Mhelpdesk vs. WorkWave PestPac

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.

If all of your data is entered 100% correctly (per WorkWave PestPac standards) and you only need basic functionality, then WorkWave PestPac is great. The more functionality you need, the more they charge (EVERY module is an additional per-user cost, which can get very expensive very quickly). If you are bringing your data from another system, then be prepared to have heartburn (or hire someone to go through and fix all the data). If data is not 100% accurate, then many features don't work as smoothly as you'd like.

• The timer to track the technicians time is wonderful.
• Integrates well with QuickBooks.
• The mobile app is great.

• Easy to search for a customer by many different data points
• Has a lot of customization features, such as naming service types and preset notes

• 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.

Incentivized

• Not very user friendly
• Reports are difficult to create and figure out
• Not easy to find the correct place to go for things such as settings or data points

The staff at Mhelpdesk have been incredible. They are consistently adding new features and are willing to work with us to meet our company's needs

It works well for most of what we need. It integrates well w/ quickbooks. We would like to see it integrate w/ outlook.

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.

• It has overall been positive

• WorkWave PestPac has certainly improved our time management by getting us off of paper scheduling. It allows us to map and easily move appointments which makes our techs more efficient
• Having all documentation stored digitally and be locked to the correct account helps us stay compliant
