Data Trak Daily Inspections digitises the vehicle defect card by allowing drivers to complete a HGV driver daily walk around check from their smart phone. Historically, all previous checks had to be completed manually, which is time consuming and not to mention expensive. Easily track employee hours, time off, expenses โ whatever you need to run your business. Get started with a simple mobile app or integrate Data Trak Timesheets with your existing systems. Data Trak Tracking enables transport companies to view the live locations of their fleet and find out where they have been on any given day. It delivers much more than simply tracking of vehicles as the system allows users to understand how their mobile workforce operates - highlighting how much time is spent on site and how much in the vehicle.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: VINPODs at every 3 days against Data's every 3 months. Data's advantage is iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
