GO Anywhere Plus overview

GO® Anywhere Plus™ is a versatile global asset tracker for powered and non-powered assets, including trailers, containers, and heavy equipment, with optional direct-to-cell satellite connectivity.

GO® Anywhere Plus™ is a versatile and robust global asset tracker designed for a wide range of powered and non-powered assets, including trailers, containers, and heavy equipment. The device provides deep insights into asset utilization by monitoring movement, trip history, and distance traveled (odometer), alongside ignition and engine hours for maintenance scheduling. With unique direct-to-cell technology (available through select partners), it ensures reliable tracking even in areas without cellular coverage.

Getting started

Security

Geotab platform security is designed for end-to-end protection of your data. Key implementations include the following:

  • The GO® Anywhere Plus™ network interfaces use authentication, data-in-transit encryption, data-at-rest encryption (AES-256), and message integrity verification.
  • The GO® Anywhere Plus™ device is individualized. Each device uses a unique ID and non-static security key, making it difficult to fake a device's identity.
  • Over-the-air updates use digitally-signed firmware to verify that updates come from a trusted source.
