From recovering stolen equipment to simplifying asset management, our clients rely on MapTrack to deliver results that matter.

"Our investment in MapTrack paid off in a big way when a couple of pieces of test equipment, valued at over $142,000 AUD, was stolen during a break-in at an employee’s home. Thanks to Maptrack, we were able to give police the exact location of the asset, even guiding them over the phone as they executed the search warrant. This led them directly to the equipment, which was recovered within 48 hours.”
