Pros

“Help desk is effective for understanding and simple tasks or glitches you find, unless you actually work in the field that they specialize in-- when it comes to dialing in trade service companies it operates less than ideally.”
AB

Amy B.

Financial Officer

“Provided quality tracking across (too many) metrics.”
AB

Amy B.

Financial Officer

“Smart Service used with iFleet has allowed me to streamline customer management, scheduling, and estimating repairs.”
EA

Eron A.

ceo

Pros

“That could have been a lot better. If you search up something you should have been able to tick witch items to add so you don't need to search up 10 times for the same thing to add 10 similar items.”
PW

Patrick W.

Director

“I was amazed that the client hub did not crash when one of the clients made a payment for a $49 Virtual Quote today.”
SL

Saul L.

Co-Chief Executive Officer

“There is a place to keep notes, photos and files.”
JD

Jennifer D.

Business Office Manager

Cons

“We opted to build our own software and recently reached out to requested historical data and they said it would take a week and we would have to resign (again, more money).”
AB

Amy B.

Financial Officer

“Potential for time tracking errors and discrepancies.”
DN

Debbie N.

Manager

“The technicians tables never synced properly and there was constantly missing data. ”
CS

Connor S.

Owner

Cons

“The snow routing is completely unworkable at 1am when I just need the guys to have a simple list of tasks to complete and not some type of route optimization.”
SL

Saul L.

Co-Chief Executive Officer

“We report this anyone fix this error, we waiting for 3 days and nothing.”
