### "I work with this software daily to schedule clients. "

January 10, 2018

4.0

Pros

I like that it's compatible with AHS and the clients come across easily. I also like that they have apps because i travel a lot out of the office.

Cons

I don't like that the software can be extremely glitchy. While it does allow you schedule it changes the name of clients if it feels they are similar creating a lot of work if you have to enter them individually. We recently have also had scheduled clients not show up on the scheduled dates. This creates issues when your workers rely heavily on this software to keep them on track and on time.

### "Streamlining Operations for Efficient Service Management"

July 18, 2024

4.0

My overall experience with the service dispatch system has been positive in terms of streamlining our service operations and improving efficiency. It effectively manages scheduling, job assignments, and real-time updates, which have enhanced our ability to deliver timely service to customers. However, the challenge of integrating customer data into our main database remains a significant drawback. Despite this, the system's robust features and support have contributed to overall improvements in service management and customer satisfaction within our organization.

Pros

The system excels in scheduling and dispatching technicians efficiently. It allows us to assign jobs based on technician availability, location, and expertise, ensuring optimal resource allocation. Managing jobs from creation to completion is seamless. We can create work orders, attach relevant documentation, and track progress throughout the entire service cycle. The reporting and analytics features provide valuable insights into key metrics such as job completion rates, technician productivity, and lead services performances.

Cons

Integrating customer data often requires manual entry or duplicate efforts, as the system lacks seamless integration with our existing customer database.

### "Awful"

October 24, 2023

1.0

Pros

Easy to use. Gets the job done sometimes.

Cons

The customer service is awful. Would not recommend ever. No way to just call them to solve an issue takes them forever to reply to emails.

It's overall just okay, not great. If you're used to working with Service Titan, you will be disappointed.

Pros

Easy to navigate and enter in new customer information.

Cons

You cannot search archived jobs - huge disadvantage when I need to look back at an older job. It is not very well integrated with other systems.

### "Best Dispatch system"

December 20, 2019

5.0

My whole team is well familiarized and use dispatch on every order. It is a great communication route with Home warranty companies that we work with who are affiliated with Dispatch me app. Very convenient and fast method to relay information to them directly without the long phone hold up times.

Pros

The best thing about this software is that it is super easy to work with, can put in notes for tech,customer,office staff, allows user to determine who they want to share the information with.

Cons

Sometimes difficult to upload information for techs out in the files due to internet reception. Would be great to be able to access it at all times.

### "This software has DRAMATICALLY transformed our business operations!!"

March 7, 2018

4.0

All our customer info is harbored for easy access and to reference back when we run into issues or questions!

Pros

The ease of use and overall organization. Also how there is a way to label jobs and add notes and pictures. Also the fact that is has partnered w/ some of our partnering warranty companies to save us the time of manually entering the job info or ahving to update the warranty portals!

Cons

IT WILL MERGE JOBS THAT ARENT SUPPOSE TO MERGE!! It also does not allow you to search for an invoice by invoice # - you must look up the address or customer, (which can be a huge pain when you have done several jobs for that same client) and then open up everysingle job, check the invoices displayed, then go back and search again, click the 2nd search result.. and so forth. Takes quite a while when you have someone waiting on the phone for an answer to what is suppose to be a quick question.

### "Dispatch Review"

February 26, 2020

2.0

Very frustrating. Very poor customer service. The do not reply to complaints. They do not return calls and they do not call when they say someone will call us.

Pros

It works with home warranties which the home warranty companies we work with required us to use this software

Cons

Its to easy to accidentally delete an invoice. Picture quality is horrible. App has extreme difficulty uploading pics. It not the phone as it has the same issues with android or apple and even the latest greatest phones.

Reason for choosing Dispatch

It was required by the home warranty companies we work with.

### "Best Tool on the Market"

December 6, 2019

5.0

We are able to run a much smoother business and get things done much faster from the field to the office, allowing parts to be ordered immediately and the customer is kept in the loop resulting in happier techs, office and customers

Pros

Keeps our techs informed as well as our dispatch in real time. Jobs are completed faster and billed out immediately and everyone is in the know

Cons

sometimes it fails to download pictures of the job resulting in having to go back to get model and serial numbers

### "Over all use"

October 15, 2019

5.0

Pros

I like the convenience of knowing where my team members are, how they are doing through out their day. The ability to view pictures and notes that are sent to us in office. As well as closing out the records before they come back at the end of the day. The convenience of our clients knowing when their team members are on their way, when they start, when they finish. And a review scoring their service is given immediately.

Cons

Many times through out our day we will get calls from clients expressing they didn't get their notice that their team member was on their way. Delayed notices:

### "Worst customer service "

May 20, 2022

1.0

Pros

None. The customer support is nonexistent.

Cons

They are literally zero help if you have issues. I've called a few times and I'm still waiting for a return phone call from 3 weeks ago. Don't depend on this program for your business. If you have issues you're going to regretting your decision.

Being a able to schedule work and personal apt and being able to text the customer their apt time throught the software and make notes and just the overall set up is easy to navigate! we work with a different company and they make us use a different software and it is extremely difficult to navigate and communicate to that company through. sometimes less is more. i love this software.

Pros

It covers ALL the bases a company needs to function. We are more than pleased with this software. Keep up the great work. They have thought of everything and even made some new features on it to make it even better!!! love it

### "Dispatch an ok system for HVAC "

October 16, 2025

3.0

Dispatch for us, was a step up from using Google Calendar. For the overall dispatch and scheduling has been ok. Good means for communication from the field to the office. We used the invoicing section for a time but it did not meet our needs.

Pros

Dispatch overall was super easy to implement and easy to use for scheduling. Easy one-way communication with customers from technicians in the field. Field techs liked the ability to review job on cell phones.

Cons

When using the invoicing system, there was no way to edit or make changes as the job progressed if an error occurred or additional items needed to be added. Inability to color-code job types within the schedule display. No ability to do a vertical schedule, only linear, so you can not view multiple days at one time. Poor reporting ability.

### "Dispatch is great!"

June 4, 2025

5.0

Overall my experience has been really good. It helps me do be more efficient and productive. It induces better performance from the technicians too.

Pros

Dispatch is a mind reader! Its THE perfect companion for service coordination. Streamline and user friendly too!

Cons

Maybe more space for note taking for individual jobs. Also more space for saving notes for just the dispatch and office personel.

### "Ensured effective delivery management system for intelligent logistics"

April 16, 2025

4.0

Pros

I found out that the Dispatch solution is best suited for large numbers of drivers since it keeps them all in check. The benefits of the delivery management software include the ability to properly manage routes to have the packages delivered at the appropriate time.

Cons

The only limitation that I encountered were minor problems with real-time tracking. This would affect the tracking data and decrease the possibility of knowing the delivery position to the customers which at some instances caused confusion in terms of delivery.

### "Useful for small business and large business alike"

March 27, 2020

4.0

I feel like I'm ahead of the technological game against my competitors. It makes my small 3-man company appear like a giant, which improves my image to customers and their comfort towards working with small businesses.

Pros

I enjoy Dispatch.me very much. It has helped streamline my appointments for my technicians as well as streamline my flow of work. The ability to talk to customers via messaging is not only easy, but vital to some consumers who have a difficult time hearing on the phone or getting voicemails. It's also been a good backup to my calling system, showing the customer proof that I've attempted contact in several other ways besides just telephone, which is sometimes disputed.

Cons

At first, the changes made to Dispatch.me were large and very disruptive. Years ago when it first released, it felt like it was crashing often. Now recently, the changes have been very subtle and easy to adjust to. Sometimes there are glitches, but they're not usually work-altering problems, and they're fixed relatively quickly.

[Setmore](https://www.capterra.com/p/122035/SetMore/)

Setmore is clunky, has too many steps for everything, and doesn't feel like it fits the needs of my contractors. I feel like it's a program better suited for hairdressers or makeup artists who have customers come to their homes/places of business, than it is suited for a contractor visiting customer homes.

### "Price per month excessive for 'subscription features-Customer Set Up Quirky"

March 21, 2017

3.0

Pros

It could be a useful tool if not for the cost. Gives ability to enter notes for each customer/address. Gives mapping ability to see where calls already scheduled are located and where new ones are in vicinity. En Route feature is nice to advise customers you are on the way BUT it is way too aggressive in giving frequent updates to the customer on your every move while on the way. Keeps status of appointments separated nicely from new to parts on order to completion. Customers get to respond with review at the completion of each call with a text.

Cons

\-Pricing is excessive - very excessive by comparison -New customer entry is not user friendly. Quirky and sometimes have to try to do it multiple times. -We are forced to use this app for a home warranty company we do work for free. However, in order to 'upgrade' - to access features we currently have in our other dispatching software app we already had and pay $60 per month for - this one wants $199 per month. So option is to run 2 dispatching software and do double work or pay over 3 times the price for a product we don't find as user friendly as our current one -EnRoute feature is invasive to privacy and gives too many updates to customers while along the route. Can't use it until you pull up in the driveway to avoid the aggressive following. . -

### "We switched from another dispatch system to Dispatch Me and love it!"

December 20, 2017

5.0

It is easier to manage and everyone is able to use this system. We are now able to go paperless.

Pros

Tracking our technicians was a great feature for me and the office staff. I also like that we can submit reviews to popular social media sites.

Cons

Having the pages of the map and information or schedule all on the same page. Also the mobile app doesn't have the ability to edit.

### "Dispatchers Dream"

December 10, 2019

5.0

We are able to get to clients on time and let them know with a push of a button. It cuts out calls to client from the office to advise a tech is on their way. Scheduling is easier when you see the full picture on the map. Easy to keep track of who is missing notes / work orders

Pros

Easy to track technicians Easy to schedule jobs and check the history of work done at clients Pictures can be uploaded Maps are great to be able to schedule jobs in the same area if a tech is close by Clients love being notified when the technician is on his / her way

Cons

More information could be sent to technicians when a job is assigned (Address / Type of job) Reminders 10-15 minutes before the job is scheduled would be great Monthly overview would be great to have

Reason for choosing Dispatch

It was our first option

### "Dispatch review"

August 23, 2019

4.0

How much easier it is to keep track of our jobs and what it happening with them. We switched to Dispatch because we are working for American Home Shield and they use this software and it just made our work for them more streamlined.

Pros

I like how easy it is to use, how quick you can learn how to use it.

Cons

The limited amount of reports that you can print. I can't delete duplicate customers on my own without contacting support to do it for me.

Switched from

[Housecall Pro](https://www.capterra.com/p/140363/HouseCall-Pro/)

Because American Home Shield uses or recommended Dispatch, so we switched to streamline the job process.

### "Garage Door Company "

March 19, 2020

5.0

We like the product. The app has some quirks like not being able to reschedule paused calls. Also not being able to do Quickbooks Credit Cards is a challenge. The process of editing estimates and invoices once marked Won. Immediately transferring to Quickbooks would be nice. The delay causes issues if we have to revise something or add a product last minute. Would like to be able to click out of “on my way”, if we accidentally hit it.

Pros

Quick setup. The service tech’s were able to puck it up quickly.

Cons

I would like the review process to go straight to Social Media, Google, yelp, or to a platform where other consumers can read the reviews. Most customers will not select or take the extra step to forward the review onto the major platforms. Seeing the reviews are nice, but it really is not beneficial unless customers can read them.
