Rated highest in innovation
Lytx was ranked highest in innovation, with ABI reporting the company’s work in solution options, driver behavior monitoring, use cases, cameras and sensors, advanced reporting, and cloud/convergence capabilities. Additional innovative features cited were the solution’s Device Health dashboard, which elevates visibility of device functionality and scheduled maintenance, frequent system updates that make it easy to add or update cameras, and, for resellers, reusable UI components that help technology partners reduce time to market and accelerate digital transformation.
ABI’s Luitel observed that the video telematics marketplace of today is seeing a surge in innovations to help capture an expanding range of risk, as well as implement dimensions of safety and driver participation. “Vendors like Lytx have addressed this by combining gateway products with data-powered applications,” Luitel said. “These solutions help equip fleet managers with tactical dashboards, allowing advanced reporting in real time. Using Lytx’s solutions, fleet managers can start deriving insights immediately.”
Luitel went on to note that Lytx’s area of strength and its differentiator is its proven success and focus on driver safety. “Demonstrating an ability to digitalize a wide range of driver behavior, as well as implement dimensions of safety and driver participation, have resulted in Lytx securing first place for innovation,” he said.
Implementation superiority
Lytx also earned a top implementation score, with Luitel citing the company’s strong organizational health, ecosystem partnerships, and product portfolios. “As the global market leader in subscriptions, Lytx protects and connects more than 5,000 fleets, occupying a majority of the North American video telematics market for large fleets,” he said. “The Lytx customer base extends beyond enterprise and mid-market segments to various industries such as trucking, distribution, field services, transit, waste, construction, and the public sector.”
Industry leadership
To be named as a “Leader” in the ABI report, a commercial video telematics solution provider must score 75 or above (using ABI’s root mean square methodology) for its overall ranking. Providers ranking between 60 and 75 are deemed “Mainstream,” and those scoring 60 or below are deemed “Followers.”
Lytx was one of only two industry providers to earn the Leader award alongside Geotab, a global reseller partner that offers Lytx video telematics via Lytx’s Surfsight® solution.
