This is the first time we looked into fleet management. So we do not have any experience with other providers. I can say we are very happy with our decision to go with Motive.
Customer service is much better at Motive. The ease of use for the drivers is much better and the staff of Motive is readily available to help and quickly resolve any issues.
My last company used Omnitracs, it was a dinosaur. The equipment was near impossible to use interchangeably between trucks and the system was very clunky.
Motive were willing to negotiate with me on the cost when I was implementing the ELD services into our fleet management. The implementation and install of the hardware was very straight forward and easy to do.
Motive is more user friendly for drivers, and admins, with clean simple to use app interface and dashboard reporting options

Chose Motive
Truck X customer support is extremely difficult to understand and they take a very long time to complete one task. Each time my husband or I called it was nothing short of 20 minutes and they would talk as though we were just too stupid to make their device work properly.
The usability of Motive's platform and mobile app, particularly for tracking drivers and managing logs, would significantly impact its suitability for trucking operations. If it offers a straightforward interface, seamless navigation, and accessible features on mobile devices, it would likely enhance its effectiveness. However, if it proved challenging or lacked necessary functionalities, it might have posed obstacles to efficient fleet management.
The customer and technical support are amazing. You can talk to a real person on the phone who is knowledgeable and responsive. There are also online chat and email options.
The integration with our dispatch (TMS) software is flawless with nice features.
The total safety options are very robust. Our insurance carrier loves what we are reporting to them.
I had issues with adding another company to my fleet to track them while they were driving for my company.
I had issues when I first started using Motive with the install. Motive assisted with a talk through method, but it still didn't work. I ended up taking the truck to the shop 3x before they figured out the problem. So, I would like to see Techs nearby to assist with technical issues.
When signing into Motive upon entering and starting motor vehicle, the app and the transmitting unit pair immediately. Once paired it is extremely easy and efficiently started to populate the necessary unit information. Then entering the Work Order info is seamlessly entered to the E- log. Doing the pre and post vehicle checks is completed quite accurately.
I have had no issues with applications errors, system problems, or equipment. The items I need have been available in a reasonable amount of time. The only exception is when I have needed the correct cables sent to me and I couldn't even offer to pay for overnight myself. Manual logs are just a headache especially when you ordered the units and received them in enough time.
Support is super easy to get a hold of via the live chat feature, which is convenient; however, the helpfulness of the person I get on the live chat very much varies but for the majority of the people I get, I am usually sent links to different self help pages on the Motive website. So, support isn't unhelpful, but it could be better. However, we have a new account rep who has really been going above and beyond to help us out in the last couple of months.
