5.0

Pros

Ease of use and the support we received at the onset and ongoign

Still some reports I would like to see and some are too complex, would like the ability to customize the drop downs and only show reports that we use regularly

### "PSA Review"

December 17, 2021

3.0

Pros

The ability to track job costing on a daily basis. Our previous software program did not accurately reflect the cost of a job as quickly. It makes tracking a job's progress against the estimate much easier.

Cons

Sometimes, the abundance of data is too much and it becomes overwhelming, and at times, confusing.

### "Project Management with PSA"

December 13, 2021

4.0

PSA has helped us be more organized and manage our job budgets better.

Pros

We bought it for the scheduling features, and use it daily. Love how it integrates with other software such as Xactimate & Quickbooks.

Cons

In my work documentation is important. PSA allows you to store all types of files, but doesn't allow you to zoom in on pictures. When looking for details zoom is vital. Also when you want to open a document, besides a picture, you have to download it. Makes the process of reviewing documents slow.

Reason for choosing PSA

Recommendations from other users in the same industry.

### "Simple, Intuitive, job tracking software"

December 3, 2021

4.0

PSA has been a great experience so far. We have recommended it to other companies we work with. The mobile app allows the guys in the field to quickly enter information to keep jobs moving.

Pros

PSA is a very simple program which handles job tracking well. We are easily able to see all the jobs we have open and what needs to be done in them.

Cons

The software really needs a job search function for searches as easy as searching jobs by phone number. Often we have customers call who mumble their names and we cant find the job without asking more probing questions, making it look like we don't know our customers when we just cant hear them. If we can search by phone number we can pull the job up off the caller ID. Navigation in some of the more advance screens like tasks or scheduling should be tabs at the top instead of buried in menus. The time screen needs to be accessible from the mobile app.

IRestore had very unreliable servers that were down constantly. It was also based off File Maker so there were multiple pieces of software needed just to run it.

### "PSA thoughts"

December 3, 2021

3.0

Not bad. It's eating a grilled cheese when I wanted a steak - I am still full, but not satisfied.

Pros

The billing/invoicing feature is quite easy to use and relatively efficient. There are things that could definitely make it a better product, but for the cost and trainability of it, it's pretty good.

Cons

Everything outside of the billing/invoicing is bulky, inefficient, difficult to maneuver around in - it is like working in Windows Vista. Just awful.

Reason for choosing PSA

Price and good salesmen

### "PSA Everything Has It's Pros and Cons "

December 8, 2021

4.0

PSA is a user friendly program everything that you need to review the jobs is right in front of you, it has saved multiple hours of entering manually I am so glad that we have progressed into the future of PSA I thank you Virginia

Pros

We have been using PSA for almost a year we have now gone paperless with our tracking of materials and equipment on all of our jobs. We have barcodes that we scan for our product and equipment scans right to the job. The accessibility is extremely easy the techs have made it user friendly with the reports that they have created

Cons

The features that I would like to see in the future is to be able to edit the equipment dates and amounts, it makes it time consuming if I don't sign the equipment back in on the date that it has been returned I can not edit and therefore have to send notes to the project managers in regards to when the equipment came back. If we are paying all this money for this program to be charged extra $250 dollars for the tech team to make a report for us and anything else we might need is what I consider a bit extreme .

Visibility on job status and financials is good.

Pros

Integration was not easy. We like the ability to send emails and update job dates the most.

Cons

We abandoned using equipment feature and have had to use other platforms to track equipment. Time and material billing’s not easy. The app is clunky and freezes often. We have abandoned using forms.

Pros

Ease of tracking jobs, communicating with technicians and job referrers and getting reports for evaluation Support staff was excellent to work with and the software was usually easy to adapt to our needs

Pros

It is affordable and relatively good product. Technical Support is very good.

Cons

It seems a lot of clicking to get information. It would be nice to have small financial summary when you are in a job. You can not change dates of equipment set up, especially for the jobs that come in over weekend.

### "Easily learned software to keep your Company organized"

December 8, 2021

5.0

Pros

I like the way that you can customize your "job look up" tab. I find helpful to look up jobs by their claim numbers sometimes rather than the actual job number or address.

Cons

It's a little bit confusing when you need to add an agent or adjuster from an Insurance Company. It isn't that easy and the tabs are confusing. I always have to ask for help when I need to do this.

The mobile app is not good. It is not robust and doesn't allow a lot of work in the field from it. Time tracker doesn't talk will with the main system.

The support team has been wonderful when there is an issue it has been rectified and they always follow up to ensure we are happy.

Pros

We use both the Desktop and the Web version and have technicians use the mobile app. I Like mostly the real time use in the web and mobile and the ability to manipulate the program to some degree to suite our company needs.

Cons

like least about this software is the lag time for the real time to sync with the desktop, it can be discouraging. Sometimes it can be 5 - 15 minutes but then much longer for other times. This is when it is not so real time.

Overall I enjoy using PSA. I like its functionality of payroll data is synced to Quick Books. PSA does reduce the number of hours spent on payroll, vendor, and customer management.

Pros

Ability to use it for payroll, Customer and Vendor Management

Cons

PSA sync-generated log files are tough to understand, I wish if it's easy enough for somebody with a non-IT background to decipher it and fix the issues.

### "Using for a few months"

December 13, 2021

PSA is cumbersome, and be confusing. You have training on the program before the program is even set up. After months of using the program and taking pictures on the job site, it doesn't get easier. It takes twice as long now to take pictures, and you have to make sure you save them or all your pictures are lost.

Pros

What I liked most was it does track the jobs, whether emergency or repair. Does have documents premade and ready.

Cons

To take pictures it's very cumbersome. Not very user friendly to set up pictures folders and take pictures on the jobsite. Also nothing is easy and straight forward when uploaded pictures to Xactimate or to file on the computer. Way to many steps.
