IVMS and Driver Resistance
Installing IVMS/ GPS Tracking into a vehicle brings two potentially conflicting aspects into contact with each other: an individual’s need for privacy, and a company’s need to protect its drivers’ safety and its vehicles against abuse and unauthorised trips. Digicore has rolled out IVMS/ GPS Tracking into many businesses…
The role of a tri-axial accelerometer in an IVMS system

IVMS and law enforcement – where should the line be drawn?

Digicore – IVMS Compliance with No Lock in Contracts
Digicore does not believe in locking customers into contracts – nobody should have to pay for something they don’t want! Most of our competitors require their customers to sign up a period of 2 years and we think this is patently unfair. Circumstances change, and if our customers have their…

Renting an IVMS unit
We sometimes get asked by our IVMS customers if they can rent units from us. We understand the difference between capex and opex and believe that we should give our customers this choice. The most common enquiry is for portable IVMS from subcontractors that win short-term mining contracts, but we…
IVMS in difficult times – a good idea or not?
IVMS comes cheaper than what it used to, but it is still is an expense and, in difficult times, should this perhaps be cancelled or at least deferred? Definitely not! One of our major clients in Queensland turned their IVMS off when the coal price collapsed around 2010. No sooner…
Commercial Grade Dash Cameras
The difference between what would be considered consumer grade and what would be deemed commercial grade can sometimes be hard to define. In most definitions it comes down to being fit for purpose, but what does this really mean? Commercial grade equipment tends to require higher quality parts designed to…

The product is excellent, pricing is very competitive but more importantly their product knowledge and support is second to none.”
