Spotfence Alert

A Spotfence alert tells you when a vehicle reaches a particular place — a customer site, depot or drop-off point. It's a geofence EVENT that triggers on arrival at a specific POI, so you always know when someone has reached the spot that matters.

Frequently asked questions

How is a Spotfence different from an entry/exit geofence?

A Spotfence is tied to a single specific point or POI and fires on arrival there. Entry/exit alerts watch a wider zone and can trigger on both crossing in and crossing out. Use a Spotfence when you care about one exact place.
