Supplier
versus In-House Software.
Many companies believe that in
order to completely control their fleets themselves, in-house
software is the only way to do it. But with today's leading
specialised fleet management software companies, like Resonance’s
Fleet Solutions, this is simply not the case anymore. They
have the experience and knowledge to create a far superior
solution that can also be adapted to meet every fleet's individual
requirements. Hence companies can still be in full control
but with the added support that professionals can bring.Some
companies use in-house resources to build and maintain their
own fleet company software systems. One of the primary reasons
cited is their desire to 'manage their own destiny'. However,
in an article titled "Doing it on Your Own," in The Standard,
the reality is that outsourcing is usually the most cost-effective
solution.
Outsourcing your solution has
important advantages. Many internal IT professionals maintain
a do-it-yourself approach to all technical projects and may
well be technically capable of the development. However, they
will lack the focus of on outside organisation and once the
project is implemented, it will often stagnate as the developer
is redeployed elsewhere. Support of this system is then a
further consideration, especially if the development is the
work of a single person (what about holiday cover, sickness
or if they leave the company?).
Resonance’s Fleet Solutions
have years of experience of providing tried and tested solutions
to the fleet industry. The result has meant that the systems
are designed by the industry, for the industry. Development
of all the software is continual and support for all products
are second to none. Together with the flexibility and user
definable features means that the user gets the best of both
worlds!
