Continue reading to explore what John Deere Connected Support™ is, its key benefits, and how to integrate it into your farming operation.

What is John Deere Connected Support™?

John Deere Connected Support™ is a groundbreaking service that leverages advanced telematics technology to keep your farm equipment running at peak performance. In essence, it’s a 24/7 virtual assistant for your farming equipment.

Connected Support™  allows for real-time monitoring, diagnostics, and predictive maintenance, ensuring that your equipment is always ready for the next job. This system's core is JDLink™ software, a powerful tool that forms the backbone of the Connected Support™ infrastructure.

How does John Deere Connected Support™ work?

John Deere JDLink™ software connects your machines to the cloud and enables you to track your equipment’s location, performance, and health remotely. This software collects data from your machinery and sends it to a secure cloud server, where it is analyzed to provide valuable insights.

Connected Support™ doesn’t just end at data collection, though. It also offers real-time alerts and notifications, allowing you to react promptly to issues or inefficiencies in your equipment. Furthermore, it enables your equipment dealer to remotely diagnose problems and provide solutions, reducing downtime and improving your operation’s efficiency.

What are the key benefits of John Deere Connected Support™?

How does Connected Support™ enhance uptime?

One of the primary benefits of John Deere Connected Support™ is uptime enhancement. With real-time data on your equipment’s health, you can proactively address potential issues before they become costly breakdowns.

Imagine receiving an alert about a minor engine issue, scheduling maintenance, and fixing the problem before it causes major downtime. Connected Support™ empowers you to maximize the productivity of your machinery by minimizing unplanned interruptions.

How does it improve maintenance and repair efficiency?

Connected Support™ streamlines maintenance and repairs, reducing the time and costs associated with these tasks. With detailed equipment health information available to your dealer, it can diagnose problems more accurately and prepare the necessary parts and tools in advance. This reduces the time your equipment is out of commission, lowers repair costs, and minimizes the inconvenience to your operation.

How does it aid in predictive maintenance?

Predictive maintenance is a game-changer for farmers. Instead of relying on scheduled maintenance, which can be wasteful if done too early or risky if done too late, Connected Support™ leverages data to predict when your equipment needs maintenance. This data-driven approach ensures that maintenance is performed precisely when required, optimizing equipment performance and extending its lifespan.

What types of farm equipment can utilize Connected Support™?

John Deere Connected Support™ is designed to be versatile and can be applied to a wide range of farm equipment. Tractors, combines, planters, and sprayers can benefit from this technology. Whether you have a small family farm or a large-scale agricultural operation, Connected Support™ can be tailored to meet your specific needs.

Is data security a concern with John Deere Connected Support™?

Data security is critical in today’s digital age, and John Deere takes this issue seriously. The company uses advanced encryption and security measures to protect your data. All information transmitted through JDLink™ is securely stored in the cloud, ensuring that your sensitive data remains private and accessible only to authorized personnel.
