MyGeotab Release 2102
That’s right, it is time to preview MyGeotab Release 2102!
MyGeotab Release 2102 is packed so full of useful updates and design changes, we are preparing to make new training videos to keep up. Users that have turned on feature preview will be somewhat familiar with some of what is coming. To those who have not this post may feel a little like Christmas morning.
New MyGeotab Design
The design team has been working overtime to simplify the user experience to maximize functionality while encouraging exploration. With MyGeotab Release 2101 the new look will be applied by default. One of my favorites has been the redesigned Vehicle & Assets list. Choose your columns, place them in the order that works best for you, and hide what you do not need to see.
Updated MyGeotab Reports
Not only have the current 60+ existing reports been updated with more contemporary versions, but 17 brand new reports have been added as well. Check out the old design vs new.

Clustered Mapping
Another feature coming out of Feature Preview is the Clustered Map. For large fleets, this is extremely useful.
Analytics Lab Now Installed by Default
We are just wrapping up a series of posts on the Analytics Lab and have shared several of the current experiments available to you. In MyGeotab release 2102, the Analytics Lab will be installed by default for users with the appropriate access credentials.
Dashboard Wizard is Brand New in Feature Preview
New customers will love this tool for setting up their system based on the pillar they want to focus on. Using a 3 step process, choose your pillar, select your reports, and choose the audience for those reports. The wizard will apply the appropriate rules. Current users looking to change their area of focus can apply the wizard as well. Once set up you can still change the parameters on specific rules or add custom reports to address other issues.
Live Map Advanced View
Also new in feature preview is an advanced view for viewing asset details like temperature, and fuel level on the map.
Terminology changes in MyGeotab Release 2102
To better reflect that not all fleets using the Geotab platform are primarily cars and trucks, and to prepare for connecting to more types of assets as technology marches on, some changes to terminology are coming in this release. In the main menu, and elsewhere throughout the application, Vehicles will now be Vehicles & Assets. In compliance-related features such as HOS reports, the term vehicle will continue to be used. Also, DVIR has been renamed Asset Inspection.
Device Replacement Messages
Two new tools have been added to the Vehicles & Assets list. One will alert you when a device upgrade is needed due to the coming 3G network sunset, and the other can be used to notify us when you are ready to order them.
And if that is not enough
Big Changes to Engine Data and Maintenance in MyGeotab Release 2102
Currency support has been added to Maintenance Reminders, and you can even select a regional currency on the options page. If you frequently cross borders, the application also supports multi-currency conversions. This currency support has been carried through to include the cost in maintenance reporting.
Also new in Maintenance, Next Week and Next Month have been added to the date picker options, and bulk import of maintenance records from .csv and .xlsx file formats are supported. Even more, you will now also be able to select regional units of measure in Engine Measurements, and future release plans for regional units of measure across the application.
Engine Faults Has A New Look & Feel
With more filter options to choose from and a clean new look, the engine faults report will make more sense to more people – not just the mechanic.
- Compact table layout.
- Ability to view/hide columns.
- Filter options for source (vehicle or telematics) and/or protocol.
- Total number of times a fault was logged.
- View options for Fault Code, Description, Current Status and more.
There is truly much more, but this ought to be enough to whet your appetite for what is coming in MyGeotab Release 2102.
