Field service management is a priority for telecom, utility, property maintenance, health care and other service providers. Your ability to provide timely, professional field service to your customers is a vital part of your overall value proposition.

Field service refers to any work your organization performs on a client's property instead of your own. Some examples of this include:
Every business is different, but any organization that offers outside service knows that keeping both costs manageable and customers happy is a delicate balance. It isn't worth the investment in time or money if your customer is unsatisfied with the level of service they receive. At the same time, you cannot let field service affect your bottom line.
Field service management is a coordinated effort to make field service work for both you and your customers. It encompasses several things — fleet management, team efficiency, quality control and more. When done right, it will allow you to make smarter strategic decisions that help you go the extra mile for the people you serve — without breaking the bank.

"We recently switched to Map Business Online at our company. Not only is MBO returning us better results than our old software, but it came with a 3500% decrease in yearly licensing fees! We couldn't be happier with the switch. Excellent ease of use. I was able to just open up the program and go. It's very user friendly. I did get stuck with one feature, and reached out to customer service for help. I didn't really expect to get anything in return, but they emailed me back within the hour, and I was only a trial member! Very pleased."
