Simpro

Arkon-Simpro

Comentários: Em resumo, vejo o Simpro como uma ferramenta poderosa que me ajuda a aprimorar a eficiência operacional do meu negócio e automatizar tarefas. Com o Simpro, posso otimizar os processos de negócios, promover a colaboração entre as equipes e obter melhores resultados em termos de produtividade.

Vantagens:

Uma das principais vantagens do Simpro é sua capacidade de mapear e visualizar os processos de negócios de forma clara e concisa. Isso me permite identificar gargalos, pontos de melhoria e oportunidades de automação, ajudando-me a tomar decisões informadas para otimizar as operações da minha empresa.

Desvantagens:

Embora eu reconheça que o Simpro é altamente personalizável em muitos aspectos, sinto que há algumas áreas onde gostaria de ter uma personalização mais abrangente. Por exemplo, gostaria de ter a capacidade de personalizar relatórios de acordo com minhas necessidades específicas ou ajustar certas configurações para melhor atender ao meu tipo de negócio. Acredito que uma maior flexibilidade nessas áreas poderia melhorar ainda mais a adaptabilidade do Simpro para diferentes tipos de negócios.

Excellent Program - HIGHLY Recommend!

Vantagens:

They are continuously improving and updating simPRO. In comparison to other similar programs I've tried, it's not all pretty bells & whistles, it's bells & whistles with tangible depth and detail.

Desvantagens:

The implementation seemed cumbersome initially, but absolutely essential given the range of the software. The training was excellent and the customer service/help-desk is great.

Excellent Product & Support

Comentários: From the first contact with Simpro, they were excellent. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] who was great, came to see us and showed us what it could do for us, so having to consider very carefully following a failed software implementation with another provider, we decided to proceed with them. They weren't the cheapest but we got a good feel for the company and we haven't been disappointed. It wasn't an easy task transferring our data to Simpro and was very time consuming but has been completely worth it now it's up and running.

Vantagens:

It's very user friendly and just works for our business

Desvantagens:

Occasionally we find there is no fix for something we want to change to suit our needs but there is usually a way around it and support are very helpful with suggestions. I am able to submit suggestions to a forum in which they consider putting changes in place if they can.

Disappointing and wasted money - HORRIBLE SUPPORT

Comentários: I would not recommend Simpro to a single individual I know at this point. The run around and lack of care to resolve issues, or even address them, is astounding. I was told I would have someone from operations reach out to me by end of day (I have been trying to get help for a week), to only receive an email the following day it would be the end of the following week. Management needs to discuss how to handle the situation, not once has someone called me other than to offer me more "free" training. IF YOU ARE ON THE FENCE OR ARE WANTING TO TRY SOMETHING NEW DO NOT USE THIS PROGRAM. They do not care about the company they care about their numbers. You are not a person to them you are just a contract.

Vantagens:

The only item of value with this program would be the financial reporting. This is a program that the customer has to work for, it does not work for the customer. My implementation rep was the only person who actually seems to care and did try very hard to make this work for us.

Desvantagens:

1. Customer support - if you have an issue, expect 2-3 days if not weeks for a reply, good luck if it is an issue impacting your operations, you will be dead in the water. Speaking with a live person could take days, the chat is always down, and apparently the office is always closed stateside. 2. The field app is limited, does not allow for easy use between devices, information does not get saved or stored and is constantly being lost. You also cannot search for customers on the app. It is very limited for functionality, service and quoting is all that can be accessed. The time clocking also does not allow for after hours service calls to be logged and documented correctly. 3. The "block" scheduling is complicated and does not work well for service jobs that need to move between technicians. 4. Everything is "view" prohibited, if you are not in the correct view you cannot do basic functions. 5. ON BOARDING COST - you pay for basic training of the program, which they have hundreds of online videos that would do the same thing - THEY DO NOT LIFT A FINGER IN BRINING YOUR DATA OVER YOU DO EVERYTHING. When I was initially starting I TRIPPLE CONFIRMED the onboarding fee was to help bring over our old data from Service Fusions, jobs/invoices/cost etc. I was told yes they bring it all over to make us whole - this is not true. You get a template to bring your materials in and customers over BUT you do this all yourself. ALSO, I was told the forms to be able to attached to jobs and fill out were not extras, apparently its a separate app and fee entirely. SALES - The sales individual I worked with sold me lies, I was incredibly clear on what I needed and was requiring from our next software. I was told multiple things that turned out to not be true, and were confirmed by people in the organization that I was not told true items and in fact I was very clear about what I needed and had been misrepresented by they coworker. GUARANTEE - This company does not have a 30-90 day money back guarantee for a non-functioning program. I did everything they asked of me and more during implementation, my rep even confirmed I exceeded their expectations of a new role out YET, I cannot get help on getting a refund for a program I was very eager to use, but has turned out to be doing more harm to the business than good. I have done everything to make this work for us and just wanted a conversation regarding a refund and what my options are since the program really is not working for us. The lack of follow up and support from "upper management" on a so called "important and escalated" issue is disheartening.

Robust and intuitive field management software

Comentários: Overall, this has been an amazing experience for us. The software feels like just what the doctor ordered and we are very happy with the choice. The simPRO team has been rock solid, supportive, knowledgeable, and fun to work with from day 1.

Vantagens:

When it comes to field service management this is custom software which is hard to beat. simPRO is bringing a new level and caliber of organization and efficiency to our business and we are still implementing all that it offers. Our field techs now have vastly more relevant information at their fingertips than ever before which is empowering them to be more productive, efficient, and professional.

Desvantagens:

There are a few confusing aspects of the contacts database and how it relates and connects to jobs, quotes, customers, etc. There are a number of static fields which do not populate from the existing customer database when it seems they should. For instance, if we have an existing contact, we can not simply lookup and connect it to a site contact or invoice contact without some hoops and hurdles.
