GPStracks Benefits from Paragon Innovations’ Approach of Collaboration, Innovation and Efficiency to Develop Cellular and GPS Tracking Dog Collar
GPSTracks wanted a partner with a broad range of skills to design and develop their GlobalPetFinder: a small, durable, technically sophisticated wireless product that would quickly hit a wide-open market and still be a snap to use.
Overview
GPSTracks wanted a superior product, delivered now. They needed the right partner to develop their idea for the GlobalPetFinder, a product that combined satellite and digital cellular technology to track pets, even in wooded areas. It was also essential to provide a monthly service fee revenue model. The selection of technology was critical enough that hiring a team to design, develop, and deliver such a sophisticated product would have cost a fortune and taken years. Paragon delivered within months and at a fraction of the cost.
Paragon’s architecture supported a small, lightweight, rugged design that was safe, easy to use, and affordable. And its manufacturability and reliability delighted GPSTracks as well as its discriminating customers.
