## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-05 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> The honest answer up front: "fleet management" splits into two different purchases for a delivery firm, and most buyers need one from each column - **telematics/compliance** (where are my vehicles, are drivers safe and legal, is the van maintained) and **last-mile dispatch/routing** (how do I sequence 300 stops and give customers an ETA). Here's who I'd actually name.
> 
> ## Telematics + vehicle/driver management
> 
> **1. Samsara** - my default for anyone running 25+ vehicles. GPS, AI dashcams, ELD, maintenance, and site/equipment tracking on one platform, with the best-developed API and integration ecosystem of the group, so it can feed a separate routing tool. 4.5/5 across ~950 reviews. The catch is commercial: roughly **$27-45/vehicle/month**, typically on a 36-month auto-renewing contract, no public pricing.
> 
> **2. Motive** (formerly KeepTruckin) - the one I'd name first for small and mid-size fleets. Comparable GPS and AI dashcam quality, FMCSA-registered ELD, similar 4.5/5 rating on a larger review base, but **~$25-35/vehicle/month with a 12-month minimum** instead of three years. For a 50-van fleet that's roughly $1,500/mo vs Samsara's ~$1,900/mo, plus far less contract lock-in.
