A Year in Review: SambaSafety Release Notes

SambaSafety’s Matt O’Shields, Product Manager, Steve Schwindt, Sr. Product Manager, and Michele Cook, Principal Product Manager, helped host Rich Lacey, Chief Product Officer kick off the first episode of The Prodcast, a technology-focused podcast. This panel of experts assembled to share insights on the many product innovations SambaSafety launched in 2020.

One of Liffrig’s product focuses this year is called Driver Activities.

“Simply put, an activity is any event that impacts a driver’s safety,” Liffrig said. “All the activity we recorded was generated from monitoring systems. What we are debuting with this feature is the ability for Qorta users to add activity from sources in addition to those monitoring systems.”

Activity is a new feature in Q Enterprise, a simple add on for any Qorta customer.

O’Shields’ focus is on another feature related to Driver Activities called Activity Alerts. This product came about due to customer requests for a workflow tool to help them review new activity.

“Alerts is designed with that in mind,” O’Shields said. “Think of alerts as the inbox for all of your most important mobility risk information updates about your drivers.” O’Shields said the customer feedback is overwhelmingly positive since launching the product a few months ago.

The Alert framework used in Activity Alerts extends to CSA-specific functionality.

“Inspection Management is all about helping our customers and ensuring that regulated motor carriers properly process roadside inspection activity,” Schwindt said. “It’s very workflow-based, and we felt it would fit perfectly within this alerts framework and be able to leverage all of those great features and functions from Activity Alerts.”

On the insurance carrier side of SambaSafety, Cook updated the panel on the exciting things happening with the Volta platform.

“Our new Volta quote features are all about ensuring consumers receive that streamlined and accurate insurance shopping experience every time they shop or purchase a policy,” Cook said. “And that also requires that the carrier is pricing correctly for that risk while they’re doing this.”
