Tracing for our business
Having a construction company, we need to be careful with our tools and trailers. This year we were robbed and lost over $20,000 in tools. This little tracker is a great way to track movement in our trailers during the night and weekends, and know exactly where it is with our crews. Set up was easy and getting it to start tracking was with a push of one button. It's small and simple to mount. It needs to be facing up for accurate tracing. I've been pretty impressed so far and am looking into getting more for our other trailers. The SPOT trace app is easy to navigate and you can see exactly were your tracker is very accurately. It has a history function too which is great for using with our crews, it shows where they have been throughout the day. I could see this would be great for teen drivers and for tracking other valuable items.
Perfect for what I need
I have to say I love this tracker. I just got it for the purpose of tracking my vehicle. With theft in our area in the rise and my children just getting to the age of driving on their own, it made sense to get the tracker now. I have it mounted in the spare tire compartment of our vehicle. It's super lightweight and small making it easy to conceal. I wanted to put it somewhere that wouldn't be easily detected so in the event of theft, I would be able to locate it easily. Because I use it everyday to track driving I get alerts when the vehicle is in the move and I can see exactly on the map where it it. My favorite feature of the app is the map and how clear it displays. I can see exactly where it has been too. The map has standard and satellite view. Toggling between the two of them is as fast as tapping the screen. The zoom is awesome! I love this tracker and highly recommend it.
Easy to Configure
Pros: 1. The quality looks premium and the device is handy and compact 2. The registration and installation is quite easy. 3. 24 hours monitoring and theft protection for your valuable object (in my case it was my car) and notifies when the object is on move. 4. Good battery life. 5. Gives you the option to power the device with usb source. Cons 1. A lot of people complaint about higher subscription cost. 2. Will face some issue if the device is not mounted skywards . 3. The gps signal suffers when there obstruction between the device and the sky.( Open roof is recommended).
Great for tracking your kids!
I honestly thought this navigation system would be complicated to install, like pulling wires out or even opening the hood (I’m a total girl when it comes to car stuff, I know nothing). So, I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to install! It comes with a mounting kit, and if you’re using it to track without the other person being aware (such as knowing where your teenager is), then you can mount it anywhere hidden in the car OR skip the mount altogether and just throw it under a seat or in the glovebox! The best part? You get an email (there’s also an app) every time it moves and you can click and follow it on a map! It couldn’t be any easier!
Always Know Where Your Boat Is
The Spot Trace was incredibly easy to use. We had absolutely no problem getting started, downloading the app on our phone, and setting it up. The GPS can also be accessed on a computer. There were no snags whatsoever with tracking our boat either on our phone or on the. Both worked seamlessly and have great maps that can zoom in to within a few feet. Obviously this will be good for security, in case the boat were to ever get stolen, but it is also great for someone on shore keeping track of us when we go out to sea.
Great Tracking Device
Whether you want to put a tracking device in your child's backpack, on your motorcycle, boat, RV, car, or expensive equipment. This product is easy to set up. The service does require a one year commitment. For the purpose of reviewing the device, I put it in my purse so that I could actively test its location anytime I went some where. Anytime, my purse moved, I would get an email notification stating the device has moved. I could click on the link and could easily confirm that the device was within my immediate location. The only complaint that I have is the charging port isn't easily accessible. I've carried it in my purse for over a month and haven't had to recharge it yet. But when looking the device over after I received it, this was the first thing that I noticed. If you happen to be out in the woods, you should carry a solar charging system so that you can charge your device.
Spot Trace Makes Tracking Easier
The main thing that I want you to know that is the Spot tracer really does work well. I like sticking around somewhere, if I can. When I am traveling to other cities and or other states, I would put it in my coat pocket and my brother can look on my computer to track where I have been. He can see on the computer what other city and or state that I am located in. And if you are riding on a bicycle you can probably just put your Spot Trace in your water bottle. And also, I've used Velcro to stick it on my belt sometimes, when I am walking around the block.
Peace of Mind
The SPOT Trace has given me peace of mind in the last couple of weeks since purchasing. I live in a very rural town and my husband likes to go hunting out in the woods which is in the middle of nowhere with very shoddy cell phone service. So this device allows me peace of mind in knowing that just in case something were to happen to him, I'd at least know the last known location of his whereabouts. It's also a great device to have on hand in your vehicle in case it ever gets stolen. I keep mine in the side panel of the door and it works perfectly. Thanks for the peace of mind SPOT! :)
Perfect for My Business
After having a few employees use the company trucks for personal errands I knew I had to deter them away for this as insurance won't cover the truck for personal use. Keeping a tracker's in the trucks has not only allowed me to keep an eye on the employees, but also, it has allowed me to start altering the routes that I have been sending the drivers on. When it comes to the setup I had no issues, and even had a nice promo code to use for a discount. These devices are nice, and discreet allowing me to not have to worry about them getting caught and played with.
Recovered my stolen vehicle with Seattle Police!
Thanks to Spot trace, we were able to recover my vehicle in Seattle, the updates are hella slow (like one every 5 mins) and I wish u can change it to be more frequent from your phone but when the vehicle was parked we were able to locate it and pick it up. Saved me 10s of thousands of dollars or haggling with insurance company and all. Well worth the monthly membership cost
