Salesforce Field Service vs. WorkWave PestPac

Salesforce Field Service is a powerful and feature-rich solution for managing field service operations. With AI-driven scheduling, seamless mobile access for technicians, and deep integration with the Salesforce ecosystem, it helps businesses enhance efficiency, improve customer satisfaction, and optimize service delivery. While it may be costly and complex to implement, its scalability and ability to grow with your business make it a worthwhile investment for many organizations.

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.

• Real Time Communication with back-office team When our nurses need anything by using mobile app they can reach out to our back office team to resolve their issues
• Utilization of resources We can see the all the appointments view with the assigned representative in a single page so We can assign more appointments if any resources has any free slot it is just a drag and drop
• It helps us to automate the process like delay or reach notification we can also route the appointments based on representative skill set, location and urgency of task

• 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

• At times updates from may take a while to come back to the main database. This is generallly because of a loss of internet connectivity due to poor data coverage from cell towers or Wi-Fi networks.
• Organizational IT policies of network architecture/DMZ/Firewalls may add to the challenges of deploying ClickMobile outside of the organization domain, thus allowing field resources the ability to access relevant work order data without connecting the company network via VPN. This can usually be overcome with quality solution design and implementation.

• 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

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.

Having a program that gives sales leaders a real time view was game changing. Time was always an issue because there wasn't always a sales leader available for closing sales. This has allowed for any sales leader to jump in and help make the sale without the need to do a warm transfer.

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.

I have added a few of the many Salesforce products we use. We also use HubSpot but they all have different functions so not really comparable as they are used for different things/ teams.

• 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
