PALO ALTO, Calif. -- The Frost & Sullivan Mobility Awards Committee recognizes TeleNav Inc's TeleNav Track[TM] with the 2008 Mobility Award for Best Mobile Resource Management (MRM) on a Handheld Device.
TeleNav Track combines the latest advances in GPS, wireless and Web technologies to make mobile workforce and asset management an affordable reality for businesses of all sizes. In review and analysis of all similar industry offerings, Frost & Sullivan found TeleNav Track to be the leader due to flexibility in offerings, range of services, ease of use and customer support. TeleNav Track has driven impressive returns on investment for thousands of organizations across the country.
The productivity, customer service, and cost benefits of MRM solutions are becoming increasingly clear - and forward-looking businesses are turning to MRM solutions to establish a competitive advantage in their respective industries.
