ELD Solution and A Lot More


Geowiz offers ELD compliant hardware and software built to work
together to provide seamless functionality alongside unsurpassed
support and service.



All for one of the lowest costs in the market at $169 per ECU device
and NO MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION.



Our hardware is a single small device, so no cables or different vendors
pointing fingers at each other.



The modem connects to 6 pin or 9 pin ECUs and can talk j1939 and
j1708, so you can support your entire fleet using the same great
functionality.



The Geowiz software runs on any modern Android or Apple mobile
device, so BYOD or buy new, whichever fits your current operating
model.

GEOWIZ ARCHITECTURE

 The Geowiz LTE ELD hardware is specially form factored to be low profile and unobtrusive, so it looks
great in your cab with minimal visual impact
 The plugin talks to your smart phone or tablet where you can see and interact with your logs
 You dont need to have 3/4G internet, but if you do your logs are backed up as needed to our cloud
database so you never lose data. If you only have WiFi your logs are backed up when you are on a
network.
