WorkWave, an IFS company, offers field service management for smaller entities (WorkWave Service) and for enterprise field service companies (ServMan). The services can include marketing (WorkWave Marketing) and WorkWave Payments payment processing system.
Mhelpdesk is perfect for smaller companies and mid-sized companies I would say. Larger companies may need something a little more advanced for lack of better words or able to handle thousands upon thousands of constant work orders, etc. Smaller companies or companies that are mid-size would benefit from this program the most as it provides the necessary programming to succeed along with its ease of use.
WorkWave Service is great for a company that can integrate it with their software for credit card processing. I feel that it can work for companies of any size. However, finding individual transactions is time-consuming. If you are a company that will need to search for transactions, it is not as easy as putting in search criteria. You have to select a date range then search through all transactions for that range, you can sort, but it can still take some time. WorkWave Service handles our workload very well and we have minimal issues with the product and the customer service.
I spoke about reporting, perhaps they can make this system a little better by integrating new ways to report, perhaps even several options .
The mobile app sometimes lags which can cause a few issues, nothing too major however.
Although the customer support provided by Mhelpdesk is relatively great, there have been times when things go unsolved or not taken care of within the amount of time needed.
When we first started using Mhelpdesk, RepairShopr was just a blip on our radar and didn't have the feature-set that Mhelpdesk did. RepairShopr looked great, but the Mhelpdesk had a lot more features. Every 6 months or so, I'd check on RepairShopr and it was growing fast and adding new features all the time. After a few years - the difference was night and day so we switched to RepairShopr and it's been a much better fit for our business.
We are 6 months into it with a 50% rollout completed. We need more time to pass and full rollout to be completed before making a hard statement as to the ROI.
We have already seen greater efficiency in dispatching techs in regards to how many projects per day may be handled (we know of their downtime) and travel time mangement (by being able to map the locations and track them easier).
No negative impacts on ROI have yet to be seen nor are they projected.
