    RemoteView is a technical customer success expert's dream. It allows us to remotely view, gain access, and control/modify a device that we do not have physical access to. On customer calls, we are able to log into the customers' Google admin console and help correct some issues on the client side, which leads to higher customer satisfaction when working with our company. RemoteView removes the necessity to be on-site with the user and their device and greatly increases our output.

    Small deployments, where you have some specific need for ServiceMax and absolutely need offline capabilities, and are willing to deal with the problems. Otherwise, you may be better off looking at the built-in Work Orders and field service module that Salesforce is now providing. Their app is direct competition for ServiceMax and integrates much better with cases and knowledge articles.

    ServiceMax
    • Dispatch console seems slow and the data is more of a pull than a push into the database.
    • It seems to be a Ferrari and takes a lot of labor hours to configure.
    • Still does not integrate with Apple's products very well.

    TeamViewer had issues in the past with latency, and for that reason, we switched over to RemoteView. It seems quite clear now that RemoteView has the strongest feature set in this space, and has greatly corrected the latency issues. I am not sure if TeamViewer is still used today, but we are very happy with the feature set that RemoteView offers our company. We are able to improve our ROI based on the features we get from this software.

    ServiceMax has an offline capability, and also integrates with our Salesforce side of business. At the time, Salesforce did not have a field service application so we could not consider it, but if we could now, we would probably go with that instead. ServiceMax is also expensive. But at the time, ServiceMax was the only offering out there that integrated with Salesforce, had mobile offline capability, and could operate at the scale we needed.

    ServiceMax
    • ROI for ServiceMax is mostly dependent on how in depth the organization wants the software. Our ROI is expected within the second year of operation due to the complexity of integration and the initial training requirements for in-house programmers.
    • Inventory control ROI is expected within year three or four due to the number of technicians and creating the foundation of information to import into ServiceMax. Expectations are the front end programming will be complete and our programmers will be better acquainted with the modules and architecture to make the inventory integration smoother than the initial integration.
    • Our organization has been working with ServiceMax for ten months and beginning to incorporate the financials to the work orders. This process has not been as seamless as once projected and the root causes are under investigation. It appears the original fields available to track time between employees were not in depth nor segregated sufficiently for granularity.
