## Reviews

### "fleet dispatcher" — 5.0/5

> **Anonymous User** | *17 July 2025* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I liked most about the Motive GPS system is its real-time tracking and safety-focused features. The AI-powered dashcams and driver scoring tools help improve accountability and reduce risky driving behaviors. Its intuitive dashboard makes it easy to monitor vehicle health, fuel usage, and compliance, all in one place. Plus, the mobile app keeps everything accessible on the go, which is a big win for field operations.
> 
> **Cons**: one limitation we've encountered is the lack of flexibility in custom reporting. While the standard reports cover basic needs, they don’t allow for deeper customization based on specific metrics or operational goals. Expanding this feature would make the platform even more powerful.
> 
> My overall experience with the Motive GPS system has been excellent. It offers reliable real-time tracking, intuitive dashboards, and powerful safety features like AI-powered dashcams and driver behavior scoring. These tools have helped us improve accountability and reduce risky driving incidents. The system is easy to use, integrates well with our operations, and provides clear insights that support better decision-making. Overall, Motive has made our fleet safer, more efficient, and easier to manage.

### "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.

### "Safety Director" — 5.0/5

> **Bob** | *5 January 2026* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy for drivers to use and operate. Backend office is simple and easy to manage. FMCSA compliance is top priority. Help was normally just a phone call away if needing assistance.
> 
> **Cons**: Sales department. Never push or be over bearing. Let the product sell itself... Customer Service wasn't to bad when needed
> 
> Let's go back to 2016 when I first had the chance to experience this awesome trucking ELD app and it's software when Motive used to be "Keep Truckin". One of the first to offer a free to use/ try before you buy kind of deal. It was a great way to let people experience what would soon be coming down the road in the near future for HOS compliance... Literally\! It was good back then and has only gotten better\!&#10;&#10;Fast forward to 2026, the same awesome service plus some added features that stand at the top of the leader board with the best ELD products on the market. User friendly software on both ends for the driver and office management personnel, all with full FMCSA Compliance.

### "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.
