Field service management software. Live support. Free trial.
4.47/5 (49 reviews)Synchroteam has designed its scheduling screens to make it easy for front desk personnel to quickly assign technicians to new jobs based on their real-time availability, professional competencies, and optimized efficiency. Technicians have the option to examine their daily schedules in detail from their mobile phones, as well.
Use Synchroteam’s unique ScheduleAssist tool to optimize the way your team schedules incoming jobs. ScheduleAssist analyzes existing schedules and suggests the best time for new jobs based on factors like location (travel distance) and the skill of the technician. Synchroteam also offers a way for workers to subscribe to live calendar feeds to get scheduling updates at all times.
Keeping up with field service workers is no easy task. Synchroteam has found a way to minimize the complexity through geolocation with GPS tracking. When emergencies occur, in-office personnel can pinpoint the location of field service workers and send technicians who are already in the area. It even integrates live traffic information into its maps, showing any traffic conditions that could delay a technician as he or she drives to the jobsite.
Synchroteam’s mapping technology shows the real-time location of technicians as they move about the city. Turn on the “To Schedule” overlay, and you can schedule jobs directly from the map. You’ll be able to see how far each technician is from the next job site, adjusted automatically based on actual traffic conditions.
Organization is everything for organizations with mobile workers. Synchroteam keeps jobs and records organized by filing them into virtual buckets based on the current status. Users can view today’s jobs, late jobs, upcoming jobs, recurring jobs, and jobs that still need to be scheduled. They can also search listings and launch tasks from each record.
Use Synchroteam’s job counter to get details on any late jobs or upcoming jobs. You can find out why a job is delayed and resolve whatever issues are preventing it from being scheduled. Customer portals are also an effective way to give customers insights into their accounts, with reports and job histories that can be shared online in a secure, read-only format.
Detailed reports are a key component to any organized workspace. Synchroteam has made job reports a key feature, with the ability for users to tailor reports based on their own unique needs and specifications. Photos and signatures can be added to reports in the field.
Generate new job reports based on the type of job or the customer whose jobs you’re referencing. You can structure the job process, select field types, specify conditions, and define private fields within your reports. Reports are completely compatible with mobile, allowing you to define certain parameters and prevent jobs from being completed until all necessary information has been collected for the report.

Thanks for submitting a review, and for mentioning that Synchroteam is great for small-medium businesses. We built Synchroteam with computer repair business like Etron Solutions in mind!
Have you seen the new support article we posted about time tracking (https://www.synchroteam.com/blog/2018/03/08/time-tracking-new-module-synchroteam/) We think you'll like it!
Also, we have an affiliate program, if you¿d like to refer your customers or partners. (https://www.synchroteam.com/affiliates.php)
Thanks again for the great feedback!
We used to make maintenance reports by sending emails to a unique account, but it was so unpractical to followup, so moving to Synchroteam was a big improvement, but there are still a few things that could be better.
Pros
This software really help us to centralize all the maintenance reports in one single place and makes the management and technicians jobs easier.
Cons
I don't like the fact that we have issues with the android app in some phones, we also had several issues that lasted a couple of days, so the support was not that fast, also you cannot have users with multiple roles, only technicians can use the mobile app, the kpis reporting is very limited, and it doesn't have a real time gps tracking of the techs driving routes.

Synchroteam was a top contender for our business, but we ultimately went another direction. The price is right for a smaller field service business, and most of what you need is there.
Pros
Many of the core features are extremely helpful for a field service company. Inventory tracking, scheduling, work order management, invoicing, and a field-ready app that help you and your techs stay organized
Cons
Also, the mobile app is very limited and doesn’t give techs many options to edit or make changes.

We have 3 techs in the field doing different job services, this allows me to track customers, log call information, schedule and track all services provided and organize service reports & pictures.
Pros
The custom field reporting is the best feature, it allows me to build reports specific to certain types of jobs and make it pretty easy for my service techs to log the actions and services they completed on each job.
Cons
The mobile app is great for field techs, but there is no mobile admin capability.

My Department is totally paperless now! .All our job orders, documentation outbounds and inbounds are in actual time, making us flexible and efficient. This reduces customer assets downtime and decreases the MTTR. Dont work more...Work smart.
Pros
- Simplicity - Functionality - Continuous development - Amazing price! - Self-serving platform I investigated 90% of the market on this type of software and Synchrotem is the best at keeping my department running efficiently and paperless.
Cons
I will add some Asset management features like: - Recording meters readings - Set up alarms with this readings - Save under sites the old report on all the mobile engineers' tablets soon these been "validated" on the back office. - At the moment I can create Customer job report, will be great have one job report for the Customer and another for internal usage where all the information can be seen.

Price was the winning factor to why I started using this product. The sales team did a good job of presenting the potential of the product but a poor job of explaining the shortcomings that would become discovered in my first month of using it. Overall I'm not terribly happy with the investment and I won't be using it long-term. Unsure what I will move to going forward.
Pros
It's quite customizable, so if the features are useful the level to which you can get with the tools such as reports can be quite the positive experience.
Cons
I've run into some glitches/issues when setting up reports that don't function as intended. The workflow for setting up very dynamic reports is terrible.

There are a lot of features making this an excellent tool for a field service company to schedule, invoice, estimate, and keep track of inventory all in one platform.
Cons
After we started to sync our customer database in we noticed everything was entirely wrong. While it does sync with Zoho CRM, it doesn't allow us to field map at all. None of our customers synced properly, and it would've forced us to change the way we work and organize our information to work around the software. That really defeats the purpose. If they improved their native syncing to include field mapping I think it'd be a 100% better.
