If you are reviewing your Netstar contract, compare it with Matrix before you renew. Matrix Beame gives insurer-approved recovery from R99 a month with no wiring, and the new Matrix Vision dashcam adds road-facing and in-cab AI cameras, collision and distraction alerts and live streaming from R359 a month. Both come from MiX by Powerfleet, one of South Africa’s longest-running vehicle telematics companies.
