March 18, 2026

5.0

Top notch experience from beginning to end. We have actually upgraded in thr last year and are looking to add more.

Pros

The safety factor of having the cameras is priceless. Drivers feel they are protected from false reporting from thr public . Customer support is flawless and thr value is immeasurable.

Cons

I have zero issues or complaints. Installing is easy and no connection issues. The camera quality is perfect.

### "Great all around tracking"

April 3, 2026

5.0

Good to use, compared to the rest especially. Most of the feautures are very useful. I've never seen any errors or tracking down due to Samsara.

Pros

Real-time tracking and accuracy. There is no buffer when loading the tracking. The whole experience is fluid.

Cons

I didn't like that the satellite imagery and streets weren't like they are on Google maps etc. At the end of the day it doesn't effect the actual usage, just the experience.

### "Samsara Review for Action Resources"

July 14, 2025

5.0

I enjoy using Samsara very much. We recently switched our trailers from Skybitz to Samsara and the Samsara platform is a lot easier to use. The reporting capabilities are great and the real time tracking is really beneficial for our business.

Pros

I really enjoy the reporting capabilities, and the real time tracking of assets. The geofencing is very useful as well.

Cons

One con that i have with Samsara is that it is missing an API integration with our asset software (Dossier). I think if there was a connection between those two software programs, we could be better at managing our preventative maintenance.

4.0

Overall I am happy to be able to work with Samsara and the support team genuinely seems to want to help work with the company and offer support on specific items requested.

Pros

New features available throughout the year, updates to current needs for drivers and ease of app for all to be able to use.

Cons

Being able to run reports that is needed for safety and compliance departments. Dashboard features limited when driver app is customizable.

### "Efficient and Reliable Fleet Management Tool"

May 3, 2026

5.0

Overall, a reliable and effective platform for fleet management. It improves operations and tracking, though performance and flexibility could be better.

Pros

Easy tracking, real-time data, and a clean dashboard. Improves fleet visibility. Also the integration feature.

Cons

Pricing can be high for some users, and the system may lag occasionally. Customization options are somewhat limited.

### "Samsara's customer service is truly the best."

February 24, 2026

5.0

It truly is a wonderful product. Whether navigating the dashboard, downloading videos, being able to search past content, look at live commutes, view the "harsh events", look at the Health Reports,... I could go on. It's terrific, but again it's the customer service that I am truly impressed with.

Pros

What I truly love most about Samsara is the customer service. Every time I call I get all my questions answered by a friendly person on the other side of the line.

Cons

Sometimes the system can get glitchy. For example if I am wanting to zero in on results in a specific timeframe I'm not always able to do so with refreshing the page and/ or retrying a few times.

### "My Review 4-26"

May 8, 2026

4.0

I am slowly figuring things out. Everyday I go into a new section and try to learn something that will benefit the company.

Pros

easy access to trucks and trailers. Running monthly and quarterly reports very easy to get to. I also like the message center

Cons

the driver app and some of its qliche. Trying to sign out and go off duty is a pain. My drivers usually end up having to do post trip twice. Also if select no trailer is will not accept it.

### "Feedback on Samsara"

February 19, 2026

5.0

I like being able to track my employees when a customer calls wondering where they are. It puts the customer at ease when I can pinpoint exactly how close my employees are to the job site.

Pros

It is a good value for the money. I wish the cameras updated more often. I like being able to track my vehicles and get notified when they have harsh turns and stops.

Cons

The cameras not updating more often. I'd like to be able to see my drivers more often. I guess they need to move their trucks more often. I think the cameras should update more often.

### "Samsara is a must have"

May 8, 2026

5.0

Great product and hands down easy to use. The applications makes dispatching easy as well as helping with logistics

Pros

Samsara has been a great asset in managing the drivers/fleet. it is easy to use and customer support is quick to reply with helpful and supportive information.

Cons

I have not come across any issues with Samsara to date. I would be interested in a feature that sends a message when any member of the fleet starts their vehicle.

### "Areas de Oportunidad para Mejorar."

April 21, 2025

5.0

Las actualizaciones que se han implementado han reducido mi tiempo de supervision, haciendo que mi desempeno y tiempo sea mas breve y bastante mas productiva y eficiente en la deteccion de areas para corregir y mejorar.

Pros

Lo que Samsara ha contribuido en mis actividades diarias de supervision y monitoreo en el desempeno del servicio de manejo de nuestros operadores es la rapidez con la que puedo filtrar lo que necesito de informacion y estadisticas individuales y deteccion pronta y oportuna,

Cons

No he encontrado como actualizar un estatus a revisado para que se anote que ya fue atendido y analizado y que se tomaron las acciones respecto de la ireegularidad/falta detectada al operador, No me localizo como cambiarlo para que quede registrado que ya fue correjido.

### "Review Samsara"

October 24, 2025

5.0

It is an excellent app to have. Most money your buck. It is easy to see all the information on a phone or a computer.

Pros

I like how user-friendly it is, and how you can track a bus anywhere it goes. I have also enjoyed the fact that there are no bugs or issues with the system. It is a good value for the money. The log management is excellent. I know how fast buses are going and how they are running. The diagnostic feature is outstanding..

Cons

They are great! No issues. The customer support is excellent, and you can easily find information about any bus you need to track.

### "Samsara Listens to their Users"

December 5, 2025

4.0

They are good people, who listen. We are not your average trucking company. Therefore many of the features are of no use to us. But I love that Samsara listens to my suggestions and have incorporated one.

Pros

Customer service is the best. Rapid responses to questions and step by step guides to help through the tough stops. Love the new DVIR 2.0. It is simple, easy to use, and intuitive for the user. Love the way it tracks and monitors the vehicles. Everything is in real time.

Cons

The dash cameras shut off after 24 hours. Some of our vehicle are special use but are parked in the yard. If the cameras had remained on, we may have seen the thieves.

### "Samsara is an awsome tool to manage your fleet"

June 13, 2025

5.0

It has been a great experience working with Samsara reps and \[sensitive content hidden\] has made getting everything setup easy. \[sensitive content hidden\] is always quick to respond if we have any questions.

Pros

I really like how we can keep track of our assists and locations. The safety in box has made a world of difference and because of it our safety has improved greatly. The Maintenace section helps us keep better track of the cost per truck to run them.

Cons

Still trying to figure out the fuel report because we use a bulk fuel tank at our location. \[sensitive content hidden\] set us up a workflow on drivers showing the amount of fuel they are putting in the truck just trying to figure out how to pull the report by tags. \[sensitive content hidden\] is working with the IT team to figure it out for us. Other than that, no cons at all.

### "10 out of 10"

December 8, 2025

5.0

I give Samsara a 10 out of 10. Their technicians have quick response, are always polite and professional. Even with the updates I am still able to navigate not only the dashboard, but the Fleet app as well.

Pros

I am still a huge fan of the safety inbox and real time alerts as well as the cameras. We have now used footage to dispute damage claims and com out victorious. I am looking forward to the newer features that are coming out.

Cons

I least like the self-coaching feature. The safety department I am in is small, and we review footage daily, but do not have the time to coach each driver. I wish that the self-coaching feature would not allow the driver to skip the assigned lessons.

Simple a utiliser et complet, visuellement clair et intuitif. La prise en main est agréable. Je n'utilise pas toute les fonction mais, je reste très satisfait des possibilités qui s'offre a moi. Samsara Fleet et Driver une évidence dans mon quotidien.

Cons

I have been thoroughly impressed by \[sensitive content hidden\] and every tech I have talked to when calling in.

Pros

Samsara has been very easy to deal with and always warm and welcoming when answering our calls. They help dumb things done for this old guy. lol

Cons

Unfortunately, the VG/Camera system did not trigger an alert that we were involved in a crash. It was a one-off because the impact was not significant enough to trigger an alert.

### "Dispatcher "

March 13, 2026

5.0

y overall experience with Samsara has been very good. The platform is easy to use, the tracking is reliable, and it helps manage vehicles and drivers efficiently. It has improved visibility into operations and made it easier to monitor safety and performance.

Pros

The best part of Samsara is the real-time vehicle tracking and the easy-to-use dashboard. It makes managing drivers, monitoring safety, and reviewing reports very straightforward.

Cons

The main downside is the price, which can be higher compared to other fleet management systems. Also, the long-term contracts make it less flexible if a company wants to change providers. Some features require extra setup, and occasional GPS or camera connectivity delays can happen.

January 30, 2026

good. our service adviser keeps us updated on new software, and keeps in contact with us if anything is needed.

Pros

Service request response is pretty on point, camera recording footage, and live feedback helps us keep on track.

Cons

wish the wiring would be bluetooth instead of wires all over. It would be easier to mount instead of trying to hide wires.

Professional and very good product The reporting that we get weekly for speeding is really interesting and has helped my drivers become safer

Pros

Ease of installation and the still photos are clear and crisp the app is easy to use and being able to share the video with my drivers is critical.

The camera mounts are with the sticky stuff hard to uninstall and cannot be reused they are kind of tricky

### "HORRIBLE customer service"

May 30, 2025

1.0

Avoid using this company; when they do respond, you'll only receive the run-around, unless it’s a salesperson trying to sign you up.

Pros

The software is a good platform, but their customer service is terrible. I will emphasize again that the customer service is terrible.

Cons

Terrible customer service; they renew contracts without notifying me. They refused to review my account when I mentioned, "I think I am being overcharged." I keep getting the runaround.

### "Great product that continues to improve on itself"

December 5, 2025

5.0

I think with the number of units we have Samsara provides top notch customer service and the product does exactly what we need it to do. It is a bit on the expensive side, but they continuedly roll out new and helpful upgrades that improve our experience an bring value to the product.

Pros

The system runs smooth and rarely is down. Customer service is prompt and doesn't take a bunch of hoops to jump through to get hardware replaced when it malfunctions.

Cons

We did have some billing issues but it was because of the way we as a company set it up and it was difficult to split up. Currently working on that now to make it easier for out accounting.

April 11, 2025

been pretty good. there are a few issues when i have to call support or when they say they will call back they don't usually they just use the email ticket support instead of following up verbally.

Pros

The organization of having everything in one place and that it links to our other systems, and that there are training videos and helpful tools when you need them.

Cons

When trying to look into having safety videos i contacted support and they said i needed to contact sales manager for our account about being able to use the driver training safety videos and we closed the ticket i reached out to who they told me and haven't had a response since.
