Fantastic company, lots of valuable data however back up service in my personal opinion needs additional support.

DO NOT use this company

DO NOT use this company. They charged my card almost $20,000 a month ago and have completely ghosted me. It’s happened to multiple people. I’ve been with them for years and have over 100 vehicles with them, and now I will be canceling. It’s my belief that the company is failing. Look elsewhere!

SAMSARA has got to be the worst company…

SAMSARA has got to be the worst company as far as customer services goes that I have dealt with in over ten years. I sold two vehicles and no longer require service for those particular vehicles. I requested a cancellation and was refused when my contract is set to end in 3 months. As a result of the decision by SAMSARA I will now be moving and not renewing services for any of my fleet vehicle and will sign with another company. I will also let others know SAMSARAS intentions and that they treat customers as a number with no one on one interactions.

Great system, with one issue

Great system, constantly evolving to improve and give a more rounded safety platform.
The only reason i have not scored this 5/5 is because for certain makes Samsara does not supply fuel data. if they could sort out this issue then i would happily rate it 5/5.

Service was good for three years - then downhill from there

Service was good for three years, but on renewal they will take you over the coals. Renewal rates are 2-3x what your original price is and they make it extremely difficult to cancel. I worked for 45 days sending multiple tickets (they never answer the phone) - waited 48 hours most times between responses and even after confirming my renewal contract was cancelled they still charged me at a 2.5x rate that I was on previously. I have initiated a charge back from my credit card because they answer their phones. Will never do business with them again just for the experience renewing/cancelling.

What an awful customer service they…

What an awful customer service they have here. They must not understand being in silicon valley that trucking companies are moving everybody and need immediate assistance. These guys just basically sell you the equipment and dissapear. No actually U.S office and anyone that picks up the phone is useless. Can't speak to a supervisor or solve a problem. I've been waiting 20!!!! Days for a call from renewals or a supervisor becuase they charged me 3k that I didn't approve. No one has reached out other then the generic copy paste emails asking me to "patiently wait" This is what happens when you out source all your help. I'm beyond frustrated with these guys. What kind of backwards business practice is it to charge a customer 3 years of service up front??? Are you guys not aware of the struggles with the trucking industry? I give you guys zero stars for service.

If I could give 0 stars I would

If I could give 0 stars, I would. Great software with ghosts for customer service. I have used them for over 10 years and regret every second. Their customer service is only a contract collection company. No one can actually help with problems. Use a different service, there are plenty of them out there that actually care about their customers and the software is the same.

Good tracking and coaching, poor integration

The platform is very comprehensive, the video notifications and the coaching elements work well. The tracking is good and much better than alternatives when looking in real time - and considering the price it should be!

However we were oversold. We had 2 key requirements, firstly that trailer tracking worked properly and trailers were associated with trucks/tractors. This doesn’t work properly, there’s also no real integration on the API side for trailers so updates must be done through the front end. Our second hard requirement was good integration with our existing systems, this is where samsara on paper is much better than the competition. However, their documentation is incomplete and some parts are just incorrect. When raising these as issues, they get recognised, but elevated to 2nd line and dev teams and we never receive updates/resolutions. This has made it impossible for us to have full syncing between our systems and vehicle properties in samsara, leading to updates in one system that are not mirrored in another.

In summary, the tracking and behavioural coaching is very good. On paper, the integration (API access) is the best out there, however the reality is somewhat different, the tech team is responsive before you sign the contract, less so after signing and paying.

Unprofessional

Unprofessional, Unethical, and No Customer Support – Avoid Samsara at All Costs!

My experience with Samsara has been nothing but frustrating and unprofessional. They changed my account representative without my consent, never informed me, and provided no valid reason for why this change was made. Instead of working with the team I originally set up my account with, I was forced to deal with a new team that was rude, unhelpful, and completely unprofessional.

When I tried to escalate the issue, Samsara refused to transfer my account back to my original rep and instead insisted that I continue working with the team that had already proven to be disrespectful. Their leadership has been completely unresponsive, and instead of providing clear explanations, I have been met with vague, copy-paste responses that do nothing to address the issue.

To make matters worse, when I requested to cancel my lease agreement due to these service failures, Samsara flat-out denied my request without giving any real justification. They won’t explain why they changed my rep, they won’t let me go back to my original team, and they refuse to take responsibility for their poor service.

This company does not care about its customers—they will take your money and lock you into a contract while providing terrible customer service. If you are considering Samsara, think twice before signing anything. Once you’re locked in, they will ignore your concerns and refuse to work with you in good faith.

🚨 Avoid Samsara! There are much better and more customer-friendly options out there. 🚨

Samsara has delivered excellent ROI

Samsara has delivered significant benefits and positive results in cost economies (improved mpg and tyre wear as drivers know they are being monitored for driving quality), improved visibility on drivers behaviours, so good driving can be acknowledged and rewarded (K M Group has a reward scheme) and any deficiencies addressed constructively through driver education, has proven a valuable source of indisputable and robust defensive evidence against fraudulent claims by third parties, and assisted in dynamic route planning by our Transport team. Highly recommended offering, now rolled-out across our entire Group Fleet.

Scam/Fraudulent Company

Scam/Fraudulent Company. Auto renewed $10,000.00 on our credit card from a contract 3 years ago (2022) without getting authorization. They claim we didn't "cancel" in time, but never notified us of the credit card charge. DO NOT use them! There product is ok (not great), but there are so many better/cost effective options available. You've been warned!
