Field Force Tracker Enables Connected Devices Redefining Field Service for the Connected Era

PRINCETON, N.J. - June 7, 2016 - PRLog -- Field Force Tracker, a leading provider of cloud based Field Service Software, announced availability of new device interfaces to connect customer devices and equipment to its software system. This allows connected devices and equipment to make a service request in automated way.

Harnessing technologies from connected devices and customer data, Field Service Tracker is a modern approach to field service that is built for mobile and the Internet of Things (IoT). With Field Service Tracker, companies can now unite customers, connected devices, agents, dispatchers, and employees in the field with one powerful service platform to deliver a seamless customer experience from phone to field.

Defining the Future of Field Service: Connected, Mobile & Intelligent

Field Force Tracker (http://www.fieldforcetracker.com) , a pioneer in mobile enabled field service space, has delivered mobile solutions for over 10 years. It has built the most comprehensive mobile application for field service that can take care of all service needs. The company has deep experience in developing mobile apps with the ability to customize them to the customer needs.

Field Service Tracker: Connecting Phone-to-Field

Built on Cloud, one of the world's most feature rich customer service platforms, Field Service Tracker enables companies to deliver mobile, intelligent customer service from phone to field. With Field Service Tracker, companies can:

Connect Their Entire Service Workforce

Field Service Tracker connects the entire service organization from call center to the field. Agents, dispatchers and mobile employees in the field are on a single, centralized platform, bringing a new level of transparency and efficiency to customer service.

Service agents have a 360-degree view of the customer and can create a work order from any case. Mobile employees in the field now have access to the customer's full service and purchasing history, empowering them to easily resolve any issue that may arise and possibly upsell the customer on another product.

For instance, a homeowner requests a service visit because their Internet connection has gone down. After resolving the issue, the technician sees within the field service app that the homeowner has previously asked about a faster Internet connection. Using this insight, the technician presents new packaging options and the customer upgrades to a faster Internet speed at a discounted rate.

Intelligently Schedule and Dispatch Work

At the core of field service is scheduling and dispatching. Leveraging features like scheduling and optimization, Field Service Tracker takes dispatching one step further by applying a layer of intelligence. Scheduling is automated based on skills, availability, and location to optimize on-site service.


Track and Manage Jobs in Real-Time

Customer service moves fast and forward-thinking companies need real-time access to their service data. Field Service Tracker enables all service employees to update work orders, issue change requests and adjust job status, anytime, anywhere and on any device. A staggering 65% of field service workers still print out their service tickets and bring them in their vehicles, slowing down the service process.

Now, an employee in the field can see their open work orders on their mobile device; update them throughout the day as they complete jobs, and all the information is seamlessly updated in System.

New features and integration available in the latest release of Field Force Tracker include:

- Expanded Field Resource Manager: Using a mobile device, field supervisors can now manage all field activities in real time with additional insights into field service team capacity. These new capabilities enable the field workforce to quickly respond to changing customer needs, while streamlining collaboration between resources in the field.

- Automated Work Assignment: Companies can now respond to emergency situations using Field Force Tracker. When an event occurs, the application automatically locates the field resource nearest to the job and immediately routes them to the urgent event. The ability to take action automatically, without requiring human intervention, will help companies ensure relevant resources are quickly deployed - which in emergency situations, can make all the difference.

Field Force Tracker (http://www.fieldforcetracker.com) delivers a complete service experience across a wide range of modern contact center channels including web, phone, email, chat, social and the in-person field service interaction, all powered by the latest technology. This cross channel, connected and mobile service experience is something that competitive products fail to deliver.
