If your business dispatches field workers to customer locations to provide repairs and services, you face unique challenges. You must know what’s happening in the field to provide exceptional customer service. Regardless of your industry, customer base, or employee needs, technology plays a critical role in managing field services.
It’s nearly impossible to run a business efficiently if field services uses entry-level software, disconnected systems, spreadsheets, and paper-based processes. Entry-level software can’t handle all the moving parts, and unintegrated systems force you to enter data into multiple places. Spreadsheets are error-prone workarounds, and paper-based processes lead to lost information.
You can’t afford to have your customer representatives searching for inventory in a spreadsheet and questioning its accuracy. Or scribbling notes on paper as the phone rings off the hook with service calls. Or field workers submitting handwritten job sheets that require your accounting staff to manually enter data. Or creating incorrect invoices that delay payment and negatively affect cash flow.

Imagine how much smoother your business would run if you managed field services in one modern solution—from the initial call to post-service customer care.
