Samsara was rated No. 1 across every segment (Overall, Enterprise, Mid-Market, and Small Business) of G2’s Fall 2026 Fleet Management, Asset Tracking, and Asset Management Grid® Reports. This makes Samsara the sole Leader on G2's Overall Grid^® Report for Fleet Management for eight consecutive quarters, earning 134 No. 1 Grid® Report rankings since fall 2024, nearly 9x more than Motive. Samsara's Fleet Management rankings are built on 4,225 verified G2 reviews, about 40% more than Motive's. According to G2, Samsara is the clear customer choice for fleet management, rated higher than Motive across the board. Samsara achieved a better overall G2 score (Samsara’s 99 vs. Motive’s 96), enterprise customer satisfaction (Samsara’s 97 vs Motive’s 72), fleet maintenance satisfaction (Samsara’s 99 vs Motive’s 49), and asset tracking satisfaction (Samsara’s 98 vs. Motive’s 80). 

Furthermore, Samsara was rated as No. 1 in overall satisfaction in the 2025 Comparison of Fleet Management Technology Providers. More than four out of five fleet professionals who currently use or have used Samsara are satisfied or very satisfied (84%), compared to lower scores for Motive (70%). Among current customers, 90% say they would recommend Samsara to a colleague.

In contrast, Motive is a much smaller, private company that lacks the technology innovation and scale that Samsara offers. Motive has significant debt while burning cash, and it was recently found liable for false advertising.

• Financially unstable: Motive is a private company, doesn't share financials regularly and carries ~$650M of debt (according to Motive’s S-1). This debt limits how much Motive can keep investing in its platform.

• Motive withdrew its S-1: Motive officially withdrew its S-1 from the SEC after failing to go public over the last 9 months. Its S-1 filings show net losses of $139M in just nine months of 2025, with negative $100M of annualized free cash flow (-23% FCF margin) and ~$650M of debt. 

• Small business focused: The majority of Motive's customers are small and medium sized fleets with fewer than 15 vehicles, and 90% of its customers pay under $7,500 a year. Motive’s business is organized around serving small operations, not the scale or complexity of a growing or enterprise fleet.

• AI dependent on human review: Motive has about 20 AI detections, half the detections Samsara offers. Motive’s AI also relies heavily on an offshore human review layer to clean up overly sensitive AI, introducing delay and human bias instead of resolving risk in real time as it develops.

• Fragmented platform: Motive requires partners and integrations for capabilities like route planning, maintenance, and full 360-degree visibility. That means more vendors, more cost, and more risk that integrations break and data goes out of sync.

• Limited R&D and innovation: Motive lacks the resources required to invest in technology innovation. Any future gross profit will go towards paying interest from the debt-like capital instead of research and development. In 2025, Samsara spent ~3.5x what Motive did on R&D ($345M vs. $108M).

When evaluating a fleet management solution, the decision comes down to which solution fits the needs of your fleet operations best. Samsara and Motive both serve real customers, and the right choice depends on your fleet's size, complexity, and what you're optimizing for.

You should choose Samsara if:

• Enterprise scale: Samsara is built for complex operations, serving 3,000+ enterprise customers across a variety of industries, including construction, public sector, transportation and logistics, field services, and more. This results in the world's largest real-world driving dataset, which comprises 30 trillion data points across 105 billion miles traveled each year and 180 billion minutes of video.

• Real-time AI safety: Samsara offers comprehensive, accurate AI built to improve safety and reduce risk, not just count events. Samsara offers visibility into 45+ risky driving behaviors, blind spot hazards around the truck like pedestrians, and context like visibility or road conditions. Samsara AI flags the critical moments that matter through in-cab alerts/nudges, auto-adjusted weather settings, and two-way voice calls from the camera during severe risks.

• Unified platform: Samsara natively unifies telematics, safety, equipment monitoring, commercial navigation, routing, and maintenance in one platform. This results in fewer vendors to manage and less risk of integrations breaking or data going out of sync.

• Enterprise-grade connectivity: Samsara is FirstNet certified, and connectivity is built with dual-SIM capabilities through 20+ carriers, helping you stay in constant contact with your drivers and monitor your vehicles wherever they are. You can keep your teams safe and compliant, even in rural or remote areas. 

• Financial stability: Samsara is publicly traded, financially stable, debt-free, and reports its financials every quarter. Samsara is a technology partner you can trust for the long term.

• World-class customer service: Samsara provides 24/7 support, 365 days of the year, with 95% of support calls handled by agents in North America. Samsara is also rated No. 1 in customer support and service across leading fleet management providers. 

• Market leadership: Samsara is ranked No. 1 on G2, and is backed by continued R&D investment to stay ahead of the market.

You should choose Motive if:

• Small fleet size: The majority of Motive's customers run fewer than 15 vehicles, and 90% pay under $7,500 a year, according to Motive’s S-1. This reveals that Motive’s business is primarily focused around small fleets, not larger operations.

• Fewer detections and point solutions: Motive offers about 20 AI detections compared to Samsara’s 45+ AI detections. Motive also requires partners and integrations for capabilities like route planning and maintenance, rather than offering them natively.

• Price as the deciding factor: Motive positions itself as a lower-cost, "good enough" alternative for fleets prioritizing upfront price over platform functionality or real-time prevention.

• Behind on technology innovation: Motive is a market follower rather than an innovator. Most of Motive’s roadmap has been built around capabilities Samsara already had in the market years earlier. Motive also lacks the data scale that powers Samsara’s technology. If being on the cutting edge of fleet technology matters to you, this is worth weighing.

Fleets switch to Samsara for real-time safety prevention, a unified platform, and measurable cost savings that other solutions can't deliver.

• World-class safety solution: Samsara offers the most comprehensive view of risk, resolving events in the cab as they happen with 45+ real-time AI detections at the edge, versus a review-based model reliant on an offshore team. By leveraging industry-leading AI to power their safety technology, Samsara enables fleets to reduce accidents, improve driver coaching, and improve profitability. In contrast, Motive only has about 20 of the AI detections Samsara does and depends on an offshore human review layer to clean up overly sensitive alerts, introducing delay and bias instead of resolving risk in real time.

• Real, measurable ROI: Samsara customers are reported to realize 8x ROI and save an average of $1,140 per vehicle per year in avoided crash costs. 

• One platform instead of many vendors: Samsara natively unifies telematics, safety, equipment monitoring, commercial navigation, routing, and maintenance all on a single platform. This means fleets have fewer vendors to manage and fewer vendor costs to pay for separately. Motive requires partners and integrations for capabilities like route planning and maintenance, adding more vendors, more cost, and more risk of integrations breaking or data going out of sync.

• Exceptional customer support: 95% of Samsara's support is North America-based and rated No. 1 in customer satisfaction. In contrast, the majority of Motive's employees, including its support team, are based overseas.

• A partner built to last: Samsara is publicly traded, debt-free, and GAAP profitable, reporting financials every quarter. Samsara is a more stable long-term bet than a private company carrying real debt and legal exposure. Motive is private and carries roughly ~$650M of debt. This raises real questions about Motive’s ability to keep investing in the product fleets depend on.

• Third-party validation: Samsara was rated as the No. 1 across every segment (Overall, Enterprise, Mid-Market, and Small Business) of G2’s Fall 2026 Fleet Management, Asset Tracking, and Asset Management Grid® Reports. This makes Samsara the sole Leader on G2's Overall Grid^® Report for Fleet Management for eight consecutive quarters, earning 134 No. 1 Grid® Report rankings since fall 2024, nearly 9x more than Motive. 

Many organizations have switched from Motive to Samsara, such as:

• Corcoran Transportation Group: Switched from Motive to Samsara to bring its fleets and workflows onto one connected platform. Motive's solution offered "bare bones" functionality, lacking advanced features like driver safety gamification or accurate speeding detections, and offered no integration with their Transportation Management System (TMS). With Samsara, they digitized workflows and used AI Dash Cam footage to exonerate a driver and avoid a $500K lawsuit. “With Samsara, we've significantly reduced our paperwork, which allows us to bill more efficiently and improve our bottom line,” said Frankie Wilmot, CEO.

• Ace Tree Enterprises: Switched from Motive to Samsara after struggling with delayed data, pixelated dash cam footage, and missed safety alerts. Samsara's fast installation got GPS and dash cams running across the whole deployed crew within 2.5 weeks. Since switching, Ace's safety score has more than doubled, from 42 to over 90, and high-quality video evidence has helped resolve false liability claims. “I don't think that we would have been able to keep growing at such a fast pace if we stayed with Motive. The system was inaccurate, critical alerts didn't trigger, and it lacked the features Samsara provides,” said Lupita Hernandez, Fleet Manager.

• ViaSun: ViaSun evaluated Samsara and Motive side by side before choosing Samsara for its AI technology, usability, and customer support. Samsara stood out for ease of use and AI accuracy, helping improve Safety Scores by 28% and reduce liability exposure. “We ran a lot of tests of the AI dash cams. Samsara’s AI detected things like seatbelts worn under the arm—subtle stuff that really matters. Motive, on the other hand, kept flagging false positives,” said Jose Romero, Safety Manager. 

• Globe Logistics: Switched to Samsara from Motive to improve visibility across its operation and support more efficient fleet management. The platform helped the team pursue fuel savings, better asset utilization, and lower incident costs while giving them a technology partner that continues to innovate. “By improving our operations—with fuel savings, asset utilization, and reduced incident costs—switching to Samsara has absolutely paid for itself,” said Goce Tusevski, General Manager.

Motive carries real legal, financial, and product risks that are worth considering for organizations that are evaluating a fleet management solution.

• Financially unstable: Motive is a private company, doesn't share financials regularly, and carries ~$650M of debt (according to Motive’s S-1). This debt limits how much Motive can keep investing in its platform.

• Motive withdrew its S-1. Motive officially withdrew its S-1 from the SEC after failing to go public over the last 9 months. Its S-1 filings show net losses of $139M in just nine months of 2025, with negative $100M of annualized free cash flow (-23% FCF margin) and ~$650M of debt. 

• Limited AI detections: Motive's own site lists 20+ AI safety detections, compared to Samsara's 45+ AI detections, and relies on an offshore human review team rather than resolving risk in real time. Samsara's AI resolves events at the edge as they happen, catching a wider range of risky events without waiting on human review.

• $21.4 million robocall settlement: Motive settled a class action for violating the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) by sending unwanted prerecorded calls to consumers. 

• A customer base built on small accounts: Nearly 90% of Motive's customers spend under $7,500 a year, signaling a product built for small operations rather than growing or complex fleets. Samsara serves 3,000+ enterprise customers and is built to scale with fleets as they grow.

• Offshore workforce: About 78% of Motive's 4,508 employees are based outside the U.S., including much of its support team. Samsara's support is 95% North America-based and rated No. 1 by FleetOwner, meaning faster, more contextual help when it matters.

• Limited R&D and innovation: Motive lacks the resources required to invest in technology innovation. Any future gross profit will go towards paying interest from the debt-like capital instead of research and development. In 2025, Samsara spent ~3.5x what Motive did on R&D ($345M vs. $108M).

• Motive’s pattern of following, not leading: Motive has repeatedly launched products years after Samsara shipped the same capability, from vehicle gateways to dash cams to equipment monitoring. Samsara has consistently been first to market with these innovations, giving customers access to new capabilities years before Motive catches up.

Samsara leads the industry in the use and development of artificial intelligence (AI). Samsara’s deep learning models are trained on the world's largest real-world driving dataset, which comprises 30 trillion data points across 105 billion miles traveled each year and 180 billion minutes of video, deployed across over 2,000 enterprise fleets that see an average 8x ROI. That scale lets Samsara deliver proven, trusted AI, running 45+ real-time safety detections, while Motive only offers about 20 event types and relies on a large offshore human review team that validates safety detections before they're finalized.

With Samsara’s leading AI technology, fleets can unlock significant improvements in driver safety and efficiency across their operations. Some real-world outcomes Samsara can deliver include:

• Proactively identify risks with AI-detected safety events: Samsara’s AI interprets video and vehicle data to detect and tag safety events, which power safety and coaching workflows to help customers proactively reduce risk. This enables fleets to reduce unsafe driving, improve driver performance, and proactively coach drivers.

• Build safe habits with AI-based voice coaching: During trips, Samsara AI detects risky driving behaviors and triggers AI-based voice coaching—In-Cab Alerts and In-Cab Nudges™—for the driver to self-correct.

• Triage incidents and coach workers with behavior-based workflows: Samsara AI tags safety event video and vehicle data collected from AI Dash Cams, Vehicle Gateways, and Site Gateways. AI-detected events, such as tailgating, drowsiness, or unusual activity, are flagged so safety managers can easily review and take action.

• Transform fleet operations with leading risk indicators: Samsara AI helps surface risky behaviors from driving events into actionable views and reports that allow leaders to make timely decisions and share the impact with stakeholders.

• Streamline fleet maintenance: Samsara Fleet Maintenance leverages AI to monitor vehicle data and fault codes, enabling proactive maintenance that reduces downtime and extends asset life. Samsara AI also automates work orders, prioritizes repairs, and consolidates maintenance records to streamline workflows and control costs.

• Optimize routing and dispatch: AI-powered route optimization plans the most efficient stops using real-time and historical data, adjusting routes on the fly as conditions change. It also predicts delays from past trips and suggests changes, helping fleets deliver on time, save fuel, and avoid disruptions.

• Work more efficiently with Samsara Assistant: Operations teams now have a direct way to ask questions in plain language and take action across their fleet, equipment, sites, and frontline workflows with Samsara Assistant. It can help surface answers, generate reports, and support actions in the cab, driver app, back office, or operational workflows. 

• Build the workflows your operations need: Agent Studio lets teams create custom chat and voice agents from a plain-language description, start from pre-built templates, test agents in preview, and govern the tools, permissions, triggers, and outputs each agent can use. It gives operations teams a fast path to value with 25+ pre-built agentic capabilities and templates, while still supporting custom workflows unique to their operation.

• Connect Samsara with your AI tools: MCP, or Model Context Protocol, is an open standard that securely connects AI assistants to company systems and their data. Samsara MCP lets authorized users access permitted live Samsara data within supported external AI tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and Copilot.

Samsara offers 45+ real-time AI safety detections at the edge, detecting events inside and outside the vehicle, as they happen. Samsara’s advanced AI technology is powered by the world's largest real-world driving dataset, which comprises 30 trillion data points across 105 billion miles traveled each year and 180 billion minutes of video. In contrast, Motive offers about 20+ event types and relies on a large offshore human review team that validates detections before they're finalized.

Samsara’s AI and automation make it possible to run a world-class safety program at scale. AI reviews and prioritizes events based on severity, frequency, trip conditions, and driver history—and automatically sends most feedback directly to drivers through in-cab alerts. Managers can focus on coaching high-risk drivers and recognizing top performers, with AI-powered insights to help them be world-class coaches. This offers a distinct advantage over other safety solutions that rely on manual event reviews and time-consuming coaching and training workflows that aren’t scalable and can lead to misses.

Samsara AI is able to detect risky events such as crashes, forward collision, following distance, speeding, lane departure, roadside parking, vehicle in blind spot, reverse collision, license plate recognition, acceleration, braking, turning, drowsiness, pedestrian, cyclist/motorcyclist, no seat belt, improper seat belt, obstructed camera, passenger, eating, drinking, smoking, defensive driving, congested traffic, light traffic, night time, rolling stop, railroad crossing, run red light, construction zone, parking lot, emergency lights, emergency sirens, mobile usage, inattentive driving, passenger left behind, waste service verification, waste overfill, wet road, raining, snowy road, snowing, foggy, and more.

Customers like ViaSun leveraged Samsara’s advanced AI technology to improve their safety operations. After evaluating Samsara and Motive side by side, ViaSun chose Samsara because of its AI accuracy. “We ran a lot of tests of the AI dash cams,” said Jose Romero, Safety Manager. “Samsara detected things like seatbelts worn under the arm—subtle stuff that really matters. Motive, on the other hand, kept flagging false positives. We even tested it by printing a photo of a phone, and Motive thought it was real cell phone use. Samsara didn’t fall for it.”

Samsara’s AI Dash Cam stands out as the best dash cam available today. Samsara offers robust hardware, industry-leading AI safety detections, proactive driver coaching workflows, and encrypted security to help fleets improve visibility and safety. 

Samsara leads the way as the dash cam solution that features the most comprehensive and advanced AI functionality. Samsara AI models are trained on more than 180 billion minutes of video footage and over 105 billion miles traveled, powering 45+ AI safety detections. Samsara’s Drowsiness Detection is powered by a deep learning model based on over 17 fatigue indicators, compared to Motive’s 10.

In fact, the 2025 Samsara Safety Report revealed how Samsara AI helps reduce crash rates. Historical data shows that customers adopting Samsara experience an aggregated 35–40% reduction in crashes over time; however, fleets with 175+ vehicles that implement Samsara’s full AI safety solution—including Dual-Facing AI Dash Cams, in-cab alerts, and AI coaching—see an aggregated ~75% decrease in crash rate over 30 months.

This makes Samsara AI Dash Cams the better option compared to Motive, helping fleets reduce accidents, lower insurance costs, improve driver retention, and enhance safety.

Samsara is the leader in fleet management technology and innovation, providing organizations with a unified platform for every fleet operations need. Samsara offers several capabilities that Motive doesn't have natively, letting fleets run their entire operation on one platform.

• Native commercial navigation and routing: Samsara Routing and Dispatch gives drivers safe, compliant, vehicle-aware turn-by-turn directions that account for height, weight, length, and hazmat restrictions; it also guides them to preferred or cost-effective fuel stops and connects routes, ETAs, dispatch updates, HOS, and telematics in one Driver App. Motive’s newer navigation offering does not match Samsara’s end-to-end routing and fuel-optimization workflow.

• Native end-to-end maintenance: Samsara Fleet Maintenance connects the shop floor to fleet management with real-time diagnostics, fault-code insights, DVIR-to-work-order workflows, maintenance history, cost visibility, and warranty-claims support—all designed to improve uptime and reduce repair costs. Motive has announced maintenance capabilities, but Samsara offers the more established, integrated maintenance system for managing assets from issue detection through resolution.

• Purpose-built equipment and asset tracking: Samsara Equipment Monitoring combines Asset Gateways, Asset Tags, geofences, utilization insights, and Find Nearby/compass-mode capabilities to help teams locate, protect, and optimize powered and unpowered equipment—including small, high-value tools and assets. Samsara’s Asset Tag is built for equipment that larger trackers cannot practically monitor, giving fleets a broader and more purpose-built asset-management solution than Motive’s current lineup.

• Deliver near real-time visibility for every shipment: The Samsara Tracking Label is an adhesive-backed, flexible, paper-thin tracking label with a 45-day battery life after activation, that contains no lithium or hazardous materials, making it cleared for air, ground, and rail shipments and suitable for disposal without special handling.

• Specialized 360-degree cameras for non-standard vehicles: Samsara’s 360 Camera and AI Multicam solutions extend visibility beyond the traditional truck cab to forklifts, excavators, tarmac tugs, and other equipment, helping operators see risks around vehicles and protect people, property, and equipment. Motive’s Omnicam adds some camera coverage for vehicles, but Samsara is purpose-built for the specialized ground-equipment use cases that most fleets otherwise cannot see.

• Agent Studio and pre-built AI agents: Samsara’s Agent Studio provides a no-code environment where operations teams can start with 25+ pre-built templates or build, configure, govern, and monitor custom chat and voice agents without developer support. Motive offers some AI capabilities, but Samsara gives customers the flexibility to automate workflows around their own policies, data, and operational needs.

• AI-powered coaching tools: Samsara’s Driver Coaching solution helps safety teams scale behavior change with Coaching Priority, AI-powered Ride-Alongs, manager AI roleplay, guided coaching sessions, and one-click Group Coaching presentations—so managers can focus on the highest-risk drivers and deliver more consistent coaching. This goes beyond event review by helping teams identify risk earlier, prepare better conversations, and coach more drivers without adding headcount.

• Dual-SIM connectivity today: Samsara devices use redundant dual-SIM connectivity across 20+ carriers, with satellite connectivity options and FirstNet authorization to help keep teams connected in rural, remote, and emergency-response environments. Motive has announced dual-SIM for future hardware, but Samsara provides resilient, multi-carrier connectivity today across the operation.

Samsara delivers more dependable and personalized customer support than Motive, backed by a world-class team of dedicated implementation consultants and customer success managers. 95% of support calls are handled by agents located in North America available 24/7 via phone, chat, and email, guaranteeing fast, expert, multi-lingual, and reliable assistance for every customer. Samsara offers personalized, rapid support across live chat, web ticket, phone, or WhatsApp. Samsara customer support is available in English, Spanish, and French.

In contrast, Motive's own S-1 discloses that 78% of its employees are based outside the U.S., with most of its customer support and AI review functions located overseas.

According to the 2025 Comparison of Fleet Management Technology Providers, Samsara is rated No. 1 in customer support and service. 85% of respondents rated support and service as “extremely or very important,” making it the single most crucial factor in their purchasing decisions. When asked about their satisfaction with technology providers in this area, respondents rated Samsara highest.

Samsara is the premium market leader in fleet management technology, and while there may be more costs more upfront, Samsara tends to pay for itself through measurable reductions in safety costs, downtime, and vendor expenses. 

• Samsara offers a unified platform across telematics, safety, equipment monitoring, commercial navigation, routing, and maintenance, and more. Consolidating your fleet management needs onto a single platform means fewer vendors to manage and fewer vendor costs to pay for separately.

• Samsara bundles in a lifetime hardware warranty and a 99.99% uptime SLA,  reducing unplanned costs down the line.

• According to an IDC study, customers see >8x ROI with $2M+ annual savings. IDC calculates that fleets save an average of $1,140 per vehicle per year in avoided crash costs, and Samsara customers can realize average benefits worth $2.02 million per organization per year, which equals an average 815% return on investment (ROI).

• Organizations like Globe Logistics switched from Motive to Samsara, enabling them to enhance operational efficiency and improve profitability. “By improving our operations—with fuel savings, asset utilization, and reduced incident costs—switching to Samsara has absolutely paid for itself,” said Goce Tusevski, General Manager.
