    Mhelpdesk is perfect for smaller companies and mid-sized companies I would say. Larger companies may need something a little more advanced for lack of better words or able to handle thousands upon thousands of constant work orders, etc. Smaller companies or companies that are mid-size would benefit from this program the most as it provides the necessary programming to succeed along with its ease of use.

    Microsoft Dynamics 365 Field Service is [...] one of the best tools when it comes to delivering on-site service to customer locations. Organizations can follow [a] proactive and predictive service model by using Connected Field Service, [which] provides capabilities to connect to IoT devices and to remotely diagnose, monitor, and service the devices by integrating with Microsoft Azure IoT Hub and using Microsoft Azure IoT Hub PaaS offering.

    Cons
    Mhelpdesk
    • mHelpDesk lacks in its expansion ability of multiple administrator types. We have executive level, midlevel, and department level administrators in addition to the tech, managers, etc. working directly with the system. It seems we are always about one admin level shy of what we need and are unable to create it.
    • mHelpDesk sometimes has difficulty with its mobile tracking either being accurate as seen by the administrators or in locking up the mobile devices of the techs. It is not a constant issue yet one which occurs often enough to be of note.
    • mHelpDesk doesn't track automatically so our mobile techs can shut that off. While that may be a disciplinary operational issue for us as well, we should be able to lock that setting "on" so our users are tracked which using the app.

    • Being a part of Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement Apps and as it uses Power Platform, to fully leverage all the features and understand its capabilities, one has to know those related products and technologies also.
    • Field Service Mobile support is ending in June 2022, and transitioning to the new Field Service (Dynamics 365) [so that] is something the existing customers would have to plan [for].

    When we first started using Mhelpdesk, RepairShopr was just a blip on our radar and didn't have the feature-set that Mhelpdesk did. RepairShopr looked great, but the Mhelpdesk had a lot more features. Every 6 months or so, I'd check on RepairShopr and it was growing fast and adding new features all the time. After a few years - the difference was night and day so we switched to RepairShopr and it's been a much better fit for our business.
