GPS Asset Tracking Software for Tools and Equipment

Timly combines smart GPS trackers with modern IoT radio technology: trackers on vehicles, machines, or tools determine their position via GPS/GNSS and send this data at regular intervals to the Timly platform.

The required hardware and connectivity are provided together with a specialised technology partner who supplies robust industrial trackers and suitable network connections. Depending on the device, data is transmitted via power‑saving networks such as LoRaWAN or mobile networks, so that both stationary and mobile assets in the field can be reached reliably.

With Timly's construction equipment GPS tracking, incoming location and sensor data are automatically linked to the stored items, visualised on maps, and saved in the history. This way, you can configure update rates as needed—from near real time to just a few messages per day—striking the right balance between detail, battery life, and data usage.

Our GPS asset tracking software works with a wide range of GPS trackers and IoT sensors that we integrate via our partner adnexo into the software for GPS tracker. This includes GPS tracker for equipment and fleets, rugged GPS devices for construction machinery and equipment, compact tags for tools, and battery‑powered solutions for containers, trailers, or other mobile assets—all managed centrally in the Timly GPS tracking software.

This creates end‑to‑end asset tracking with GPS across different asset types, also as mobile asset tracking software, without the need to maintain multiple isolated systems.

In most cases, you do not need to manage individual SIM cards or data contracts yourself: the GPS tracker hardware used by Timly's mobile asset tracking software already includes the necessary connectivity, which is provided via an IoT partner and billed as an ongoing service fee. This bundles data transmission, operation of the GPS tracking app, and support into one package, giving you predictable monthly costs per active GPS tracker or sensor instead of separate contracts with mobile providers.

The exact recurring costs depend on the tracker type, connectivity (e.g., LoRaWAN or mobile network), and the desired update frequency—typically low double‑digit amounts per device and month, which are transparently listed in the offer and in the Timly pricing packages.

Yes, there is a mobile GPS tracking app from Timly that lets you monitor your inventory directly on a smartphone or tablet. Through the app, you access the same data as in the web interface and use Timly as central GPS asset tracking software—including live map, location history, and notifications.

On the go, you can view GPS positions, open assets by scanning, update statuses, and receive alerts when, for example, a tracker leaves a zone or an event such as a low fuel or battery level occurs. This turns Timly into a mobile asset tracking software that shows you at all times where your machines, vehicles, and tools are located—on construction sites, in the warehouse, or at the customer’s site.

Timly integrates very well with existing systems, as you can access all relevant asset and tracking data via an extensive REST API and standardised interfaces. This enables you to synchronise GPS and inventory data automatically with your ERP, maintenance, or dispatching system without maintaining master data twice.

Together with your IT team, you decide which systems are connected and how deep the integration should be—from simple CSV imports all the way to bidirectional real‑time integrations, for example with SAP or other ERP platforms.

Your GPS and personal data are protected in Timly according to current security and data protection standards. The software runs in European data centres operated by OVHcloud, whose servers are certified according to ISO27001 and also meet ISO27017 and ISO27018 for cloud security and data protection.

Combined with encrypted data transmission (TLS), role‑based access rights, and a data processing agreement under Art. 28 GDPR, the system is GDPR‑compliant and offers a high level of protection for your data; all server locations are within the EU.
