By  , Farms.com      

John Deere is known for bringing innovation to farm fields and construction sites around the world with their high-quality, time tested machinery and equipment. Now they have a new smartphone app designed to connect operation managers and fleet handlers with their equipment at all times.

It’s called JDLink™ and it has been developed to work on multiple handheld platforms including iPhone, iPad and Android devices. The concept behind the new smartphone app is machine monitoring and allows for locating machinery as well as equipment alerts.

Some features of the JDLink™ app include:

•    Multiple machine mapping
•    Directions to machines
•    Ping and share locations of machines
•    View and acknowledge alerts

The JDLink™ app is free and consumers can explore the demo function prior to subscribing for an account. "We know our customers are constantly on the go and have limited time to track entire fleets, even when they can manage from their seats via the JDLink website," said Liz Quinn product marketing manager, John Deere WorkSight.

While the app is still new to the marketplace, it seems like a sure winner for farmers and contractors alike.
