We have 3 techs in the field doing different job services, this allows me to track customers, log call information, schedule and track all services provided and organize service reports & pictures.
Pros
The custom field reporting is the best feature, it allows me to build reports specific to certain types of jobs and make it pretty easy for my service techs to log the actions and services they completed on each job.
Cons
The mobile app is great for field techs, but there is no mobile admin capability. We are a small service company and i am the admin, but i also am a tech on occasion, and i have to schedule jobs for my tech user and login to the mobile app as the same, but it is pretty difficult to complete admin tasks from the mobile app. I can schedule calls for myself, but i am usually needing to schedule calls for one of our techs.

It's a young product and so there are still a few things that could be refined, and we haven't really felt able to use the inventory module yet, but this doesn't detract from the great benefits gained from using Synchroteam

Pros
Synchroteam is extremely user friendly. It's easy to set up and edit templates to fit our business. We've been using this software for a little over a year now and it has helped remove multiple steps from the time the customer calls in, getting the information to the technician, and then getting the jobs billed out to the customer. I'm extremely pleased with how much more organized our business is now. Customer service is great too, they are always able to answer questions in an acceptable amount of time.
Cons
We have a couple guys who enter in the service jobs, but also will go out into the field and complete these jobs. They each have to have a separate user account and are therefor charged per account. It is an inconvenience to not be able to do both under the same user account. Hopefully this will become an option in the future. Still a great product, don't let that stop you from giving it a try.
Thank you Jamie for reviewing Synchroteam¿s field service management software. We are pleased to know the South Central Irrigation team has found our software easy to use, customizable to your needs, and more efficient! We are glad our customer service team has been able to provide assistance when needed, and will add your request for consolidating accounts for service reps in office and on the road to our potential features list.

Pros

- Amazing price!
- Self-serving platform
I investigated 90% of the market on this type of software and Synchrotem is the best at keeping my department running efficiently and paperless.
Cons
I will add some Asset management features like:

- Save under sites the old report on all the mobile engineers' tablets soon these been "validated" on the back office.
- At the moment I can create Customer job report, will be great have one job report for the Customer and another for internal usage where all the information can be seen.

Preventative maintenance isn’t just for large machinery. Mobile workforces run at optimum capacity when they’re well maintained and potential logjams are spotted before they push a system into chaos. Synchroteam is a cloud-based field service management solution that optimizes costs and streamlines tasks like dispatching, scheduling, and reporting for mobile workforces. Synchroteam acts as a mobile command center, giving field service technicians the tools they need to work quickly and communicate with their teams back in the office in real-time.
A complete solution for businesses that require interaction with mobile staff, Synchroteam has customers with anywhere from five to 2,000+ employees. The multi-lingual platform saves its users time on paperwork, it ensures field workers never miss appointments, and it helps growing organizations take on more jobs with less effort. Key features include scheduling and dispatching, job reporting, and the ability to effectively manage field workers.
A cloud-based field service management solution, Synchroteam optimizes costs, dispatching, scheduling and reporting for businesses with mobile workforces. The solution is most frequently used by businesses in the energy, maintenance, medical, telecoms, security, and HVAC industries.
Technicians, inspectors, investigators, and other service-oriented employees can all use Synchroteam to stay in sync with their offices while they’re out on the road. Smart scheduling and dispatching tools give users a way to examine their daily schedules and make dynamic changes based on events happening in real-time. A unique scheduling wizard analyzes existing schedules and suggests the best time slots for new jobs, as well.
Synchroteam keeps field service workers on task, and it keeps the front office staff that supports those workers apprised of the latest updates and scheduling changes. Jobs are separated into buckets based on the current status, and flexible records are easily searchable at a moment’s notice. Even customers can get access to their own reports and job histories through a customer portal that Synchroteam provides.
Synchroteam has designed its scheduling screens to make it easy for front desk personnel to quickly assign technicians to new jobs based on their real-time availability, professional competencies, and optimized efficiency. Technicians have the option to examine their daily schedules in detail from their mobile phones, as well.
Use Synchroteam’s unique ScheduleAssist tool to optimize the way your team schedules incoming jobs. ScheduleAssist analyzes existing schedules and suggests the best time for new jobs based on factors like location (travel distance) and the skill of the technician. Synchroteam also offers a way for workers to subscribe to live calendar feeds to get scheduling updates at all times.
Keeping up with field service workers is no easy task. Synchroteam has found a way to minimize the complexity through geolocation with GPS tracking. When emergencies occur, in-office personnel can pinpoint the location of field service workers and send technicians who are already in the area. It even integrates live traffic information into its maps, showing any traffic conditions that could delay a technician as he or she drives to the jobsite.
Synchroteam’s mapping technology shows the real-time location of technicians as they move about the city. Turn on the “To Schedule” overlay, and you can schedule jobs directly from the map. You’ll be able to see how far each technician is from the next job site, adjusted automatically based on actual traffic conditions.
Organization is everything for organizations with mobile workers. Synchroteam keeps jobs and records organized by filing them into virtual buckets based on the current status. Users can view today’s jobs, late jobs, upcoming jobs, recurring jobs, and jobs that still need to be scheduled. They can also search listings and launch tasks from each record.
Use Synchroteam’s job counter to get details on any late jobs or upcoming jobs. You can find out why a job is delayed and resolve whatever issues are preventing it from being scheduled. Customer portals are also an effective way to give customers insights into their accounts, with reports and job histories that can be shared online in a secure, read-only format.
Detailed reports are a key component to any organized workspace. Synchroteam has made job reports a key feature, with the ability for users to tailor reports based on their own unique needs and specifications. Photos and signatures can be added to reports in the field.
Generate new job reports based on the type of job or the customer whose jobs you’re referencing. You can structure the job process, select field types, specify conditions, and define private fields within your reports. Reports are completely compatible with mobile, allowing you to define certain parameters and prevent jobs from being completed until all necessary information has been collected for the report.

I'd been running as an independent IT consultant for a few years. All of a sudden I won two big contracts that made hiring an employee and getting some sort of job scheduling/tracking system a priority.
I demoed pretty well every offering. Synchroteam stood out for a couple of key reasons. The biggest for me was their inventory system. Although it is still in its early days and lacking a few features that I hope are on the way, it's a good inventory system that gives me the ability to transfer stock from the 'warehouse' to our cars and know who has what.
There were other systems out there with inventory but a lot of them were overkill for me and most of them were overly expensive. Synchroteam's price is very reasonable and priced by the tech (free admin account) so it was affordable for starting up.
The way it is setup is logical and once you get used to it (It does look different than most of the other offerings, kind of old school) it is pretty intuitive. Creating clients, jobs and sites is straightforward and the details page of each is well laid out for easy digestion of the information.
The mobile app is good, better than most of the others. It has that same old school look as the website (which isn't a bad thing). The display of information and the interaction with that info is well presented. Tapping phone numbers calls the client, tapping the address give you directions, tapping the client gives your more details via the website, etc. When you create custom fields on your jobs (you should) they get their own screen in the mobile app which is a great way to present key information (Serial #s, Model #'s, etc). You can also create jobs in the mobile app which is handy for me as I dispatch on the go.
The biggest shortcoming I can see, although I don't really use it, is the reporting. I'm not really sure what it reports. I've mucked around with it but haven't gotten any valuable information out.
There are some things I would like to do that I can't and some other things that I hope will evolve into something better but I think these guys know what they are doing. I see the product has had updates since I joined a little over a month ago and looking at past changes I can see that they have been continually improving and adding to the system. I've had good interactions with the help desk (although not always getting the answers I would like) and my rep has been attentive but not too attentive.
Demo the software, you'll like it.
