Geotab Expands Reach into Germany with Strategic Partnerships

Geotab has announced a new partnership with Telefónica Germany and Sixt Leasing designed to eliminate waste by providing drivers with a one-click way to log each trip as personal or business.    

The relationship coincides with Geotab’s launch of its fleet management solution with Telefónica Germany.

Under this expanded partnership, Telefónica will use Geotab’s GO7 module and MyGeotab software for its fleet management products, which provide fleet owners with real-time engine data and other information, enabling them to maximize efficiency and productivity.

“We are proud that in our partnership with Telefónica Germany, our end-to-end fleet management solutions will allow users to reap the valuable benefits of functionality and quality,” said Neil Cawse, Geotab CEO.

“Informative decision-making in telematics is necessary for operational success, and with access to real time data, comprehensive reporting and robust diagnostics, users of Telefónica Germany will achieve new efficiencies in fleet management,” said Timo von Lepel, Director B2B at Telefonica Germany.

Telefónica Germany also will provide cellular service for the GO7 modules that support Driver’s Logbook, Sixt Leasing’s new smartphone app that automatically prompts drivers at the end of each trip to categorize it as work or personal.   If they don’t, the app reminds them at the end of the week and provides a list of trips. This information is compiled and made available to drivers at the end of each year so they have an accurate record at tax time.
