We utilize Skedulo for appointment scheduling with our phlebotomists to perform specimen draws for medical research.
  • Scheduling appointments
  • Uploading documents/imaging
  • Provides enough tabs to get all the information to our phlebotomists
  • It would be nice to have a way to communicate directly through the app. Like a live chat option open from us to our phlebotomist Skedulo users.
Skedulo fits our needs for scheduling and uploading documentation for our medical research studies. Our phlebotomists are able to accept and decline jobs based on their availability and are able to give a decline reason. This is invaluable to us as time is important, and getting these appointments scheduled is imperative.
  • Dispatching jobs/appointments
  • Uploading images
  • Skedulo has had a positive impact on our overall business objectives as this is the only application that we have to organize and keep our jobs scheduled and within our guidelines.
We actually use Skedulo as our only dispatching appointment program. Salesforce is not like Skedulo, but we use them together daily to ensure on-time specimen draws, delivery, and payout for all visits completed. Skedulo is very easy to interface with other programs.

We use Skedulo to schedule and route plan our valuation jobs. We integrate jobs from our jobs & workflow management system and then use Skedulo to plan and optimize both work plans and routes for our valuers.
  • Friendly UI
  • Continuous Product Development
  • Open Source APIs
  • Optimization Engine for Scheduling
  • Sparse Implementation Technical & Solution Experts
  • Project Planning when third party systems & vendors are involved
Skedulo works well to visualize capacity. It also works well to assist with the planning of routes and distribution of work. It works well for the field resources and provides the key information about their jobs and enables alerts to be provided to customers. The automated Optimization & Scheduling engine is still maturing. Skedulo also does a good job satisfying the customer's unique requirements and has a solid in-house development team looking to continually improve the platform.
  • Scheduling
  • Optimization
  • Route Planning
  • Enabled Self Serve Booking capability
  • Lengthy implementation window due to high degree of change management
  • FTE efficiencies not yet fully realized; assumed higher levels of automation
  • Enable customer innovation and new Self Serve booking capability
  • Salesforce Field Service (Click Field Service Edge)
Skedulo was at a lower cost tier and a better partner for our organization from an agility and culture perspective. We have been able to grow and innovate alongside Skedulo

We set schedules for our sales consultants.
  • Sets mileage boundaries
  • Sets product ability
  • Selects the closest consultants with the right product knowledge
  • Eliminates human scheduling errors
  • Occasionally it will not locate an available consultant because they put their block in on top of a previous appointment -- overlapping causes issues
  • Fix it so the human errors of us inputting blocks is not so "perfect"
Because of how quick Skedulo picks resources for jobs, it has helped us eliminate at least one extra body.
  • Eliminated at least one customer service representative.... saving a salary
  • Better customer service because the calls are shorter.
We used 2-3 systems before finding Skedulo, and it works excellent! The staff at Skedulo listens to what we need and works on updates constantly making it a more efficient tool.
