The best fleet management software of 2026

Fleetio is fleet maintenance and records software. Its plans are software only, and it gets location, odometer and engine data through integrations with telematics, fuel card and safety providers. Drivers and technicians use the Fleetio Go app on iOS and Android, in English or Spanish.

Prices are per vehicle and on the website. Essential costs $4 per vehicle a month billed yearly or $5 month to month, and covers vehicle records, limited inspections, up to 10 vehicle groups, 2.5GB of documents and unlimited users. Professional ($7 a vehicle a month, yearly only) adds work orders, up to 15 automations, custom fields and webhooks. Premium ($10, yearly only) adds job tracking, Smart Uploads, up to 75 automations and higher API limits. Fleetio says rates move with fleet size and contract term; the figures above are for a five-vehicle fleet (checked November 4, 2026). Tracking tools and small equipment is an add-on from about $0.50 per item a month.

Work orders cost more. They start at Professional, and the plan table marks them as limited there. You can try any plan free for 14 days without a card.

Choose it if you already have GPS trackers or a fuel card and want one place for service history, inspections and running costs.

Skip it if you also need the tracking hardware, since Fleetio does not sell it. Samsara or Azuga cover both.

Simply Fleet is the cheapest way on this list to move vehicle maintenance off a spreadsheet. The free plan covers five vehicles and three users and keeps six months of data. Paid plans need at least five vehicles and no annual contract, and you can change plans or vehicle counts at any time.

Essential costs $3 per vehicle a month, or $30 a vehicle a year paid yearly, and includes preventive maintenance reminders, fuel, service and expense logs, digital inspections, trips and unlimited users. Advanced costs $5 per vehicle a month ($50 a year) and adds work orders, parts inventory and priority support. Fleets over 500 vehicles get volume pricing.

Three add-ons cost $0.50 per vehicle or item a month each: a telematics connection that pulls in odometer readings and turns fault codes into issues, a WEX fuel card import, and small tools and equipment tracking (prices checked November 4, 2026). The FAQ names Geotab, Samsara, Motive and Verizon Connect among the telematics providers it connects to.

One warning. The same page's FAQ still quotes $2 and $4 for the two plans and says prices change on September 15, 2026, so get the rate in writing when you sign up.

Choose it if you run a small fleet and want service reminders and history without a contract.

Skip it if you want GPS tracking or dash cams from the same company.

Samsara sells connected devices and software for vehicles, trailers, equipment and work sites, and groups them into Safety, Telematics, and Trailers and Equipment packages. Telematics Premier covers live vehicle location, driver performance and maintenance planning. Telematics Enterprise adds AI fuel insights, transport management system integrations and route tools for drivers and dispatchers. Safety Premier covers AI event detection, real-time alerts and footage that can clear a driver after an incident, and Safety Enterprise adds more than 30 risk detections, weather risk alerts and coaching and training tools. For trailers and equipment there are compact trackers with asset recovery, and a tier with diagnostics and usage data.

Every paid license includes Samsara Assistant, which answers questions about your fleet data, with higher-usage AI Pro and AI Max tiers on top.

Samsara publishes no prices, contract terms or trial. Each package leads to a pricing request and the page asks how many vehicles or assets you run, with bands from one to five up to more than 5,000 (checked November 4, 2026).

Choose it if you want cameras, telematics and equipment tracking under one contract and one login.

Skip it if you run a few vans and want a price before a sales call. Azuga publishes its per-vehicle rates.

Motive covers the jobs a trucking or field operation runs into every day: AI dash cams, an electronic logging device (ELD) for hours-of-service rules, IFTA fuel tax reports, GPS tracking for vehicles and assets, reefer monitoring, maintenance and accident management. It also issues its own Motive fleet card, so fuel spending sits in the same system as the trucks that used the fuel, and it has tools for driver qualifications, time tracking, training and coaching.

Motive sells by industry. Its site names trucking and logistics, construction, field service, delivery, food and beverage, oil and gas, passenger transit, utilities, and waste and recycling, among others.

Prices are not published. The pricing link on Motive's site opens a contact form, so expect a quote, and ask about contract length and hardware cost before you sign (checked November 4, 2026).

Choose it if your drivers keep electronic logs and you want cameras, compliance and fuel card spend in one app.

Skip it if you want a monthly contract with a price you can see first. Azuga publishes prices, and Simply Fleet has no annual contract.

Geotab is one of the largest telematics companies. It says it has more than 100,000 customers and connects about 6 million vehicles and assets. It sells two subscription plans, both available in more than 130 countries.

GO Core covers GPS tracking and live maps, trip history and alerts, basic routing and dispatch, maintenance schedules by odometer and engine hours, inspections and work orders, basic IFTA reports and fuel economy per vehicle. GO Plan adds AI safety scoring and collision risk, HOS/ELD and tachograph compliance, predictive maintenance and fault codes, fuel and idling reports, EV monitoring, emissions reporting and video telematics with AI dash cams. Both plans include Geotab hardware with no upfront device or installation fee, and you can upgrade from GO Core to GO Plan inside MyGeotab without swapping devices.

Geotab lists no prices. You ask its sales team or one of its resellers for a quote. Its Marketplace lists add-on apps from other companies that work with Geotab data (checked November 4, 2026).

Choose it if you run vehicles in more than one country, or need tachograph compliance as well as US hours-of-service logs.

Skip it if you want to buy online without talking to a sales team or reseller.

Azuga, a Bridgestone company, is the tracking hardware company on this list that publishes its monthly prices. BasicFleet costs $25 per vehicle a month and covers GPS tracking, alerts, driver scores and driver rewards, reports, scheduled maintenance and geofences. SafeFleet costs $30 and adds safety and efficiency tools. CompleteFleet costs $35 and adds tailored services, including a dedicated customer success manager. Every plan includes unlimited phone, email and web support.

The tracker plugs into the vehicle's OBD port, and Azuga says it takes about 20 seconds to install. Its SafetyCam AI dual-facing camera is an add-on at $41.99 a month, though the top of the same page says cameras start at $49.99 a month (prices checked November 4, 2026). The page does not state the contract length or any hardware charge, so ask for both in writing.

The driver rewards program is the unusual part. Drivers earn rewards for good scores, which gives you a positive way to push safer driving alongside the alerts.

Choose it if you want to know the per-vehicle cost of tracking before a sales call.

Skip it if you only need maintenance records. Fleetio and Simply Fleet cost a fraction of Azuga's price per vehicle.

Verizon Connect's pitch is breadth. Its FAQ argues that most tracking providers sell one thing, while Verizon Connect can supply GPS tracking, ELD, route planning, dispatch and work order management, so you buy once and the pieces already talk to each other.

The tracking software, Reveal, has live maps with route replay, geofences, alerts, dashboards and reports. You can add integrated video, asset tracking, DVIR inspections, vehicle health and maintenance, and electric vehicle management, and you can connect other software yourself through its integrations.

Verizon Connect does not publish prices. The plans and pricing link leads to a sales contact, and its sales line is open seven days a week, with longer hours on weekdays (checked November 4, 2026).

Choose it if you would rather buy tracking, logs, routing and dispatch from one supplier than join several smaller tools together.

Skip it if you run a small fleet and want a self-serve trial. Fleetio and Simply Fleet both let you start without a sales call.

ClearPathGPS sells to field service companies. Its site names HVAC, landscaping, pest control, construction and agriculture among the industries it serves, and its plans are month to month with no long-term contract. Qualifying plans carry no upfront hardware cost, although the page does not say which plans qualify.

Standard covers live vehicle location, geofences, a basic report library and US-based support. Pro adds advanced reports, custom real-time alerts, text-to-dispatch, partner integrations, open API access, a Google-powered location panel and ClearShare, which sends a customer a link to see where their technician is. A vehicle dash cam costs $30 a month extra on either plan (checked November 4, 2026). The site also sells asset and trailer trackers, HOS and ELD, and fleet maintenance tools.

ClearPathGPS does not publish its per-vehicle rates. You book a free demo and get a quote.

Choose it if you run service vans and want to cancel at the end of any month, or want customers to see when the technician will arrive.

Skip it if you want a price before the demo. Azuga publishes its per-vehicle rates.
