Verizon offers a fleet management platform in Verizon Connect, emphasizing asset tracking and GPS, clear maps and route optimization, and fleet KPI tracking.
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.
The interface is great, but the required installation is too long and too involved for the average owner operator. It is great for a large company that wants a fleet wide product, but to use on a small business it is too cumbersome and requires too much training. Also setting up a time to install the product can be time consuming and bothersome. The product is excellent and the app is great, but getting to that is what takes a few points off.
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.
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.
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.
Verizon Connect has great customer service. Our account manager has always replied quickly to any inquiries of mine and has been very knowledgeable and reliable. Drivers who've occasionally needed to call into the customer service helpline have quickly had their questions answered and problems resolved. All reports I've received from them about their experiences have been positive, stating that the Verizon Connect employees have been courteous and helpful, resolving their issue quickly and efficiently.
autotask has a sales team that can work with you to understand your specific business scenario. They have offered to scope an integration project with us. We are looking forward to making progress on a tailored solution with them
Verizon Connect Reveal seemed to have all the services rolled into one nice package, and a reasonable price. If everything worked 95% percent of the time, it would work exactly as we needed. We were looking for fleet tracking, vehicle maintenance scheduling, vehicle tracking, driver safety tracking with AI alerts (smoking, distraction, tailgating, etc.), geofencing, and tracking for our non-powered assets (heavy equipment), all with an online and mobile interface. This system would hit all those marks and more - IF it worked... In my experience, the problem is it only works part of the time. In my experience, trackers will go days and weeks with no updates, the camera systems will go offline on a weekly basis (in order to reset, you have to take 2x screws out of the camera, remove from the windshield dock, let it discharge for 30 minutes, and then re-install...) and our non-powered asset trackers are going weeks on end with no reporting... The exact opposite of what is needed from this system.
End to end food safety - We are now able to see the storage temperature of food products from our production facility, to transit, to remote locations.
Vehicle visibility - Verizon Connect allows us to see if any of our vehicles has gone off course or stopped unexpectedly, which increases employee safety.
