MCS Rental Software Expands Telematics Portfolio with Solutions from Geoforce and Samsara
Rental software provider MCS enhanced its telematics offering with two providers, Geoforce and Samsara. This development strengthens MCS’ commitment to providing cutting-edge solutions for rental businesses around the globe.
Geoforce offers asset tracking solutions and brings a wealth of expertise to MCS Rental Software users, allowing them to precisely monitor the location, condition, and utilization of their assets.
Samsara provides users with visibility to enhance rental operations with real-time GPS data, full vehicle tracking, integrated route optimization, and custom route analysis.
"The integration of Geoforce and Samsara into our telematics offering represents a strategic leap forward in our commitment to providing state-of-the-art rental solutions,” said Josh Lewis, president, MCS Rental Software. “We are allowing MCS users to track more of their equipment, while expanding the software’s accessibility to rental businesses worldwide. By incorporating Geoforce and Samsara into our portfolio, MCS reinforces its position as a trailblazer in comprehensive fleet and rental management.”
This expansion aligns with MCS' telematics network. By offering a range of solutions -- including those from Enigma Telematics, Teletrac, Eroad, Trackunit, JCB LiveLink, Quiktrak, Pinpoint, JobWatch, and Allsetra -- MCS empowers rental businesses with fleet management solutions.
The expanded MCS telematics portfolio, now inclusive of Geoforce and Samsara, is available for integration and deployment.
