Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about LubesFox and remote tank monitoring.

FoxInsights’s telemetry systems have the power to revolutionise the bulk-tank supply chain for our customers. Workshop managers can effectively outsource oil stock management, and ensure they commit to spending on new stocks only when they really need to.

The only time spent on managing bulk tank oil stock will be reading delivery confirmation emails.

Castrol

FoxInsights has truly impressed us, and this experience reaffirms why we chose their solutions. Whilst other platforms we considered primarily focused on the basics, such as tracking how many litres are in the tank, it was clear from the start that FoxInsights takes a far more advanced approach.

They demonstrated a forward-thinking vision, providing not just data but insights and tools that help us plan for the future and make smarter decisions. This innovative perspective is exactly what we were looking for in a partner.
