IFS company WorkWave offers PestPac, a pest control business management solution, available to support smaller and enterprise level (PestPac Select) solutions, boasting an integratable payment solution (WorkWave Payments), and integrated marketing (WorkWave Marketing).
ServiceTitan seems to be incredibly customizable depending on what is needed, and therefore I would recommend it in any case where customers and jobs are recorded and scheduled. It can be used in a variety of ways and has multiple functions, including revenue and inventory tracking. Whether a big or small company, I feel with proper training anyone could utilize ServiceTitan very effectively to improve both productivity and record-keeping.
For any route heavy organization, PestPac is a great choice due to the route optimization. It is great for businesses that are moving more online and into the digital space. For smaller organizations, you can make PestPac work but the complexity and training would be a barrier to entry. PestPac does more modular pricing so the cost can be affordable if you aren't needing many of the add-on features, but things can add up quick if looking to incorporate basic service functions when it comes to customer service.
Real-time tracking. The biggest problem in logistics in, my opinion, is knowing if your products are arriving on time or not especially as it pertains to food, that was huge here.
Most of our managers travel constantly from corporate to distribution because of how centralized the company is they needed something flexible that allowed them to run reports whenever and however.
Ease of use - I'll be honest in that our employees are not the cream of the crop as it pertains to their education, this software made the learning process simple.
We'd like to be able to text estimates (currently, email is the only function)
We'd like to have audit trails on Customer and Location records (currently only at the job level)
We'd like to be able to email/text the customer multiple options within estimates, like the techs can do on their tablet, it's just not a function that can be presented by the office.
I rarely run into any issues while using ServiceTitan other than the occasional scheduled maintenance. It is very intuitive and easy to learn, with many capabilities that can be suited to any job position in a business. The functions are consistent regardless of your department or use case, and can be easily customized to fit any and all of a company's needs.
Due to the customizability of the software, the usability is not the easiest to pick up and especially train on. We find that office staff take the longest to train due to the steeper learning curve. It is not a plug and play and every company uses PestPac a little differently so sometimes it can be difficult to get support because what works for one organization may not work for another due to how they set up and use PestPac internally
autotask has a sales team that can work with you to understand your specific business scenario. They have offered to scope an integration project with us. We are looking forward to making progress on a tailored solution with them
Ultimately we went with PestPac due to the reporting but also at the time other softwares had limits to API integration and that was something that was important to us with our business model. The route optimization tool in PestPac was also far better than anything else we had seen out there
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
