Likelihood to Recommend ClickMobile can be implemented in virtually any organization that has a need for a Mobile Workforce Management system. The only real limitations or concerns will be with the backend hardware architecture. Sectors that have really seen the best utilization of the software are ones that have a dynamic service schedule and need to be extremely flexible with their customers service needs. In a day where customer service is so important to an organizations ability to remain the market leader it is extremely important for an organization to consider implementing a mobile solution. For organizations that already have a mobile management solution in place it is critical that they continuously reevaluate the system in order to remain competitive in their market and drive down operational costs. Change can be difficult for many organizations and the buy-in from the Field resources, who will ultimately be utilizing the mobile solution on a daily basis, will be critical when implementing something like ClickMobile. If the field resources are not able to accept a change to process then Change Management needs to take place during the implementation. It is generally a good rule to begin Change Management at the beginning of any large project, such as one where a mobile solution is being introduced.
Read full review It is well suited for medium to large companies that manage different teams and need to communicate constantly and track progress in a timely manner. It is less suited for small enterprises as it will overwhelm users with the features and functionalities embedded.
Read full review Pros Great dispatcher service which helps the Field Service managers Great view of the availability of the technicians Ability to track real time any updates about the service appointment Read full review Allows for clear communication between help desk and end users. Provides a clean inventory option for both hardware items and software licenses. Navigation is very intuitive and user friendly. Many reporting features for all levels of the company. Read full review Cons Click has a long way to go to improve functionality of its current features. It is buggy and slow, and does not sync correctly with scheduling. Mobile users can only see one day at a time, making point-of-care scheduling cumbersome. Tech support is only provided to end users by email. Read full review Adding in additional chat features would be nice Viewing where you stand in priority Having a way to automate more of the processes Read full review Likelihood to Renew ClickSoftware is still being used. As far as I can tell it will be used tomorrow as well. Once you make the commitment to run with that as your scheduling engine, it would take a lot of effort to evaluate and implement another companies' solution without significant disruption to your service organization.
Read full review Usability Bottom line is that it does what you need it to do. We've been using Service Now as a ticket managing tool for a few years now. There's really not much it can't do when it comes to recording interactions. It has been nice using inventory tracking for software licenses and hardware as well.
Read full review Support Rating We had to contact support a number of times related to bugs that our admin/dev teams were not able to troubleshoot. Unfortunately the Salesforce support was not super helpful, asking us to perform steps that we already completed and included in the original support ticket. Then the problems couldn't be reproduced so ultimately the tickets got closed without resolution. LWC support in the mobile app is severely lacking.
Read full review Support has been very good. Any time there has been a real issue, the team has responded very quickly and identified the issue without a lot of repetitive questions that I've seen from other services. There is a great external community and internal knowledge base that covers pretty much anything you need.
Read full review Online Training Overall the training was quite informative but did lack detail in some areas. It had all of the necessary content for an experience product user but didn't offer enough information for a new user to complete the training and then feel comfortable in real-world situations running or managing the software. I would recommend this course for anyone with at least 1 year of full-time exposure to the ClickSchedule product.
Read full review Alternatives Considered I know of IFS but I do not think it is a worthy or close competitor to Salesforce Field Service lightning as its not that user friendly yet with a complicated interface. Also it does not have the name and respect and brand value that Salesforce commands in the market thereby making it easier for Business to approve.
Read full review Connectwise targets small to medium enterprises and kept things simple for cross-organizational communications. On the other hand, ServiceNow with users with more than 500 at least, tends to create lag and tension when all are using the app at the same time, especially getting reports in a timely manner.
Read full review Return on Investment Field nurses are spending 4-5 (paid) hours a week trying to troubleshoot this software. Read full review The negative impact for my team is the delay in team completing tickets but not a system issue. A positive impact for my team is we can easily view the status of tickets and the follow-up emails are beneficial to maintain records of tickets. Negative impact is that there is no user job aid or helpful tools for new users. Read full review ScreenShots Salesforce Field Service Screenshots
