Introducing Zoho FSM, the end-to-field service management platform!

Introducing Zoho FSM, the end-to-field service management platform!

We are excited to introduce Zoho FSM, a powerful, one-stop field service management platform!


 
Zoho FSM caters to service businesses, especially those with extensive and diverse field teams. These include service providers in industries like home services, HVAC, construction, utilities, healthcare, telecommunication, and security. 
Their biggest challenge is handling operations efficiently from a central location while also ensuring a great service experience. It takes diligent planning, constant supervision, and efficient operations.
 
Zoho FSM automates the entire spectrum of field operations and ensures complete visibility for all service stakeholders, including field technicians, customer representatives, and sales teams. 
 
What makes Zoho FSM unique? 
 
Zoho FSM is a comprehensive field service management platform, designed to seamlessly manage the entire field service operations including customer management, work order management, workforce management, and invoicing and payments.
It can integrate with other Zoho services spanning sales, customer service, marketing, finance, and HR. This enables businesses to gain valuable insights and information from multiple functional units.

What problems do field service providers face?
 
- No single platform for all field service needs
- Lack of visibility over work at the site 
- Reduced productivity due to improper workforce management
- Rigid, inflexible solutions limit growth.
- Ineffective customer interaction resulting in a lack of customer retention.

How does Zoho FSM elevate field service management?
 
 
Zoho FSM gives you everything needed to manage field operations effectively in a single platform. It lets you process service requests and manage work orders. It allows you to track field agents, view schedules and select the right resource to dispatch. It also lets business owners track KPIs with reports.
Beyond this, Zoho FSM caters to workforce management, customer management, asset management, and inventory tracking. Having all the data and functionality on a single software minimizes errors and slip-ups that may cost a great deal to fix.


Handling billing and payments often require special software and expertise, resulting in slowing down revenue collection. Zoho FSM leverages the power of the Zoho Finance Suite for all invoicing and payment functionalities. This lets you turn work orders into branded invoices with a single click. It also simplifies taxes and lets you collect online payments through payment gateways.


 
The absence of a centralized communication platform can impede effective dialogue between call center agents, managers, field technicians, and customers. Effective communication with agents on the move is essential for visibility over the work. To achieve this, Zoho FSM comes with a mobile app for field agents. It lets them access all customer and job-related information and complete tasks on the go. The Zoho FSM mobile app enables live location tracking for improved scheduling. Field agents can upload notes and photos from the job site, fill out service reports, collect payments, and get the customer's feedback on the app.
 
 
With Zoho FSM, it is possible to manage large teams effortlessly by enhancing the coordination and efficiency of the workforce. The multi-user environment lets you assign different profiles based on your needs. Zoho FSM gives business owners an overview of the technicians' daily tasks, trips, and time-offs. Field agents can be sorted based on their skills and territory and grouped to form Crews for improved planning and productivity.
 
 
Zoho FSM has been made with the understanding that every field service business is unique. The customization components, like custom fields and profiles, let you personalize your experience and build additional functionality. You can also automate repetitive tasks with workflows, custom functions, and webhooks to save time and effort.
 
Integrations to extend Zoho FSM 
 
Zoho FSM integrates with other Zoho and third-party applications to ensure your business runs like a well-oiled machine. 
Zoho FSM is integrated with Zoho Books/Invoice to handle billing and payments. This lets you create branded invoices in a click and collect online payments through a host of payment gateways. You can also define country-specific taxes and support multiple currencies. 
The Zoho Inventory integration lets you access features like serial number tracking and multiple warehouse management to make stock keeping easier.  
The Zoho FSM extension for Zoho CRM lets you merge sales and service. You can sync records bidirectionally between the applications and view FSM records contextually in your CRM.
Beyond this, you can integrate with other third-party apps using REST APIs provided by Zoho FSM.
 
Deliver a memorable service experience every time.
 
Delivering a great customer experience is impossible without improving organizational processes. With efficient scheduling and timely updates, customers are always kept in the loop and never kept waiting. The provision to store and access customer details and job history helps in providing the ideal solution each time. At the site, the technician, skilled and equipped with the right parts, completes the job to the customers' satisfaction.
 
 Zoho FSM cuts down operational complexities and helps businesses refocus their energy on growth. A strong system can reduce operational costs while boosting revenue, creating a more profitable business model.
 
Zoho FSM has a flexible, appointment-based pricing plan that lets you choose based on the number of appointments you will be creating each month. You can add any number of users to your Zoho FSM without an increase in prices.

    • Report on opportunities showing only the last note added.

      Hi I need to create a report that shows the most recent note added to each opportunity. This is so management can see what the latest update is according to the assigned salesperson. One workaround is to use the status field but this implies added manual work and mistakes as the salesperson would have to copy the existing status to a note before adding the latest status... otherwise the activity history would be lost. My current workaround is a report on Notes with Opportunities as the related module.
