on the same page as far as procedure when we called in. Some fixed things, others said there was no fix. Clearly not all trained, and the gap is huge. Some were argumentative.

Avantages

Great service for the last two years with no issues or complaints.

Inconvénients

The price could be a little cheaper and more friendlier for the consumer.

Avantages

Verizon connect it's one of the most accurate GPS tracking programs I've ever used. It allows me to keep track my employees as they are in the field to ensure their safety which is my number one goal

Inconvénients

There's nothing I did not like about Verizon connect this is an amazing program and I highly recommend it

Avantages

Nothing. Do not waste your time on buying this service.

Inconvénients

It is a horrible service and company to work with. See further details in the next question.

Avantages

Very little. I feel the agent that sold us our system outright lied about the features. The GPS/Vehicle tracking seems to work fine most of the time, but you must have the vehicle on and running, it relies on an SD card mounted in the camera. Translation: if the camera gets stolen, there goes your data and video. Verizon seems decidedly low tech and low feature when compared against competitors.

Inconvénients

Where do I start? First, they made a mess of the initial shipping and order. I'm fighting a frustrating battle to even complete my system, and they tell me they're on back order for all units. Second, it lacks real-time communication with the drivers. I cannot even look at the driver camera in real-time, I must request a clip, which takes some time to download/deliver. Third, I cannot access video unless the truck remains on and running due to the SD card and camera needing power to operate. Fourth, the devices seem to cause electronic malfunctions in all of our vehicles, including battery drain.

Pourquoi passer à Verizon Connect

The Verizon agent lied and stated that Verizon contained the same capabilities as their competitors. In addition, Verizon offered a comparatively lower price per unit.

Avantages

The sales process was great of course, they want your money. They're quick to respond, call you everyday following up, but once you've purchased the service the customer service is the worst I've ever experienced.

Inconvénients

No one will email you back or return your calls. The customer service number is just a call center of people who don't seem to understand the software enough to even help you. They have to transfer you to multiple people to get you to someone who understands it enough to help. Truly the worst service I've dealt with.

Avantages

It updates very quickly where driver locations are.

Inconvénients

There is nothing I dislike about this product.

Avantages

Originally, we believed that the Verizon name taking over Fleetmatics would be fantastic for this product, however we were greatly disappointed and I struggle to find a "Pro" to highlight. The best thing I can come up with is our account rep. We had to weather quite a storm to get to him, he is our 6th P.O.C. representative in the 18 months we have been under contract but now that we have been paired with him it is nice to have someone who at least listens and attempts to help our fleet of 350 trucks and 450 drivers.

Inconvénients

Well I will apologize from the start regarding the length of my statement, however, there are quite a few MAJOR issues that all perspective buyers should be aware of with this system.

Accuracy of reporting - We use this system to submit IFTA mileage to the government, however there is no dedicated IFTA reporting (as we were promised in the trial process) and the reports they do offer often resemble being blindfolded and tossing some thumb tacks at a map. We regularly show one truck with miles traveled in Ohio, Indiana and Florida...no other states, so I have clue how Verizon claims this truck (that runs a route to a from Ohio and Indiana daily with no other activity) makes it from Ohio and Indiana all the way to Florida, without registering travel mileage in any other state?!

We also run into reports of trucks speeding on roads that show speed limits of 33mph, 37mph, 42 mph and 67mph. While I have not been able to travel to all 50 states in the US, I have yet to be able to find one of these speed limit signs posted, even with the help of all drivers in our company.

Firmware/Software/Mobile App - There is a new update to the trucks or the mobile app every other day, and some of the worst customer support to administer these updates, often doing only half the job hanging you out to dry and to defend yourself against the FMCSA/DOT violations you receive for running an incomplete ELD. BUYER BEWARE! There is SO MUCH MORE to explain but I am running out of characte

Avantages

We are able to see the location of our vehicles and assets. This came in handy when we had a vehicle stolen 2 years ago. The geofence and harsh driving reports alerted us to the fact that it had been stolen. We were able to recover the vehicle quickly and provide the reports for the criminal investigation.

Inconvénients

The software is not an issue, the problems are within the organization. The left hand does not know what the right hand is doing. We have had at least 6 representatives in the past 4 years. Requests have been dropped, we ended up getting charged for a whole year for a unit that was supposed to have been cancelled. No matter what I provided in the way of email threads and documentation on the requests I had sent to cancel the unit at the point of expiry, I was told that because the documents were not completed on their end for the cancellation, the best they could do was to put in for a cancellation at the end of the next year. I could not get to speak to a manager or someone with any authority no matter how many times I requested it. In another instance we had decide to add the non powered asset trackers to some of our equipment. It took 3 months for the units to arrive and then another month to solve the install and activation issues. We were promised credits and never received any. Every time we have needed to add a new unit or make a change the process is agonizing as we have had to work with multiple departments and it seems like none of them are connected or have all of the information. We have had issues with payments not being applied to our account that have disrupted our service with no compensation. The list goes on really. If we weren't stuck in a contract on several trucks and pieces of equipment we would have ditched this system long ago.

Avantages

Didn’t like anything about Verizon connect. Right from the start the installer destroyed my truck. They have horrible customer service run you around in circles until you get tired and give up. You will need to contact the[sensitive content hidden] of the company to get anything resolved. Poor quality, Chinese import hardware, and very difficult to use software. They just wanna sell you all the extras.

Inconvénients

The customer service Has it was to be the worst I’ve ever experienced in my life out of any company ever. I literally had to contact the [sensitive content hidden] of operations in order to get anything resolved. They will charge you for service you will not get.

Avantages

I loved how easy it was to navigate and filter to find the invoice/ticket/customer that I needed really fast. I loved how I could keep whatever information I needed with customized info boxes. Dispatching out to Employees was easy and the old App for the Techs out in the field could do many things. IT worked great on the desktop end.

Inconvénients

When we 1st signed on we were promised that the program would keep track of our inventory. We are a HVAC business and we have a lot of parts to keep track of. It wasn't working great when we started and the old app was ok with it. Then they Upgraded and had a new App and they completely trashed the inventory program and didn't tell us.
Since we are located with lots of country and rural areas we were told that the app can work offline and update the main programs once it got back in data range. This has never worked properly and my Techs were calling me to update their tickets because the app wasn't working.
The New App upgrade came everything went downhill. Techs could no longer create their own jobs (and we have Techs for on-call weekends) Techs could no longer show discounts to the customers on the invoice. The app still didn't work out in rural areas. It doesn't not work very well on the Mobile end.
Everytime I had Customer service on the line they tried their best, but since everything that we as a company needed they couldn't provide we didn't want to stay with them.

Avantages

Been able to track vehicles when it actually worked and detailed reporting where necessary.

Inconvénients

Reporting false location and telemetry. The car was parked in the workers home driveway of the home, (Physically inspected). The Verizon Connect System revealed the car was parked in the local park some 1klm away. Not very accurate reporting at all. Transponder Unit eventually swapped.

Another device reported a truck driver doing excessive speeds, however the truck has a speed limiter and was simply not possible to do that speed on the suggested road way when the device said it was in the middle of bushland where there are no roads.

Getting a detailed report can be slow if your downloading it and waiting for it to compile. Sometimes it would freeze up despite running all day. Most times, Had to close the browser and restart. Other times it was a little faster and did deliver the report.

Avantages

The User interface, reliability of the devices and accuracy of the tracking is unmached

Inconvénients

The customer service and response is absolutely terrible.

Avantages

Allows me to spend less time on fleet management and more time on other duties. Allows for driver accountability. Before we used manual logs to write in mileage. There were many gaps. Vehicles would be driven 100s of miles with no documentation of where they had been. We were also able to identify dangerous driving habits (90+ mph with a vehicle load of students!). We use it to provide dynamic routing to pickup students that have had their off-site schedule change. Finally, I have a good handle on maintenance and vehicles are serviced on time, because I can plan ahead. We even use it to track car washings. Training is great, customer service has always help me out in that regard.

Inconvénients

There is no way to easily display current mileage. You must go into the edit vehicle function to display current mileage. There is no way to display the mileage of the vehicle during a trip. It will display the mileage traveled during the trip but not the actual vehicle odometer reading. Not a huge deal, but there are times where it might be useful (forgot to write down mileage of service that I performed in-house). Calculated mileage will drift over time, sometimes by a few hundred miles, so you should be adjusting about once a month by comparing actual vehicle mileage with program calculated. Add a driver as user is challenging if driver is not defined as a user first. Customer service is usual great, but it took me almost a month to get additional fobs last time.

Inconvénients

there is zero customer service, they are never available and unfortunately, they are needed far too often.

The glitches are extremely bad and due to a software "error" on the invoice side, i have lost thousands of pounds. when making a complaint i managed to finally get to a director who promised me he would look into it and almost a week later he said, "the system doesn't work the way you want it to" and fobbed me off with no help, i threatened to sue them and he practically said bring it on. this company is by far the worst experience I have ever, ever had the displeasure to have been suckered into. after making the complaint i find myself locked out of the account and no one available to sort the issue. I can guarantee that they have yet again messed up the payments (which happens so frequently) they didn’t charge me for 6 months, and then called up and threatened to cut me off when they are the ones responsible for taking payments.

Whatever you do find another company, this one will sell the software as the best thing ever, sign you up to a contract and once you've signed it tell you its for 3 years and there is no way of getting out of it.

I could mention so many more things that are wrong about this company, but if you still buy it after reading this, good luck to you, you will need it.

Avantages

I like how I can see all of the trucks on the map. I can hover over one of the icons and it will tell me where they are, how fast they going and who is driving. It also tells me how long they have idleing. I am constantly using the "Find Nearest" option as well, this gives the ability to tell customers exactly when the truck will be arriving on site. Overall We are happy with this platform.

Inconvénients

The replay option. I dislike this feature. One reason being I have to watch the whole thing if I just need to see how long the last run took. On the timeline bar below I want to be able to slide that to whatever time frame I need to watch.

Avantages

Nothing. absolutely nothing. the only thing that works is the geofencing. Everything else is complete trash.

Inconvénients

There is no real time tracking. The GPS is so inaccurate is simply beyond me why Verizon Connect is allowed to sell such an unsuccessful product. The GPS tracking is broken.
