What qualities does an asset tracking system have to make it stand out? When comparing IoT solutions on the market, you should consider four major C's: completeness, cost, cutting-edge, and customizability. Let’s look at these “four C’s,” why they matter, and how Link Labs achieves them!
Before explaining what qualities to look for in an asset tracking system, you must first realize the need for one. The reason companies implement asset tracking is to solve a need they have. Asset tracking systems show managers the location of their valuable assets in real-time. Different companies face different needs; one may use asset tracking to monitor their cold chain, while another is using it so they can reuse their shipping pallets.
Choosing an asset tracking solution that is complete can take you one step further than your competitors who don’t. An asset tracking solution that provides you with everything you need in a solution – hardware, software, data, UI, and reporting – saves you money and ensures that every piece works together properly, rather than trying to integrate separate parts of the system.
With seamless indoor and outdoor tracking, our AirFinder Everywhere solution removes the need for two separate systems. Link Labs provides you with everything you need to successfully launch your asset tracking platform with as little complexity as possible.
With all the technological advancements happening as quickly as they are, it’s important that the solution provider you choose stays up to date with their technology.
With over 30 patents, Link Labs offers one of the most, if not the most, cutting-edge real-time locating system (RTLS) on the market. Our solution combines GPS, Cellular, and WiFi sniffing technology to provide accurate information at an affordable cost. Our solution even gives you the option to adjust location and sensor update rates to work with what you need. You probably don’t need updated location information every second, but maybe every 5 minutes will suffice, or even just when movement occurs.
RTLS is a technology that enables systems to track assets actively in real-time rather than passively track them when they reach certain checkpoints.
Firstly, investing in an asset tracking system is a decision that will save your company money. This may seem contradictory since you have to spend money on an asset tracking system, but the ROI you see after just a year of use makes the investment worthwhile.
Part of the reason Link Labs products are so affordable is because of their lasting battery life. A longer battery life means fewer battery replacements. We even offer a rechargeable battery for those looking to save more money or simply have a more sustainable solution.
One of the most important qualities a great asset tracking system has is customizable reporting. Since every company uses asset tracking for something different, the data it provides also needs to be customizable. Going back to the earlier example, a company tracking their cold chain would prefer data on the temperature of the refer trailers instead of the other company that would rather have location information.
Link Labs works closely with users to ensure our systems and products best fit their needs. AirFinder Everywhere operates on a fully integrated, customizable system specifically designed for your company’s unique needs. Each company we work with has used our system differently.
Our AirFinder Everywhere asset tracking system is a complete, cost-effective, cutting-edge technology, customizable solution. We know how important your assets are to you, so not only did we create a solution to help you, we created the best solution for you.
