How many drivers and vehicles can I use with this service?

TIS-Web is suitable for fleets of all sizes, if working with very large sets of drivers or vehicles you may find it advantageous to have an account per depot or to split a single account into driver and vehicle groups.

Many TIS-Web accounts include hundreds of vehicles and drivers but the service is just as suitable for owner drivers and smaller fleets.

How do I get upgrades to TIS-Web?

TIS-Web is Internet based and all upgrades are supplied and loaded onto your PC automatically. The cost of TIS-Web upgrades is included in your storage unit pricing so there is no further charge. The upgrades are loaded onto the VDO servers and downloaded to your PC the next time you login. Your existing data will be preserved and will still be available in the new version.

Automatic upgrading has several advantages:

• Less IT support required
• Multiple work stations guaranteed to be at same version
• No requirement for installation or upgrade CD’s
• Upgrades are loaded as soon as they are available
• Lower cost
• No annual licence fee

VDO will give advance notice of any upgrades so that you can plan the loading of the new software on your PC with your IT department.
