Real-time tracking is the best part for me, honestly yaar. Before Geotab, a driver would say, “Sir, two minutes only,” and then we’d end up waiting thirty minutes. Now I just open the dashboard and see what’s actually happening, oh, he’s still on the highway, okay, fine.

The fuel reports are also very helpful. Every week I check who is doing harsh braking and who is speeding too much. We had one driver who was always over-speeding, but he would never admit it. Then I showed him the data on the screen, and he had nothing to say. After that, he improved a lot.

The dashboard isn’t too complicated either. My operations guy isn’t really into computers, but even he learned within a week how to pull the reports. I wasn’t expecting that, so it was a good surprise.

One more thing: the alerts we set up, like if a vehicle is moving after office hours or if the engine is running too long without moving. One night we got an alert that a vehicle was moving at 11 pm, and nobody was supposed to be driving. We called the driver immediately. That feature alone is worth it for us. It gives real peace of mind when you’re managing so many vehicles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly the main problem is the interface it is a little bit overwhelming when you first start using. So many menus, so many options, you don't know where to go. First two three weeks I was totally confused, had to call support many times.

And the mobile app it works, but it is not as smooth as the main website. Sometimes it is slow to load, sometimes tracking is not refreshing properly. For me personally I am doing most things on laptop only, but my operations guy he prefers phone and he always complaining about this.

Customer support also sometimes ticket is raised and then two three days no response. For urgent issues this is very frustrating. Once our tracking was not updating for few vehicles and we had to wait almost one full day to get proper help. That time we were totally blind, no idea where vehicles are.

Pricing also I will mention it is not cheap yaar. For small fleet owner like me, the cost is feeling a little high sometimes. And if you want some advanced features, that is extra cost on top. So you have to plan budget carefully.

And one more small thing the report customization, it is there but it is not very intuitive. Sometimes I want simple custom report and I have to spend too much time figuring out how to set it up properly. Wish it was little more simpler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This system stands out for its dynamic interface and a notably faster and smoother user experience compared to other solutions on the market. Beyond its operational agility, the platform enhances asset management through the integration of Artificial Intelligence, which allows for predictive analysis of fleet status and automates real-time anomaly detection. This complements the high precision of the GPS and the robustness of its detailed reports, enabling proactive management of critical alerts during the journey. Additionally, its architecture allows for seamless integration with external systems (ERP or CRM), centralizing information and ensuring total control, all backed by specialized technical support that ensures operational continuity.

Although the GPS accuracy is satisfactory, the platform has experienced general intermittencies at various times of the day which, despite being addressed swiftly, tend to coincide with periods of highest operational demand. This situation compromises the continuity of real-time monitoring right at the most critical work peaks, making it difficult to constantly track the units and affecting the efficiency in logistical decision-making.

Hours of service/Electronic Logs Platform, Visibility of assets, diagnostics and driver behaviors. ability to track fuel consumption, reporting and top level support from Bosch telematics Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The HOS platform seems to be set up more for highway drivers than for regional vehicles, and that leads to false non-compliance reporting for our operation. For example, the rest-break requirement is shown as 10 hours per day, even though our drivers meet that requirement overnight rather than in increments throughout the day. Another limitation is the pre-trip inspection forms: there’s no ability to change the sequence of items, which makes the workflow less practical for how we complete inspections.

Geotab is a feature-rich telematics provider with a broad range of applications and functionality for fleets. It’s a well-developed product that delivers real-time, actionable insights. Reporting is especially powerful and is one of the most commonly used features in our organization, both through the out-of-the-box reports and the custom reports. The integrations it offers are also very powerful and we use regularly.

They have recently launched an AI reporting enhancement which has answered many questions for us about our data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The User Interface/portal can be intimidating for first time users and slightly cumbersome but with enough training and guidance it becomes more familiar over time.

We would also say that maintenance tracking side of the application is also very basic and not a replacement for more advanced software applications that specialize in this space. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It allows us to track our moving assets, generate reports on fuel mileage, notify mechanics when trucks are nearing their service hours, and pull dash cam footage for review. the ability to one click zoom in on a group of assets feels quick and smooth has the benefit of quickly review where any group of assets are parked/moving.

The reliance on cellular data has become a major hindrance for us. Even simple valleys along the road can cause our units to lose connection. When our drivers travel into the Northwest Territories, they often don’t have a strong enough signal, which prevents us from tracking them to confirm they’re still moving and safe. Although the units do come back online eventually, the downtime creates a stressful situation because we’re unable to communicate with our drivers until they reach an area with a stronger signal.

The platform is user friendly and our drivers are able to learn how to navigate it easily. I like that our drivers can use it on their company issued tablets as well as their personal phones and the data is seamless no matter what device they use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish it was more customizable. I also wish the reporting was easier to use. I also wish there was better training available for drivers. Specifically on how Geotab manages the split sleeper provision. A lot of our violations come from drivers not realizing their Geotab registered a split sleeper after a 2 hour break but they don’t do 8 in the sleeper so it goes back and takes that extra 2 hours from them. I think there should be a button that they have to select to use the split sleeper instead of it being automatically applied. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It kicks into drive with the slightest move. Sometimes its just moving from the lineup to the loadingsquare. Or making room for another truck in the lineup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best is the real-time GPS tracking and how everything lives in one dashboard. I can see where every vehicle is at a glance, pull up trip history, and spot issues like harsh braking or idling without digging through separate tools. The custom reports are a big plus too, since I can set them up once and have them land in my inbox automatically Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My main gripe is that the interface can feel cluttered and the learning curve is steeper than it needs to be. Finding a specific setting sometimes means digging through several menus, and some of the more advanced reports take trial and error to configure. The mobile app also feels a bit limited compared to the desktop version, so I usually wait until I’m at my computer for anything beyond a quick check Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I can see where assets are in real time. The trip history is excellent; if I get a driving complaint, it makes it much easier to identify the offender. I also appreciate being able to schedule recurring reports, so I don’t have to manually run them every week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Reports aren’t intuitive and can be cumbersome to run when you’re trying to pull the specific data you need. Because the assets are pinged periodically, you don’t always get precise data for location, speed, etc. Also, if a vehicle is crossing over another street or highway, the posted speed limit may be pulled from the cross street, which can make it look like our driver is speeding when he isn’t.

What I like most about Geotab is that it's not just a simple GPS. It's a very open platform (with API and SDK), so you can easily connect it to any application. The data comes directly from the car's computer, not estimated. Plus, in terms of electric fleets and security, they are far ahead of the rest of the market.

What annoys me the most is that the MyGeotab interface is quite cluttered and has a steep learning curve; it's not intuitive at all at first. Additionally, direct technical support can be slow, and to generate truly useful custom reports, you have to get tangled up in advanced settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
