    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.

    This is best suited when there is territory management at the field or rep level. One can easily distribute the area/ locality, balance revenue, and optimize sales/outcome. However, this may be less appropriate for organizations that operate entirely on remote sales or for those where geographic location does not matter.

    Pros
    Kickserv
    • 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.

    Cons
    Kickserv
    • Integration with email marketing
    • Advanced searching capabilities (i.e. If I wanted to search for every job I did that had the words "water damage" in their descriptions).
    • More ability to customize templates (like adding additional artwork, pictures)

    • They just restructured their pricing model and we are ending our contract because of it - you have to pay for 10 users.
    • The crossover with accounts and contacts are hard to map.
    • The window sizes when navigating the maps are difficult to work with.

    Usability
    Kickserv
    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.

    It aligns well with business needs. We clearly get productivity gain, and its seamless integration with Salesforce makes things easier. The ability to visualize things and performance geographically helps us to make better decisions. It also saves us lots of time and effort and increases efficiency.

    Support Rating
    Kickserv
    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.

    Support was comical. It was barely available and the few times I did get help the language barrier was extraordinarily problematic

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

    Allows for many more contacts to be loaded into the map.

    Return on Investment
    Kickserv
    • 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.

    • For the first time, we were able to see donors on a map which was life-changing.
    • Its allowed us to target donors on trips and other email campaigns when we haven’t been able to before.
