Hi

Anybody using this software to run their business? I'm considering it as an alternative to Jobber.The pricing seems similar and has intergration with QuickBooks. We are mainly grounds maintenance and mowing so would be grateful for any advice from others using this in that line of work.

Thanks

  • Hi Steve

    I am just trawling the forum trying to find any chats about management software and would be interested to know how you are getting on. I currently use Sage for accounts and a holiday booking app but everything else is done here in the office the old fashioned way. I have been looking at WorkForce, FieldMotion and GeoOp for managing the teams. I would be grateful for any advice or tips you have! We are also gardens and grounds maintenance rather than landscaping generally.

    Many thanks

  • Hi Steve

    We used Fieldmotion for just over a year and generally it worked ok but came away from it for a couple of reasons, firstly my employees mobile phone data was being drained each month especially if their uploading photos also the cost is £25 per user per month and your tied in for 24 months and lastly is was more work for me as the administrator entering the guys work schedule for the following days work although this can be done for a designated period but as you know in grounds maintenance work schedules can change last minute.

    Now we have got back to paper schedule and using WhatsApp for photos.

    Hi Steven, I just responded to your enquiry re Winchester, which I came across when searching Fieldmotion on this site.  We are looking at various software options and a friend of mine has recently mentioned Fieldmotion.

    Did you get any further with this or did you opt for an alternative software, would be interested to know?

    Cheers

      Hi Richard - No I didn't move forward on this or any other software as yet.Any feedback from the friend on FM?

      • PRO

        Hi Steven,  No progress with FM, my friend is still interested in the system but due to other priorities re pandemic and business has not moved forward.

        To me it seems a minefield, why did you not go with Jobber, it seems very popular with other people on here?  It looks swish in the demo, we were looking for a system that we can digitise our H&S documents etc, it appears that you can't do this with Jobber.

        We are pretty busy at the moment, how about you?

  • Hi Steven,

    I'm a reseller for Fieldmotion and would be happy to discuss your requirment.

    My background is Grounds Maintenance so I think we will speak the same language!

    As with all software, its important to set up effetively and ensure you get it doing the basics for you well, before adding forms to broaden its scope, which is easy to do.

    Its disapointing that you didnt geta response to the online demo, that should be an automatice process, but if you get in touch, I can arrange a bespoke session.

    I'm new to LJ so am not sure the protacol in regards to posing my contact details? 

    Hope we can speak soon.

    Richard
