Gorilla Safety Fleet Management review

Phone-based ELD for the smallest carriers.

Verdict

Gorilla Safety is the wildcard because it sells an ELD that runs on the driver's own phone, with the page claiming minimal upfront cost and an outside firm assessing its compliance process, in a market where most vendors lead with hardware and sales calls.

What customers praise

The page says logs are calculated down to the minute rather than rounded, and that drivers use an app on their phone so there is no extra device in the cab. It says KPMG assesses the solution, testing processes and security governance.

What customers criticise

No price, plan or contract term is shown, and no FMCSA registration identifier appears on the pages we opened. Headquarters and founding date are not stated. Support runs Monday to Friday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Central, so weekend breakdowns may go unanswered.

Best for

Small carriers that want a phone-based ELD with minimal upfront cost and a support line staffed on weekdays.
