HouseCall Pro vs. imeetify vs. Kickserv

[HouseCall Pro] would be great for service techs and smaller companies but is tough for companies that do multiple types of jobs, [do] not sync well with QBO for us, and creates an accounting mess. Also does not do job costing so hard to actually keep track of jobs

It is well suited for external meeting set up where different calendars can easily be synced up making it easy for the clients as well to attend meetings The problem is with the external API that it does not support especially with different collaboration soft wares. Can be better with different operation systems.

We use KickServ for nearly every aspect of our operation and cannot think of a scenario when it is "inappropriate" or "less appropriate". It is the backbone of our operation and is used for everything from data gathering to estimates to invoices to payments and accounts receivables to reports to tracking to storage of photos and past invoices. Better searching abilities would be good instead of having to create tags for things we don't know we are going to need later.

• Organization - keeps everything organized nicely and has several different filters that you can use to view only the information you need.
• Simple website - this was important because you want it to load quickly when you are in the office and on the road.
• Database - keeps track of the things that you enter. This is nice when trying to get information on a product or a price when requested by the customer.

It's perfect for our company. We rely on it. Tech support is great. We're very happy.

It is intuitive enough, but there is some training that will be necessary because of a perceived redundancy within their workflow. It can be hard to distinguish which stage a customer is in (thus what the most important thing to be working on, if you are in sales, for instance) without some training.

Very good technical help. The team is well-versed in their product and what to look for, particularly when interacting with other software platforms. You nearly always get a live person when you call, and if you don't, they will return your call promptly. This is another factor in my client's decision to move forward with their solution.

Much easier to use.

imeetify is easy to use and user-friendly. The interface is super cool and attracts users. Saves a lot of time, less adoption required, easy to sync with all calendars, easy to renew, less confusing. more time saving, and more focus on productivity rather than on operational stuff. The menu is simple and easy to navigate.

Incentivized

Easier to use than Salesforce. More robust than Zoho. More functionality that is easier to learn than both.

• Negative is time lost fixing books.
• Negative is having to use multiple programs to fulfill needs so it takes 2x as long.
• [The] positive is that it is very user-friendly so our team has picked it up easily and techs save time in the field.

Incentivized

• Time saving and made KPI achievable easy.
• Less coordination
• Feasibility

Incentivized

• We are essentially paper free. No paper work orders.
• We've been able to avoid a layer of middle management by supplementing this layer with technology. KickServ is a part of that layer.
• Negatively speaking, like all technology, it has created a void of human level connection. Because we know that we can deliver work orders to our foremen remotely, we are less likely to drive up to the shop and shake a hand or see someone face to face. We had to learn that lesson the hard way, that both technology and human connection are necessary to maintain our culture.
