Samsara is user-friendly and reliable. They have a strong uptime with almost no downtime. Their reporting tools are great and we've been lucky to get good support from their team when issues arise. I use Samsara daily and it is a large portion of my day....

Flawed technology, inaccurate data, cannot trust reporting, they are not as good as their sales staff sells. They need to focus on fixing their core products as opposed to trying to add new revenue generating features.
