This is the second time that FarEye has been listed in this Market Guide. Previously, Gartner has mentioned FarEye in six other reports.
The Market Guide for Vehicle Routing & Scheduling includes detailed write-ups and figures for the 20 vendors surveyed that provides information on the VRS vendors that are perceived as relevant in the market based on revenue, number of clients, and end-user interest.
As the battle to win the last mile intensifies, there is an increasing demand for vehicle routing and scheduling technologies. Whether businesses manage an in-house fleet or rely upon a third party to manage their deliveries, these tools help them optimize operations throughout the supply chain.
