Wialon
Wialon is Gurtam’s fleet digitalization and management platform for tracking vehicles and overseeing operations. It provides real-time asset tracking, customizable dashboards, alerts, advanced reports, fuel management, geofencing, route optimization, and video telematics. The platform also lists maintenance, driver-safety, and compliance tools. Wialon supports more than 4,100 GPS device models from over 700 manufacturers. Its SDK and open API enable custom integrations, and the Marketplace lists 128 community-created apps and integrations. Organizations can use cloud-based Wialon or run server-based software on their own infrastructure, accessed through web or mobile applications. Products are delivered exclusively through telematics service providers, so fleet owners cannot buy directly from Wialon. There is no free plan, and pricing is provided on request. Non-partner telematics providers can request a trial through sales; existing partners can contact their Partner Success Manager. Gurtam states ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and ISO 9001:2015 compliance for its management system.
