## Reviews

### "Can’t get my money back. Horrible service. Horrible people" — 1.0/5

> **Makhmud** | *8 April 2025* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It was all good until the price increase. Was not happy about it and decided to cancel but can’t refund.
> 
> **Cons**: Horrible customer service. Trying to cancel the subscription and they won’t refund me for the months that I won’t be using their service.
> 
> Had motive for many years. Few months before 2025 got an email saying there will be price increase. Wasn’t happy and I replied to the same email saying do not charge me because I won’t be renewing my subscription I no longer will be using motive. Ended up still getting charged with the price increase. Used it for couple of months now trying to cancel and they won’t refund me for the months that I won’t be using.

### "Motive is pretty good solution." — 4.0/5

> **Peter** | *25 September 2025* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Motive is fairly easy to use, their desktop give easy access to vehicle tracking, as well as use of camera to record event. easy to download just need date and time of any incident you might want.  we also use it for eld drive logging, lets us know if drive is short on hours or is in violation.  maintenance tab helps keep track of up coming preventive maintenance that you may require. their billing is pretty standard in monthly or yearly charge. last DOT is very familiar with this system and have had no trouble getting info downloaded to them during an inspection.
> 
> **Cons**: biggest con is we run a lot of new york state toll roads and on ifta reports print out they do not break down toll miles vs regular road miles, just gives a total for the state. so drivers still have to manually keep a written record of toll miles.  If you look at their faq page there it says they do but you have to go thru each trip, for each truck, each day. who has time to do that?  customer service told us that after we called them on it.
> 
> over all motive works well,  just wish they would make it so a driver could go total paperless in states that have tolls.

### "Motive review" — 4.0/5

> **ROBERT** | *8 December 2025* | Logistics & Supply Chain | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: One good thing about Motive was the accuracy of the location of our assets and the event detection that would come from one of our drivers.
> 
> **Cons**: The only Con from me for Motive was it is very hard to get ahold of a live customer service agent. They always wanted you to use AI chats.
> 
> I was in the Safety and DOT Compliance role with Motive. I watched our events that came in from our drivers and kept up with some DOT inspections that were due.

### "Transforming Fleet Safety and Efficiency" — 5.0/5

> **Sandro** | *17 September 2025* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Motive’s real-time tracking and visibility of trucks and trailers has been one of the biggest pros. It allows us to monitor the fleet more efficiently, reduce downtime, and improve decision-making on the spot.&#10;&#10;3.
> 
> **Cons**: The mobile app could be more user-friendly for drivers, especially when they need to upload documents or review logs quickly.
> 
> Our overall experience with Motive has been very positive. The platform has streamlined our fleet operations, improved safety, and given us much better visibility into day-to-day performance. It has become an essential tool for both management and drivers.

### "Nature vs nurture" — 5.0/5

> **Elizabeth** | *17 September 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that several times when there was a possible circumstance beyond my control, that could have lead to an accident(but did not) the camera is there to be my back up\!
> 
> **Cons**: It keeps telling me to buckle up(which I do actually appreciate) when I'm already wearing it. It's not covered up by clothing or anything else. Also, when in heavy traffic, I always back up or slow down to allow for space between myself \&amp; traffic in front of me yet I'll get a reminder to not follow so close. I usually try to count the appropriate seconds that are required.
> 
> I see the overall value of the camera \&amp; see that it has made many drivers more aware while driving to stay focused on the task at hand., accident free.
