OpConnect vs Visual Drive

The OpConnect smartphone application lets users locate electric vehicle charging stations through a searchable map with GPS capability and pay for charging on those stations with an OpConnect account. The map enables users to view the status and availability of OpConnect managed chargers near their current location. Once a charging station is selected, driving directions are offered. Also, stations can be saved to the user’s favorites, allowing quick and easy access to the stations they use the most. Additional features include viewing charging session and billing history, managing payment cards, and editing their profile for OpConnect members

Visual Drive gives you feedback about your driving, helping you become a safer and better driver. Visual Drive automatically detects when driving starts and stops, and uses the phone’s sensors to measure your vehicle’s driving dynamics. It uses low-power sensing methods to reduce battery consumption. The app shows you trip summaries, details on maneuvers, and gives you useful feedback to become a better driver. It also acts a low-power logger of all of your driving trips. This version of the application supports the Visual Drive Tag device. By linking seamlessly with the smartphone app, the tag accurately calculates vehicle maneuvers. The Visual Drive tag requires a bluetooth connection. Visual Drive runs in the background and uses GPS. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. Visual Drive is intended for customers only. We request email, name and phone number to verify eligibility. Some customers may be asked to enter policy number and group ID (these fields are optional).
