### "Couldn't manage without it"

April 11, 2017

5.0

Fantastic software that has all the functions we need to run our service based business. We can manage staff, allocate jobs and meet Customers expectations with the help of ServiceM8 Customer support is super responsive.

Pros

So easy to use

Cons

Its not my own so you can't make changes that might be specific to your business, but there isn't much we need that isn't provided.

### "Quality product backed up by great service and support."

January 6, 2017

4.0

ServiceM8 has been great for us. It is easy to navigate and understand. The ability to create a checklist for techs' iPads has effectively eliminated paper work orders. The custom queues have been invaluable for keeping us on track with our customers. We are still learning all the ins and outs but the more we explore features, the more we find it can do for us. It can be a bit quirky at times but any questions you have are quickly answered by a top-notch support team. The support chat has -amazing- response time and follow-up.

Pros

Easy to use. Great support.

Cons

Exclusive to Apple mobile devices

### "Supporting expansion"

August 11, 2016

4.0

We have been using serviceM8 for around 4 months and we have found that we have better control over the jobs we are doing both in terms of scheduling and recording progress. It has also given us improved focus on ensuring we are paid on time and in full. Our overall control over what we do and when we do it has improved so much I cant see how we survived before we started using serviceM8.

Pros

ServiceM8 gives us everything we need in one place, we can record jobs, schedule work, link emails and files, make notes, and invoice all from one system.

Cons

There seems in places to be a lack of flow in the structure, for instance you can record the email address and phone number for each staff member in settings but the icons at the top of the dispatch board for each staff member do not allow you to view that information, its a minor thing but its the sort of thing that would be a nice to have feature.

### "Excellent system with great service back up"

August 11, 2016

5.0

From the start this sustem has helped us run our business be more effective and profitable with easy to use features.

Pros

Only charging per job after the first 20 makes it more cost effective. The features are all easy to use from the office staff to the engineers on the road. Great customer help nothing if ever too much trouble. Integration with QBO is a key feature for us making the business more streamlined.

Cons

Pity they are not UK based but you can't have everything I suppose!

February 8, 2023

Hey there Scott — the way the ServiceM8 mobile app is made specially for iPhone & iPad doesn't come from a place of "arrogance". It's 100% about making the best solution for our customers. We cover this in detail here: https://www.servicem8.com/apple-exclusive . But, if you don't like Apple products, there's no way around that, and we're simply not the solution for you, (and that's OK). Thanks, ServiceM8 Team

### "Awesome CRM for the busy tradie"

August 11, 2016

5.0

The perfect CRM for busy tradies as it was so easy to learn. It works great on a tablet or smart phone as well which is perfect for our boys.

Pros

Looks great, easy to use. Had it up and running in a couple of days and was leaps ahead of our last program.

Cons

Needs much more functionality with inventory and pricing.

### "ServiceM8 has given me more time back in my day"

October 12, 2017

4.0

Pros

Tight interaction with Apple ios means that it consistently works. A major release each year with really useful new function / features. A responsive support team that answers questions / issues in a timely manner

Cons

The browser accessible app has more functions than the ipad / iphone app which means that you still need to sit infront of a laptop sometimes. Not integrated with my accounts software package Clearbooks .

### "Efficient, cost-effective solution for our business!"

June 26, 2017

5.0

Multiple users at the same time from anywhere we have internet access. Badges, making mandatory tasks a must for the technicians--helps with accountability and thoroughness. The cost savings over our old program are huge.

Pros

I love that it's cloud based and that we can have more than one desktop user in the program from anywhere! I also love how user-friendly the desktop AND iPhone app is. It's sleek and easy to use. The Add-ons are also great. I'm blown away by how cost-effective this program is too--pay for the jobs you create. The online chat feature with customer support has been amazing. Keep up the great work!

Cons

There are so many add-ons, I'm worried we are missing something really useful! The add-ons we have activated are working well, but I'm not sure we are using them to their full capacity.

### "Clean, intuitive software"

August 11, 2016

4.0

The best service software we could find. Easily has the best interface on mobile devices, with well laid out and clean menus.

Pros

This software has no contract like some, so it was very easy for us to try it out for several weeks with literally no money required.

Cons

It does not integrate with QB Desktop, and so far we have not found online accounting software to meet our needs. So for the time being we double enter much information. :(

August 11, 2016

5.0

Super easy to use and has nearly all the features I need that I can think of. Always happy for a new features that make it even easier. Really great product. We are not using the system regularly as yet as we had a bunch of job cards on the previous software company that we are going to use up first, but once those are used up we will be very happily using Service8, much much better program

Pros

Everything

Cons

Don't really have anything I don't like as it fits the purpose of our business
