Salesforce Field Service is a powerful and feature-rich solution for managing field service operations. With AI-driven scheduling, seamless mobile access for technicians, and deep integration with the Salesforce ecosystem, it helps businesses enhance efficiency, improve customer satisfaction, and optimize service delivery. While it may be costly and complex to implement, its scalability and ability to grow with your business make it a worthwhile investment for many organizations.

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.

Cons
  • 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

  • Not easy or fast to locate individual transactions in the portal
  • Too many steps to view customer details

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.

Online Training
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.

  • They have allowed us to continue accepting online and over the phone payments with no issues
  • We cannot refund transactions over 45 days which has increased the amount of checks we have to cut for refunds
