ServiceTrade Commercial

Vorteile

ServiceTrade has been a joy to implement and use everyday. The dev team, and everyone at ServiceTrade, have been absolutely incredible. I cannot recommend this solution enough.
From day one, we had no half measures. We jumped in both feet and never looked back. The scheduling makes planning our technicians days straightforward and clear. I could ramble on for hours about how much I love the search functionality, and the data you can quickly get to really get down into the nitty gritty of whatever you're looking for.
To my experience, any software that claims to do everything, does nothing well. ServiceTrade is near perfectly optimized for the scope it encompasses. Features are being added all the time, and the dev team are always enthusiastic. I foresee this product getting lots of love for years and years to come. This product only gets better and better.
Third party integrations have been a breeze, and a staggering amount of third party applications are available.

Nachteile

Only a couple items come to mind, none are deal breakers. A general timeclock for tracking daily general time would be helpful, however we've found a small third party solution for this. Ability to add non-billable appointments and vendor stops would also be nice, and again not a huge deal. A great unification of built-in app and web features would be a great quality of life improvement, however I have a feeling those sneaky devs are up to something already... they always are.

Vorteile

ServiceTrade has a great product that is intuitive to use. Since we subscribed 4 years ago they have continued to expand on the capabilities with updates to the software every 2-4 weeks. They are very responsive to requests for features and the customer support is super friendly and helpful. They integrate with key software companies to expand their functionality (like Intacct and Quickbooks) and they have a great API and integration with Zapier.

Nachteile

I hope they can continue to accelerate the addition of new features. There are a lot of companies out there trying to solve the same problems. I haven't seen anyone providing better value yet but I hope ServiceTrade stays ahead of the competition because whoever has the best software to manage their business will hold a significant advantage int he marketplace and we would like to stay with ServiceTrade. Switching software is a pain!

Vorteile

User friendliness is one of the most important feature of this software. Customer support is very good as well. We run our entire service department through servicetrade.

Nachteile

Not much to say here but that it is not designed specifically for fire protection companies so we had to customize to our processes.

Vorteile

The maps and the location services are handy. I also like the deficiencies areas, but working for different divisions requires adjusting to different styles by each manager. Some want each difficieny listed individually, which is time consuming, while others like all lumped under one visit which is easier.

Nachteile

The pdf loading is slow and I need to wait and make sure it loads. If signal strength is 2 bars or under the upload will fail. Also one photo at a time can be loaded. Also in defiencies

Vorteile

Pros: scheduling, job search, flexibility many of the tools in the system and business opportunities.

Nachteile

The system doesn't talk to partleger well for the desk top application when changes happen. The technical support takes along time to get answers.
