Pros:

Cusomee service is top notch. Even when the questions seem silly they still take the time to help and explain! I also live the ease of use, I still have some learning to do but for the most part it makes day to day managament that much smoother. It's helpful in keeping track of technicians throughout the day and give a better estimate to clients when they ask.

Cons:

The fact that I never have enough time to learn it all. There are so many helpful videos, I just need to take the time to work through them.

Reasons for choosing Skimmer

Skimmers ease of use and setup were an appeal. Also, the price of Skimmer at the time was more reasonable.

Vendor Response

Hi Ralynne! Thanks for the kind words! We’re really glad Skimmer’s helping make your day-to-day smoother and giving you better visibility into your team out in the field. Totally get the feeling of “there’s so much to learn.” The good news is you don’t need to master it all at once, and our support team is always here if you want a quick walkthrough of anything. Really appreciate you choosing Skimmer and growing your family business with us!

Leaving Skimmer

Professional Pool & Spa Service: Longtime Skimmer user and IM LEAVING! Been using Skimmer for some time, I even invoiced through skimmer at one point. Then skimmer got greedy $$$$. Why would I want to text my clients from the Skimmer app, I get free text on my phone! Now I've been told my per pool monthly fee is going from $1 to $2 a 100% rise, guess what Skimmer, NO ITS NOT! I have just signed with www.poolservice.software. I used this program today on my route and its impressive, I'm putting all my clients (129) over to PSS.

Pros:

Cons:

Price rise of 100%. Slow to update after each entry. Cant run on multiple devices. They keep adding stuff that is not relevant, it is complicating and crowding what was a perfect app. If I need to text a clients I'll do it on my phone, Skimmer charges for each text. GREEDY $

Vendor Response

Bob, we're sad to see you go. We pride ourselves on providing value, and the $1 option is still available if you'd like to come back. We can also discuss lower contracted rates. Feel free to email us at sales@getskimmer.com if you'd like to discuss!

Exactly what we needed.

My overall experience with Skimmer has been outstanding. We use it daily to manage our service routes, create and send invoices, generate quotes, and keep our business organized in one streamlined system. The platform is extremely user friendly, and whenever I’ve had questions, the help videos, blog resources, and support tools have made it easy to find answers quickly. Since switching to Skimmer, our scheduling is more efficient, our communication with customers has improved, and our overall workflow is more organized. It has truly been a game changer for our business and is now an essential part of our daily operations. I highly recommend it to any pool service company looking to grow and stay organized.

Pros:

I’ve used the platform for over four years now, one of my favorite features would have to be the versatility in the field with the admin capabilities, creating work orders adding new customers.

Cons:

Minor issues with the billing, I would like to be able to invoice right from any work order and be able to have the system know if the client is auto pay available or not. Having to set up a specific work order to draw auto pay can be time consuming and difficult for different customers.

Reasons for choosing Skimmer

The interface of skimmer is user friendly, the other software was like running in circles just to get a guy on the schedule, the techs in the field hated it

Thanks for the great review, Ryan! We'll get your feedback to our product team!

I’m big on looking professional and Skimmer has the most professional interface for users and customers. The overall value for money spent is well worth it!

I’d just like to be able to see all stops for all days on the same map and be able to route. Maybe that’s something that can be done already, I’m just unaware.

Reasons for choosing Skimmer

User interface and ease of use. The follow portions for customers are top tier compared to other programs from what I’ve found.

Hi Matthew! Thanks for the great review! We’re glad Skimmer helps you present a professional experience for both you and your customers.
