When we presented our needs in detail many times over, they agreed they could handle them in the end, they were unstable and unable to deliver.

However, we only used it to dispatch work to our mobile techs and that part worked seamless. The techs loved the simplicity of the software.

That didn't change the fact that FieldLocate is an inferior product with no real support.

If you look on their website and talk to them, they will sell you the world. The invoicing is pathetic on this software.

Their licensing practices -- with the annual commitment -- is unfriendly and unusual in the software licensing world, in my experience. Terrible overall experience.

Since then the support from FieldAware has virtually disappeared and 3Plenish have been close to useless.

I use this software on a daily basis for my job. After the recent set of updates it has improved it hugely.

They never delivered what was asked of them. When I tried to break the contract, because I was not receiving what was promised, the threatened to sue me.

It is goos and easy to use software. It help to organise operation.

It's easy to sort through the customers with the search feature, and the itemizer allows our techs to better organize our parts cost.

Customer service is not consistent on there advise. Setting up the software to track key customer information is difficult, and report design is very limited.

The technical help is immediate and effective.

They fix one problem with sync and another arises.

FieldAware has been an extremely stable and reliable platform for us, functioning without fail and providing good standard features. But I am particularly happy with the ability to customize fields.

FieldAware is visually easy to read, quick to dispatch and the setup and implementation is quick.

The road-map process for new feature requests can be vague at times.

Overall, fieldaware has been a great fit for our company.

The mobile app is very user friendly and works good. The price book is very easy to set up.

The software WHEN it works is good, adding photos into job sheets is easy and creating job sheets on the fly is good.

Ease of use, pictures, and operation. Dispatching was smooth and reports are good.

The inability to get Field Locate to  SYNCH with Quick Books is a major disappointment for our administrative staff and management. This very feature was a major part of my purchasing decision.

FieldAware makes it easy to manage field crews.

Reporting is very limited, Customer service is quite bad.

Poor integration options. Not modeled to improve field performance in ways you might expect from typical service management software.

It doesn't work properly and the support is terrible.

The scheduler itself is really handy and a great way to keep an eye on who is where.

Outstanding- will help create the system specific to our business. Continuous Upgrading the system.

They are willing to help you and your business any way possible to make this product work for your company. The mobility of the product is the very best.

No default tax setting, and difficult to carry out some requests with the ipad version.

When we first implemented this program we discovered very quickly how limited this program is.

The software could be great if managed correctly but their back office team have no care about customer service.

I like this app and was first introduced to it when I joined a technical support team. It is fast and reliable and has a nice interface which is easy to navigate.

I liked it because it has this great feature of integration with other software like google drive.

Love that it's user friendly and was very easy to set up. It is real easy to communicate with other team members.

Slack is refined, clean, and very user friendly. It integrates with many other tools in our stack and always offers a great experience.

The different channels help to keep conversations organized. The fun features make this instant messaging fun and add flair.

When te connection is down, the messages stay grey and after some minutes, they fail, so sometimes the internet connection come back and those failed messages are sent after the previous ones.

Overall, I'd say that once a company is used to the mechanisms and abilities of slack, it has the potential to do a lot of good. Once comfortable with it, it is quite efficient and enjoyable.

The best thing about Slack is the ease of use and the ability to communicate quickly and effectively across multiple teams/projects.

I love the feature that allows you to pin links to the header of a channel making it easy for others to access certain documents. In addition,  The Slackbot is a great help tool.

It's really useful, practical and easy to use. Great way to communicate and even fun because you can add your own emogi and use giphy.

It is super user friendly and able to navigate through the platform with ease. It has been money well spent and has helped our business flourish.

I recommend it to everyone I know. More people should use it! perhaps invest more on marketing so that it is more popular among crowds.

The best thing about this software is its easy to use and very useful functions. I love being able to select groups to notify or send announcements easy, essentially getting rid of email.

The only thing that I dislike is that I can easily get distracted by the notifications.

What is nice about slack is that you can have multiple channels based on what the communities interests are and that tagging people in messaging is really helpful.

After working in companies that used popular but non ideal instant messaging apps, having a solution as Slack for messaging the team is a lifesaver.

This software is the best source of communication because here are chatting opportunity is always free and reliable.

Allows superb enterprise-level communication. Integrates with other software seamlessly and allows productivity to be maximized.

It has been a great experience, and customer service is helpful and friendly. It is the perfect software to keep in touch given the difficulties of 2020.

Overall it's good, fast and very user friendly once you start using it you will love this app.

Webhooks are incredibly useful. Custom emojis are great for teams to develop a fun atmosphere.

From keeping message history to other basic necessities, Slack charged for a lot of it. Comparing it to Discord, it cannot compete.

Super light and easy to use interface. Integration services with Google apps (Calendar, Sheets, etc) are excellent and seamlessly integrated into the conversations.

I love the look and how it is comfortable in the eyes. Functional in all aspects especially the integration with other apps that we use like Time Doctor and Asana.

You can easily confuse groups your in and comment something to the wrong team ( I've done it on many occasions) and confused the heck out of some coworkers.

Slack is a cloud-based project collaboration and team interaction tool designed to facilitate communication across organizations. The solution caters to various industries, including media, research, technology, education, financial services, retail, transport, and logistics.


Slack provides public channels for members across organizations to start conversations. Private channels enable interaction within smaller teams, and direct channels help send messages directly to colleagues.


Slack incorporates feeds from social media into the application and blends them with ongoing conversations in various channels. Files such as PDFs, images, documents, and spreadsheets can be shared via drag and drop.


Slack archives messages, notifications, files (as well as the contents of files) and projects, all of which can be searched for later. Slack allows users to customize their notifications and reduce their scope. All changes are reflected in the native applications available for iOS and Android.
