There is no comparison. ServSuite's mobile app was a complete joke and PestPac felt like it was built in the 90s... To train people in either software to be proficient took weeks. You can train in FieldRoutes in a couple of days. The software is intuitive and functions well …

I know of IFS but I do not think it is a worthy or close competitor to Salesforce Field Service lightning as its not that user friendly yet with a complicated interface. Also it does not have the name and respect and brand value that Salesforce commands in the market thereby …

We found that it works well for most of our needs. It is user-friendly and easy to use for both the office staff and the field staff. One problem that they have not been able to fix is for the field technicians to take credit cards in the field. We tried the beta program and unloaded and reloaded the software on the iPads, and we still have that problem.

  • License could be less pricier esp. the dispatcher license
  • Restricted workflows and data visibility, along with slow performance can complicate the experience for the technician
  • Since we use devices primarily for this like Ipad and Android devices, the mobile app needs to be improved which crashes often

As of right now there is not a alternative that seems to offer all of the functionality with a vision of what is needed in the future. It is my belief that ClickSoftware will remain a leader in Mobile Workforce Management for a long time.

Having a program that gives sales leaders a real time view was game changing. Time was always an issue because there wasn't always a sales leader available for closing sales. This has allowed for any sales leader to jump in and help make the sale without the need to do a warm transfer.

Overall the training was quite informative but did lack detail in some areas. It had all of the necessary content for an experience product user but didn't offer enough information for a new user to complete the training and then feel comfortable in real-world situations running or managing the software. I would recommend this course for anyone with at least 1 year of full-time exposure to the ClickSchedule product.
