SOLID PERFORMANCE, ESSENTIAL TO OUR BUSINESS

What differentiates Samsara from other similar products?
The only other product we ever used was a generation or two OLDER than Samsara and frankly is no comparison. I don't know how to compare to other companies since I know very little about them. We did have a conversation with MOTIVE who of course promised to be better than everyone else, but we never got beyond the sale pitch. I am familiar with the Samsara platform and use its features almost daily to our advantage.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Nearly live gps and video footage. I use Samsara and another asset locator product (NOT something Samsara could do for us so it is not a competitor of yours) to step by step, turn by turn guide our drivers to the location they need to go. It really is a wonderful tool.
What do you dislike most about this product?
I don't love all the updates (which I know are part of the industry... grow or die) I am sure we don't use nearly half of the features available in the system, but we are pretty busy with the day to day around here and don't have time to fully explore what Samsara can do... but we are good at what WE NEED IT TO DO>
