Easy to use and administer product

PROS

Boss811 is very simple to set up. It's a no-code solution for anyone to set up assignment rules in just minutes.

CONS

The reporting customization needs more help. We're always wanting to see up-to-date live reports that I can create very quickly and easily and be able to download as CSV.

Replaced our internal ticket tracking with BOSS811. Glad we did.

We had invested thousands trying to get our internal Ticket Management System updated. The project was over a year behind and well over budget. We pulled the plug on the programmer and went with Boss811 instead. Should have done it a year earlier.

PROS

Has all the features you will probably ever need plus a lot that you may not need today, but may need in the future. Our field personnel love it.

CONS

It would be nice if Boss811 included property lines, such as are available with the Regrid app. Had a few hits lately where either the excavator or our locator "assumed" where the property ended and they were wrong on tickets saying "Locate Entire Property". We are using the Regrid (free) app when we need to, but if Boss811 could use the same property line database, it could show property lines in the ticket map.

Reasons for switching to BOSS811

Required updates to our old Ticket Management System were over a year behind schedule and well over budget.

Boss811 is definitely the best "Bang for the Buck"!

With BOSS811, management can keep an eye on everything, without being at the desktop.

PROS

If I had to choose one item, it would have to be the BOSS811 app. It makes the job so must easier for the locator. As far as the software goes, I would have to say that the "Reports" part of the software is what I like most.

CONS

I don't know that I have any cons about BOSS811. It does everything we need, plus options for a lot of other things that we do not use.

Reason for choosing BOSS811

BOSS811 price is very competitive and the software and app is superior.

Reasons for switching to BOSS811

They increased their price, so it gave us an excuse to go looking around. Glad we did :)
