Samsara allows companies to connect their fleets, equipment and sites within one integrated platform, where they can analyze data about safety, location, utilization, maintenance, compliance, and energy and fuel efficiency, generating meaningful insights for their business. This allows customers to quickly address issues in real-time, proactively manage maintenance requirements and provide valuable context for any situation.
