If you\u2019re ready to purchase an electronic logging device<\/a>, you probably have a lot of questions related to ELD Mandate compliance. Choosing the best device is a decision that will impact your fleet and drivers for many years, so it\u2019s important to ask questions about compliance and find out what else the device and ELD provider can do for you. To help you ask the right questions, we\u2019ve prepared a checklist of topics you should investigate when purchasing an ELD.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

DOES THE PRODUCT MEET THE FMSCA REQUIREMENTS?<\/h4>\n

Contact the provider find out if the solution is AOBRD or ELD compliant to make sure you are safe before the deadline.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

IS THE PROVIDER CREDIBLE?<\/h4>\n

Does the provider have a track record of meeting compliance standards for their devices and software? Many will say they have a compliant solution\u2014but there is no verification process
\nby the FMCSA<\/a>. This is why trust and credibility play major roles when choosing an ELD provider.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

HOW IS THE ELD PROVIDER GOING TO SUPPORT YOU?<\/h4>\n

Anyone who\u2019s ever called a helpline knows the value of good customer service. You will count on your provider to help with setup and installation, supply training materials, and answer
\nany questions you may have. Make sure your provider will be there when you need them most.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

IS THE PRODUCT DEPENDABLE AND EASY TO USE?<\/h4>\n

This may sound simple, but it\u2019s actually very important. You are going to use \u2014and rely on\u2014this product a lot. It\u2019s important that it be user-friendly and dependable, so you don\u2019t have to
\nworry.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?<\/h4>\n

The cost of the device, installation, and recurring costs are all important things to consider. Products with higher upfront costs might actually be cheaper in the long run, and vice versa.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

WHAT ELSE CAN THE ELD DO?<\/h4>\n

Most operators just want a product that\u2019s ELD compliant. But not all ELDs will be one-size-fits-all, and can actually offer benefits beyond hours of service. Tired of stopping at weigh stations, getting stuck in traffic, and dealing with burdensome IFTA paperwork? Leading ELD provider solutions can solve all of these problems, and more.<\/p>\n
