Kickserv vs. ServiceTitan

We use KickServ for nearly every aspect of our operation and cannot think of a scenario when it is "inappropriate" or "less appropriate". It is the backbone of our operation and is used for everything from data gathering to estimates to invoices to payments and accounts receivables to reports to tracking to storage of photos and past invoices. Better searching abilities would be good instead of having to create tags for things we don't know we are going to need later.

ServiceTitan seems to be incredibly customizable depending on what is needed, and therefore I would recommend it in any case where customers and jobs are recorded and scheduled. It can be used in a variety of ways and has multiple functions, including revenue and inventory tracking. Whether a big or small company, I feel with proper training anyone could utilize ServiceTitan very effectively to improve both productivity and record-keeping.

• Organization - keeps everything organized nicely and has several different filters that you can use to view only the information you need.
• Simple website - this was important because you want it to load quickly when you are in the office and on the road.
• Database - keeps track of the things that you enter. This is nice when trying to get information on a product or a price when requested by the customer.

• Real-time tracking. The biggest problem in logistics in, my opinion, is knowing if your products are arriving on time or not especially as it pertains to food, that was huge here.
• Most of our managers travel constantly from corporate to distribution because of how centralized the company is they needed something flexible that allowed them to run reports whenever and however.
• Ease of use - I'll be honest in that our employees are not the cream of the crop as it pertains to their education, this software made the learning process simple.

• Some of the reports are difficult for us to extract the data that we want. Sometimes I will get duplicated data, so I have to dump the files into Excel to make sure I've extracted any duplicates.
• Never was able to log in to the Android App, so I just gave up and kept using the mobile browser based option.

Incentivized

• We'd like to be able to text estimates (currently, email is the only function)
• We'd like to have audit trails on Customer and Location records (currently only at the job level)
• We'd like to be able to email/text the customer multiple options within estimates, like the techs can do on their tablet, it's just not a function that can be presented by the office.

It's perfect for our company. We rely on it. Tech support is great. We're very happy.

It is intuitive enough, but there is some training that will be necessary because of a perceived redundancy within their workflow. It can be hard to distinguish which stage a customer is in (thus what the most important thing to be working on, if you are in sales, for instance) without some training.

I rarely run into any issues while using ServiceTitan other than the occasional scheduled maintenance. It is very intuitive and easy to learn, with many capabilities that can be suited to any job position in a business. The functions are consistent regardless of your department or use case, and can be easily customized to fit any and all of a company's needs.

Very good technical help. The team is well-versed in their product and what to look for, particularly when interacting with other software platforms. You nearly always get a live person when you call, and if you don't, they will return your call promptly. This is another factor in my client's decision to move forward with their solution.

Easier to use than Salesforce. More robust than Zoho. More functionality that is easier to learn than both.

• For companies in construction, worksite management, or piece-work or punch-list management needs who are currently running disparate, disconnected systems. Kickserv is among the best at getting them up to speed and running in an all-digital platform... fast.

• We can more effectively retain customers and send them offers if it's been a while since their last visit.
• Our cash flow has dramatically improved because now the technicians invoice everything.
• We can get estimates out the door within the hour, not days later.
