About Motive
Motive (formerly KeepTruckin) built its business on ELD compliance for trucking and has grown into a full fleet platform covering GPS tracking, AI dash cams, fuel management, driver safety scoring and its own fleet fuel card. It is particularly strong with owner operators and small to mid-size trucking fleets, and is one of the few major providers offering shorter contract terms, with 12-month minimums common.
About Verizon Connect
Verizon Connect is the fleet arm of Verizon, offering GPS tracking (Reveal), integrated video, field service dispatch and compliance tools on the strength of Verizon's cellular network. It suits fleets that value telco-grade infrastructure, OEM integrations and an existing Verizon business relationship, and sells through a consultative, quote-based process.
Motive and Verizon Connect pricing
Motive does not publish fixed prices, but third-party estimates and buyer reports in 2026 consistently place it around $20 to $45 per vehicle per month depending on the plan, with hardware often discounted or bundled on longer terms. Verizon Connect does not publish rates; 2026 third-party estimates generally place core tracking around $20 to $40 per vehicle per month, historically on 36-month agreements, though it now advertises more flexible term options. Hardware is typically $130 to $250 per vehicle when itemized. The calculator multiplies each side's per-vehicle subscription by your fleet size and contract length, adds upfront hardware, and compares contract totals, which is the only fair way to compare offers with different hardware and term structures.
How they compare
Both companies sell full fleet telematics, so the comparison above is like-for-like: the same vehicles, the same contract length, and each side's typical per-vehicle subscription and hardware. Motive offers shorter contracts and a trucking-first feature set, while Verizon Connect brings telco-backed infrastructure, dispatch and field service tools, and appeals to fleets already inside the Verizon ecosystem. Verizon Connect's quote-based 36-month deals contrast with Motive's more flexible terms.
