Introduction:
Ever spent hours drawing geofences around delivery points? We get it — it’s a headache no fleet manager needs. That’s why we’re excited to share something that will make your day easier: Kestrel Insights now works right inside your Geotab dashboard, automatically creating polygon geofences with just an address or lat/long.
No more switching between systems or carefully hand tracing boundaries on a map. Just type in a location, and you’re done. It’s as simple as that. Your drivers stay focused on the road, you spend less time on tedious admin work, and everyone gets powerful real-time updates through the Geotab system you’re already using.
Whether you’re managing local deliveries or coordinating cross-country routes, this is about putting time back in your day for the things that really matter — like growing your business and keeping your customers happy.

Managing your fleet’s boundaries shouldn’t feel like an art project. You know the drill — those basic circle zones that miss half your facility, or the tedious task of drawing shapes around every site like you’re back in geometry class.
Where Geotab customers find the most value and ROI:
- Offset manual effort -> Here’s a simple ROI calculation — why pay your team to draw digital fences when they could be tackling real business challenges? Your staff’s time is worth more than pushing pixels around a map.
- Increase accuracy -> Nobody wins when your system shows false arrivals and departures. Clean, reliable data means you can finally trust what you’re seeing and make decisions with confidence. No more second-guessing if your drivers are really where the system says they are.
- Maximize your SaaS ROI -> Let’s talk about that hefty investment you made in your telematics platform. It’s a powerful tool, but remember — your system is only as powerful as your inputs. We’ll show you how to get the most from every dollar you spend.
- Enjoy robust coverage -> Whether you’re managing 10 sites or 10,000, our automation handles it all. And unlike manual drawing that could take weeks or months, we can set you up in no time. From mom-and-pop shops to enterprise fleets, we’ve got you covered.
FAQs
I already have a telematics solution. Are you replacing it?
Not at all. We’ve built integrations to leading telematics platforms like Geotab so that you can access our automated polygon geofences within your existing tech stack. Your team gets to continue with business as usual — but with access to the many benefits of advanced geofencing.
What if I want to continue leveraging circles for some use cases?
Not a problem. By leveraging “groups” we’re able to discern between geofences that need to be processed by our system and others that should remain circular.
What if I don’t have an address or lat/long?
No worries, Kestrel has the ability to source net new locations. Some examples include “Every Loves Travel Stop in Wyoming” and “Home Depot DCs in the Western United States.” The possibilities are endless!
Why should I invest in polygons?
Without a polygon geofencing strategy in place, you leave yourself and your company vulnerable to a gamut of problems: false arrivals, dirty backend data, and triggers/workflows that you can’t trust, just to name a few. The ROI is undoubtedly worth it.
I’m too small of a company.
That’s not the case. Kestrel offers flexible pricing plans for companies of all sizes, not to mention everyone can benefit from the capabilities of polygon geofences, big or small! Why now? There’s no better time than NOW. The longer you wait, the more time you’ll lose in forming a foundation that will become a pillar of your fleet and freight operations.
