The Work Management Field Service Dispatch software allows businesses to eliminate the use of phone calls, paper notepads, sms, emails, Outlook calendars & whatsapp in the field as well as eliminating whiteboard scheduling in the office.
Apart from the obvious advantages in streamlining daily business processes, the software and apps allow managers to have easy to access historical data on field service activity which may include day time records, photos, signatures, forms, parts used, quotes, invoices and more. All data recorded in the office and in the field is at your fingertips and easily retrieved for audit and transparency purposes.
