Expanding device portfolio to protect employees in challenging locations

23 January 2023

The Garmin Montana 700i is a handheld satellite GPS device that can be used in areas with no mobile coverage allowing an employer to track and locate an employee in areas where mobile infrastructure may have collapsed, due to military action or a natural disaster, or in areas where there simply isn’t any mobile network. These isolated locations present a challenge when trying to locate an employee in the event of a crisis.

To support the ongoing demand, Vismo is introducing the Garmin Montana 700i to its product portfolio. The 700i is ideal for employees working in remote locations and often in challenging conditions, where reliable communication is essential, no matter where they are in the world or how long they are out in the field.

Satellite devices programmed with Vismo provide employees peace of mind knowing they can be tracked, contacted, and protected in the event of an emergency by their employer. The 700i works across the 100% global Iridium network, is MIL-STD-810 certified and has more than 18 hours of battery life in GPS mode.

Two-way messaging capabilities using SMS, email messaging and dialling are incorporated, making communication with remote teams quick and easy. The 700i is also compatible with Vismo features such as panic alerts, geo-fencing, location reporting and mass notification.
