Equips vs. Salesforce Agentforce Field Service

Equips is great to handle multiple units at different locations and maintain stats. As for managing 3rd party vendors, Equips still puts some of the responsibility on me to respond to 3rd party invoices. This was well Managed when I first stared with Equips over 3 years ago. As of lately, this seems to be slacking on a bigger scale. Almost every time I make a service call for our color copiers, I later receive an invoice from the vendor, and an invoice-reminder from the vendor. This is currently an ongoing issue which concerns me about adding any more units in the future.

We've demoed quite a few models, different companies. I know Salesforce has huge backing, but even so they're open to customization and solutions. Some of the competition, keep in mind for my industry, there's not a lot of options out there. We're not your typical Salesforce target market. I mean we're not really selling a lot. I mean, quite honestly, I don't even have a sales department because can't do all of the work that my current customers need me to do. So I don't need to go drum up new business. I just needed it for more of tracking and a work management solution. And in the construction, specifically utility construction, industry, there's not a lot of options, but it definitely was the best option for us.

• I still get invoices from the 3rd party vendor. Equips has inconsistent directions on how to handle this.

• Our biggest complaint is the optimizer removes jobs from the schedule at times and they are hard to track down and if missed we may not have a tech show up at all for the customer.
• Reporting off of Service Appointment history is challenging
• Without having a developer adjust your views the amount of available fields can be overwhelming.

As of right now there is not a alternative that seems to offer all of the functionality with a vision of what is needed in the future. It is my belief that ClickSoftware will remain a leader in Mobile Workforce Management for a long time.

Within a week a scheduler can confidently navigate the program and from there they learn more niche tools but from the beginning they can hit the ground running. With different user views available the developers can narrow down what is needed based on your job role which has been invaluable.

Having a program that gives sales leaders a real time view was game changing. Time was always an issue because there wasn't always a sales leader available for closing sales. This has allowed for any sales leader to jump in and help make the sale without the need to do a warm transfer.

Overall the training was quite informative but did lack detail in some areas. It had all of the necessary content for an experience product user but didn't offer enough information for a new user to complete the training and then feel comfortable in real-world situations running or managing the software. I would recommend this course for anyone with at least 1 year of full-time exposure to the ClickSchedule product.

Equips is more affordable in comparison and we still get to use Ricoh through them.

I have added a few of the many Salesforce products we use. We also use HubSpot but they all have different functions so not really comparable as they are used for different things/ teams.
