Pointman overview

What is Pointman?

Pointman (formerly Field Nimble) is a mobile field service management system that offers small residential contractors a single and centralized platform from which to manage field service operations. Incorporating features such as smart scheduling, real-time dispatching, aesthetic proposals and quotes as well as effective work orders and invoicing, Pointman aims to provide HVAC, plumbing and electrical contractors with a powerful yet simple field service management solution.

Pointman enables users to manage customers by recording and tracking all customer information and contact details. With fully searchable custom fields and tags alongside on-site photo capture ability, Pointman allows users to create and track customer profiles and properties easily. Besides customer management, Pointman equips users with the tools to manage employees with on-boarding and grouping tools. Users can also track employee locations and status in real time as well as record time punches from the field. Pointman facilitates scheduling and dispatch services with an intelligent job dashboard and calendar, real-time mapping and automatic task list creator for unscheduled work or unassigned work.

With Pointman, users can also manage proposals, work orders, invoices and payments. Pointman’s unique proposal system allows users to create and customize proposal templates, capture electronic signatures and track rejected proposals. On proposal approval, Pointman can generate electronic work orders and customizable invoices quickly and accurately. To streamline the payment process, Pointman enables users to capture credit cards and process checks on-site in real time.
