SimpliFleet.hu's answer

SimpliFleet deliberately leaves out the thing most fleet products lead with: live GPS tracking. It handles the administrative half of running a fleet — vehicle and driver records, renewal deadlines, maintenance, documents, costs and the paperwork that closes a job — and it does that without requiring any hardware in the vehicles.

That makes it usable from the first day, with no installation, no devices and no driver pushback about being tracked. If you also need live positioning, a telematics system can run alongside it; SimpliFleet does not try to be one.

SimpliFleet.hu's answer

Most fleet software is priced and designed around telematics: hardware per vehicle, a live map, and administration bolted on. If what actually hurts is a missed technical inspection, an expired insurance policy, vehicle costs nobody can total up, or completion certificates typed by hand, you end up paying for tracking to get the paperwork.

SimpliFleet inverts that. Deadlines, documents, costs, driver assignments and certificates are the product. It is available in Hungarian and English, follows Hungarian administrative practice, and has a 60-day free trial without a card.

We are also straightforward about the fit: under roughly five vehicles a spreadsheet may still be enough, and if you genuinely need live positioning, you need telematics, not us.

SimpliFleet.hu's answer

Hungarian companies running their own vehicles, typically from about five vehicles upward, that currently keep everything in spreadsheets: transport and logistics firms, field-service and installation companies, construction and trade businesses, and passenger-transport operators.

The everyday users are fleet administrators, office managers and project managers — the people who get the phone call when an inspection is due. Drivers use a separate, limited view showing only their own assignments and the documents attached to them.

SimpliFleet.hu's answer

A web application — nothing to install, no native mobile app. It runs in the browser on desktop and mobile alike, including the driver view.

SimpliFleet.hu's answer

SimpliFleet is built by DVP Systems Kft., a Hungarian software company making practical web tools for small and mid-sized businesses.

It started with a Hungarian premium chauffeur service that wanted one system instead of several spreadsheets: assign drivers to jobs, see the full cost of each assignment, work out what each driver is owed, and hand payroll clean, approved figures instead of a month-end reconstruction.

Two requirements from that project shaped the product:

Drivers needed access of their own — not to be tracked, but to see the job assigned to them and open the documents that go with it.

The project manager needed to see which cars were out and where each was due. That is a scheduling question, not a positioning question, so it is answered by assigned destinations and addresses on a map — with a Google Maps integration to make planning the timing easier — rather than by a GPS device.

The GPS-free stance came from that work, not from a missing feature. The same approach had already produced SimpliTime, which does the equivalent job for working time and payroll preparation.
