DeskTime vs. ServiceTitan

When we made the decision to go cloud based and send our employees home to work remotely we needed something that would help us and them manage their time and keep everyone on track. Desktime makes the team more aware of how they are spending their time both individually and as a team. It allows them to see and track what makes them most productive and what times of the day they are most engaged. Keeps projects on track.

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.

• Personal time management
• Customer Service
• Easy to use UI

• 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.

Incentivized

• App resources usage - it's lagging sometimes

Incentivized

• 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.

Desktime is the first time management software I have used.

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

• Increased awareness of own time management
• Better understanding of ticket time predictions vs reality
• Easier observation of team's out of office status

Incentivized

• We can more effectively retain customers and send them offers if it's been a while since their last visit.
• Our cash flow has dramatically improved because now the technicians invoice everything.
• We can get estimates out the door within the hour, not days later.
