the switch feature and easy of use for the field employees, who are not all tech savvy, is why we chose busy busy. Other softwares only used a stop/go feature which we thought could be very confusing for employees who are just switching cost codes between jobs. Also …

Chose Skedulo
We actually use Skedulo as our only dispatching appointment program. Salesforce is not like Skedulo, but we use them together daily to ensure on-time specimen draws, delivery, and payout for all visits completed. Skedulo is very easy to interface with other programs.
Chose Skedulo
Skedulo was at a lower cost tier and a better partner for our organization from an agility and culture perspective. We have been able to grow and innovate alongside Skedulo
Chose Skedulo
We used 2-3 systems before finding Skedulo, and it works excellent! The staff at Skedulo listens to what we need and works on updates constantly making it a more efficient tool.

Skedulo works well to visualize capacity. It also works well to assist with the planning of routes and distribution of work. It works well for the field resources and provides the key information about their jobs and enables alerts to be provided to customers. The automated Optimization & Scheduling engine is still maturing. Skedulo also does a good job satisfying the customer's unique requirements and has a solid in-house development team looking to continually improve the platform.

Cons
  • the scheduling feature has room for improvement - the views are not condensed and cannot be viewed by all employee groups
