John Deere is improving the ability for customers to maximise machine performance and uptime through updates to its JDLink platform.
Customers now no longer need to renew their JDLink connectivity service subscription and can enable their JDLink service on any compatible machine in their organisation at no additional charge.
Additionally, once customers enable JDLink connectivity, they can select to automatically activate all future JDLink compatible models, further streamlining fleet management. With this update to the JDLink service offering, it is easier than ever before for customers to maximise machine productivity and minimise downtime.
“John Deere has offered telematics for well over a decade and the boost in machine monitoring and machine uptime has been an overwhelming benefit to our customers,” said John Deere, Product Marketing Manager, Connected Solutions, James Leibold said.
“With the next phase of our JDLink offering, we are making it easier for customers to manage their fleets. Instead of needing to keep track of renewal dates by each machine, owners and fleet managers can look at monitoring their equipment holistically and can focus on what’s important – keeping their job sites running.”
Available on most new models, John Deere’s JDLink telematics solution delivers valuable fleet insights directly into the hands of the machine owner or fleet manager.
The JDLink service enables customers access to vital data, such as machine location and utilisation, time in idle, fuel level, upcoming maintenance, machine alerts, and more, all from a web or mobile platform. Beyond machine monitoring, the JDLink solution also enables John Deere Connected Support, enabling the dealer to remotely identify critical issues and take action minimising potential downtime or by remotely sending software payloads to ensure the machine is running efficiently.
The updates to the JDLink offering have been made available effective July 14th, 2021.
