Dubsado vs. ServiceTitan

If you are a small service-based business owner looking for a CRM to automate your customer journey then this is for you. This platform is very customizable and can be really powerful once you set it up fully. This is like putting puzzle pieces together. First you need to setup all the pieces like scheduler, lead capture form, proposal, packages, invoices, contract and then setup the workflow automation. It will be helpful if you map your process in a mind-mapping tool first so it’s easy to see on high level what you need accomplished. This platform is not suitable for big companies or SaaS industry because the tagging system is not robust.

LIES! LIES! LIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Service Titian caused us so much grief and our company thousand's of dollars. They promised us they work well with our Quickbooks program. LIES! The amount of hours we spent on the phone with them, they should be paying me! All the issues that came about, they didn't even know how to fix themselves. We had to wait days for them to come up with solutions and call us back. So many batch's we transferred over to Quickbooks the amounts were completely wrong, doubled our transactions, or put into the wrong place. As you can see with other reviews the managed tech's price is outrageous. As well as the time cards, we always had errors we had to fix with that as well. DO NOT USE SERVICE TITIAN, IT WILL MAKE YOUR JOB 1000X HARDER!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAY TOO COMPLICATED THEN IT NEEDS TO BE AND HALF THE EMPLOYEES DON'T KNOW HOW TO HELP YOU.

• Invoicing & expense reporting all in one place! I don't have to spend hours poring over my bank account transactions to find my biz expenses anymore!
• The built-in call scheduler is awesome! I can create various appointment schedulers with multiple availabilities, and collect payments right up front, too!
• Dubsado also has a sweet Client Portal where my clients can login and see all their activity with me at a glance.

• 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

• the task list feature is very basic
• the UI is a little clunky
• more integrations with other software such as Clickup

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.

There are some similar programs out there that are offering ambassador accounts.

There is a learning curve to Dubsado, however, you can create a basic setup easily using the training videos provided by the platform

The support with Dubsado is outstanding! Always so helpful, prompt to answer and always understands the issue. It always feels like I have talking to an actual person behind the scenes

Dubsado is more customizable and with robust features. Also, the user interface is visually pleasing but definitely has steep learning curve. Once you get the hang of it, it’s very easy especially with other developers helping users create beautiful form, proposals with ease without needing to know how to code. HoneyBook is not available for people outside USA & Canada. I haven’t used 17hats for a very long time but the user interface is pretty much the same

No comparisons. Everyone tries to emulate Service Titan. Service Titan has had the best support. Service Titan also seems like they have a better development team to build out their product and listen to client feedback. Where that's helpful is that they're constantly pushing the envelope of what's possible with enhancing client experience and streamlining operations for a business owner.
