General Usage of the Platform
How GSatTrack delivers best-in-class functionality
GSatTrack puts all of the data in an ecosystem into a single, powerful, centralized hub that accommodates all participants, assets, and stakeholders. GSatTrack is device agnostic, meaning it does not require users to track only certain types of hardware. In fact, the extensive catalog of data gathering devices currently integrated with GSatTrack is part of what makes the platform a welcome and seamless addition to any organization’s existing infrastructure, or the perfect cornerstone of a scratch-made data ecosystem. Use GSatTrack to monitor the location and behavior of personnel, smart devices, and nearly any satellite-based tracking hardware.
