REI launches new service to streamline data, asset management

REI released its new ARMOR™ Cloud service to handle customers’ server management responsibilities. Intended for use by small- and large-fleet transportation customers, ARMOR Cloud augments the list of features offered by REI’s ARMOR Software Suite — an all-in-one wireless solution for fleet management.

“REI is especially proud to be able to offer this service to small-fleet companies,” REI President Scott Hays said. “Many have very small IT staffs or no IT personnel at all. And the scalability and management of ARMOR data and assets has the potential to inundate customers. By allowing REI to maintain their fleet management software via ARMOR Cloud, they’ll realize substantial savings in server management and IT asset needs.”

ARMOR Cloud’s remote server management option adds to the robustness of REI’s ARMOR Software Suite. Among the suite’s features: automatic downloading of event-specific video, alert customization, vehicle tracking in real time, driver performance monitoring, and automatic stop-arm violation reporting. The suite is typically integrated with a digital video recorder, high-definition color cameras, and accessories to form a complete surveillance system.
