Ratings and reviews

Once you learn how to navigate past the bugs and glitches, it works fine a third of the time. The keyboard gets stuck on the screen, forcing me to close the app and relaunch. Sometimes, it'll do it multiple times on the same ticket. Work summary won't attach to the invoice. Traveling/Working status will update for me but not the office. Invoices will show up blank on the office side. If you try and bring problems to customer service, they blame your internet connection. Don't waste your time.

Clunky and over complicated, it's like the app has been made unnecessarily complicated to make it seem super advanced or something. Not user friendly at all. Edit... The app has gotten consistently worse. I use it on both Android and iPad and both are equally awful. Doesn't sync, loses quotes, doesn't communicate with the office, and doesn't hold signatures or prices if your signal is any less than full bars. We are switching over to Service Titan at the end of the month and I can't wait.

The program is fine for the majority of my companies needs. Like most it has issues. The biggest problem is the Mobil version. It constantly crashes, stops working at random or will change settings on at random. There are times it will randomly leave technicians without ability to even see the prices in our price book or even certain items that were previously accessible. It usually takes multiple attempts at deleting, updating, installing the program for the features to return.
