Quartix\u2019s Pay As You Go tracking service now incorporates Google Maps, including satellite and hybrid images.\u00a0Launched in April, Quartix Pay As You Go vehicle tracking already accounts for 67 per cent of the telematics company\u201ds overall sales.<\/p>\n
Managing director, Andy Walters, said: \u201cThis rapid rise is being driven by strong demand:\u00a0\u201cThe reason is straightforward: no-one wants to be tied to a long-term vehicle-tracking contract during a downturn. Quartix Pay-As-You-Go has proved to be just the right product at just the right time.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn 2010, we anticipate PAYG will account for 80 per cent of sales, with lease-finance and outright purchase taking up the remaining 20 per cent.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mr Walters said despite some criticism from competitors, the launch of Quartix Pay As Go had been met with \u201centhusiastic acceptance\u201d by customers \u2013 particularly those customers who had \u201csuffered as a result of financial failure or poor service from their previous telematics-system supplier.\u201d<\/p>\n
Following its launch, most interest in Quartix Pay As You Go was almost exclusively from the commercial sector. Today, the new payment option is also rapidly gaining ground across the public sector, attracting business from every type of organisation, including emergency services, NHS trusts and local authorities.<\/p>\n
Andy Walters predicts that within two years all vehicle tracking contracts will be based on a direct-rental model.\u00a0Meanwhile, he urges first-time buyers to remain cautious.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt remains a concern to me that first-time buyers of vehicle tracking systems still appear to be unaware of the risks they are assuming when agreeing to a lease finance agreement or pre-paying for telematics contracts,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
