Azuga review and pricing

Bridgestone-backed SMB telematics with OBD-II plug-and-play option.

By Azuga, Inc. (Bridgestone subsidiary) · Founded 2012 · San Jose, CA · public

Azuga is a US, San Jose, California telematics vendor founded 2012 by Ananth Rani and acquired by Bridgestone Americas in 2021 for a reported $391M as part of Bridgestone's mobility solutions strategy. The product covers vehicle GPS, ELD compliance, AI dashcam (SafetyCam), driver rewards gamification (a category-distinct feature), and bundles with Bridgestone tire and roadside programs. Best fit for SMB and lower-mid-market North American fleets of 5-100 vehicles wanting an OBD-II plug-and-play option, aggressive promotional pricing, and a path to bundle telematics with tire and roadside service through Bridgestone. Trade-offs: post-acquisition Bridgestone integration progress has been uneven, the product roadmap has slowed visibly versus 2019-2020 pace, customer support quality has declined in 2024-2026 G2 reviews, and enterprise-tier capability lags Samsara, Verizon Connect, Motive and Geotab.

Best for

SMB and lower-mid-market US fleets of 5-100 light vehicles in field service trades (plumbing, HVAC, electrical, pest control, locksmith) wanting OBD-II plug-and-play install and bundled tire / roadside through Bridgestone.

Worst for

Trucking under FMCSA ELD (Motive or Samsara better), enterprise fleets above 250 vehicles, fleets outside North America, or buyers prioritizing best-in-class support response time.
