TomTom Telematics Officially Renamed Webfleet Solutions

From today, the company previously known as TomTom Telematics is operating under the new name Webfleet Solutions. Webfleet Solutions will continue to provide exactly the same market-leading products and services TomTom Telematics was known for, including WEBFLEET, NEXTFLEET, LINK devices and the range of PRO Driver Terminals.

While no longer a business unit of the TomTom Group, having been acquired by Bridgestone Europe in April 2019, Webfleet Solutions will remain a key business partner of TomTom and continue to utilize its award-winning “Traffic and Maps” in its services.

“20 years ago, we launched our WEBFLEET fleet management solution from our original office in Leipzig, Germany”, said Thomas Schmidt, CEO and Managing Director, Webfleet Solutions. “We were forerunners in using cloud and internet technologies to help fleets and companies with commercially used trucks, vans and cars to boost productivity, increase safety and sustainability, enhance customer satisfaction, and increase the overall efficiency of their fleet operations.”

“Today, we serve more than 50,000 customers with vehicles driving in 100 countries. As Webfleet Solutions, we will go further than just providing telematics solutions. Bridgestone gives us the perfect platform from which to do so, supporting us to create a wider scope of services for more customers across the world. With us, Bridgestone EMEA now manages 1.2 million mobility and fleet management subscriptions.”
