ServiceMax is excellent for incident, logistics and field service task management. I am in love with ServiceMax new offline mobile solution as it is a great fit for our need.
  Dealing with the support team behind Service Max has been a positive development. We always stay in touch with Service Max local Customer Satisfaction manager,he is always open to feedback. This makes us believe the team behind this great program always want to hear what we have to say and will use that to make this product better.

As great as this program is, it lacks advanced guide resource for users ; which is sad to note.

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 26, 2017

**What do you like best about ServiceMax?**

Zinc's redeeming qualities were that it usually worked and they had really friendly support staff. From a higher level perspective, we appreciated that they were willing to agree to HIPAA compliance, which was important for us and our clients.

**What do you dislike about ServiceMax?**

We had several events where the entire system would go down when we made changes to our team. The apps were mediocre at best (they were clearly based off of webkit/chromium) and the admin panel was lacking in a lot of ways. 

**Recommendations to others considering ServiceMax:**

I don't recommend this product unless you don't mind being a beta tester while this company tries to come up with a solid vision for their company. The name of the product changed at least once during the time our company was using it.

**What problems is ServiceMax solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It was previously our chat client throughout our office. It was a mission-critical part of our company because it was the primary way we communicated with one another

We like that it is built on the SFDC platform and therefore our Field service can collaborate with our SAles

We don't like the fact that Field Service report is not easily edited, it's very difficult to make changes and the layout itself cannot be changed by an Admin

Problems we have solved are the logging and tracking of where and when our field Service Reps are going and which customers they are at when. Previously the managers did not have visibilty to any of that info.

**What do you like best about ServiceMax?**

I believe the best pro for FieldFX is the versatility.

**What do you dislike about ServiceMax?**

Out of the box, the product lacks features that would be beneficial to the targeted industry. While the Salesforce platform is relatively easy to work with, there are limitations that wouldn't be present in a custom platform.

**Recommendations to others considering ServiceMax:**

Clearly define your expectations and requirements prior to deciding on this software and before implementing. Involve both business and technical resources in the contract process for a clearly defined statement of work. Additionally, build resources for regular maintenance and administration into your business case and budget.

**What problems is ServiceMax solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Consistency, tracking, and organization of work orders and billing for field tickets. The largest benefit is the visibility and accuracy of the data.

  ### 17. It was okay, I guess 

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Facilities Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 25, 2017

**What do you like best about ServiceMax?**

It was easy to navigate but it wasn’t set up in an effective way

**What do you dislike about ServiceMax?**

You really had to learn the system before jumping in. Cause it didn’t make sense right away

**What problems is ServiceMax solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It holds all your information but wasn’t what my company needed. We switched to Salesforce

  ### 18. ServiceMax Consultant

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 08, 2017

**What do you like best about ServiceMax?**

The platform was simple to configure. As with other applications on force.com ServiceMax didn't provide extensive guides to implementing. 

**What do you dislike about ServiceMax?**

The lack of advanced guides for implementation. Another issue is the lack of customization one has with third party applications on force.com

**What problems is ServiceMax solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Advanced scheduling was a big issue with my client. The ability to send out engineers based on skills, experience, etc, their old legacy system couldn't provide this complex automation. 

  ### 19. An ok field service supervisor as a software.

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Meenakshi B. | Consultant, Management Consulting, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2016

**What do you like best about ServiceMax?**

One of the good things about ServiceMax is its ease of understanding and ease of usage. ServiceMax portable parts permit tech to redesign the framework amid every call. It consolidates two databases into one permitting deals and administration gets to be one to have rights to the database and makes the entire workflow systematic.

**What do you dislike about ServiceMax?**

It is difficult to control and convey. Sometimes we have faced some perplexity with regard to evaluations, ServiceMax couldn't distinguish that we were not a solid match, so a considerable measure of time and cash were squandered.

**What problems is ServiceMax solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Some of the areas where ServiceMax has proven really helpful are:
Trying to consolidate two distinct databases and make the two elements (deals and administration) one substance. 
Fleet administration, RMA process attempting to move all our backings applications to one stage. 
Field administration mechanization and combination to ERP applications for uncovering items.

  ### 20. Technical Services Supervisor

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Lyle W. | Technical Services Supervisor, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 25, 2016

**What do you like best about ServiceMax?**

It's flexibility, it has been relatively easy to adapt ServiceMax to fit the specific needs of our business model.  

**What do you dislike about ServiceMax?**

I would like it if the report generating features were a bit more robust.  It is possible to generate most reports, but sometimes it would be nice to be able to use some of the same features that Excel uses in generating reports.

**Recommendations to others considering ServiceMax:**

We looked at several options when we decided to move from our custom built database to an off the shelf product.  Our company was already using Salesforce and the easy integration of ServiceMax with Salesforce made it the obvious choice.

**What problems is ServiceMax solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We mainly use ServiceMax for case management.  We have been able to create reports for our clients using the information we are entering to show them our value.

  ### 21. Support Coordinator's work life made easier with the use of ServiceMax

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Biotechnology | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 31, 2016

**What do you like best about ServiceMax?**

No more missed PM's with ServiceMax.  It's great that the service contracts can be set up once the PO comes in and be future scheduled in the system without having to worry.  The PM plan will automatically issue a case and work order for the assigned FSE before the date of the PM site visit.

**What do you dislike about ServiceMax?**

It's not that easy to design reports.  One has to know which tables to link and which fields to pull to get a meaningful report.

**Recommendations to others considering ServiceMax:**

We've not yet turned on all the features that this product is capable of.  The FSE's will get iPads to have the end users sign off on service reports live while they're still on site.  We have a separate ERP system but we do use some spares inventory planning and spares part order functionality through ServiceMax.  

**What problems is ServiceMax solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It's easy to future schedule PM visits.  The system automatically schedules cases and work orders once the PM plan has been set up in the system.  I like that we can set up queues and e-mail lists for internal groups, notifying folks of when it's their turn to process their piece of the work flow.

  ### 22. ServiceMax Implementations

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Frank V. | Technical Architect, Information Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 31, 2016

**What do you like best about ServiceMax?**

The software is very flexible and adapts easily to a lot of different flavors of the service industry.

**What do you dislike about ServiceMax?**

There are a few features often needed by customers that are not provided out of the box, and customization is needed.

**Recommendations to others considering ServiceMax:**

ServiceMax is doing a great job of focusing on the Field Service Business community, taking time to really understand their business needs and value drivers and I feel like this will continue to distinguish them as the leader in this space.

**What problems is ServiceMax solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We have successfully implemented ServiceMax for several different companies, mostly automating old processes, allowing for a more remote technician workforce, and various other problems.

  ### 23. 4 years business systems programme delivery using ServiceMax

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Medical Devices | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 25, 2016

**What do you like best about ServiceMax?**

ServiceMax is excellent for incident, logistics and field service task management. It's new offline mobile solution is a great leap forward and is perfect for our needs (500 field service engineers globally in sites without Internet). It's new partnership with Apple is ensuring the mobile development is now also being done with a lot of care to an intuitive interface, as well as being very feature rich. This is also going to extend to use of many of the built in IOS features.   They also have great connectivity with other systems -  are also progressing to automated incident creation, moving towards an IOT model - ServiceMax (together with ThinkWorks) can deliver the goods. 

In general, we find dealing with ServiceMax as an organisation very positive. We have regular reviews with our local ServiceMax Customer Satisfaction manager, we contribute to road map requirements and provide a great level of service. 

**What do you dislike about ServiceMax?**

It does require tight business process analysis, as part of deployment, due to the inherent flexibility of the system, which allows localised configuration at all levels. The resource scheduler could also be improved - it is being looked at, but is still a little clunky with regard to the interface. Knowledge management/integration could also be an  improved feature. We use Salesforce knowledge, which is very tricky to integrate with the ServiceMax mobile solution, with no viable alternative.  In terms of Service usability, this is key and should be part of the whole ServiceMax solution.   

**Recommendations to others considering ServiceMax:**

Make sure that you are very clear on what your business processes are and what you need them to be. This should be done before any design work is done on your ServiceMax solution - the solution should be designed to do what your business needs it to do, it is not a solution in itself. 

**What problems is ServiceMax solving and how is that benefiting you?**

FSR efficiency improvements, by improving workflow and moving away from a paper based solution - this is being realised with the ServiceMax mobile solution, to the extend of 1/2 million pounds /yr.  

  ### 24. Scheduling Nationwide Techs

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Insurance | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 26, 2016

**What do you like best about ServiceMax?**

The work orders customizations and the visual representation of techs in the Dispatch Console. Reporting capabilities are also very useful and easy to use. 

**What do you dislike about ServiceMax?**

No ability to plot techs and work orders from the Dispatch Console-  the map uses Google Maps so should have the ability to show travel time and miles. Not having this feature causes the users to have to go out of the Console to complete scheduling a tech. .

**What problems is ServiceMax solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The reporting that can be pulled from Servicemax is very helpful in tracking success metrics which has helped to make us more efficient and able to have insight on where improvements can be made. 

  ### 25. ServiceMAX for field service deployment, tracking and management

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Junyang X. | Manufacturing Technology Group Manager/Lead, Wireless, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

Very great interface for reporting structure and dashboards for regular reporting at a cross-functional level.

**What do you dislike about ServiceMax?**

Needs easier interfacing with existing databases, as well as more customization allowing for custom fields.

**What problems is ServiceMax solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use ServiceMAX to tracking our field service repair, both in tracking and allowing easier paretos, and creating dashboards to review service center performance over time.

  ### 26. Good product with extensive capabilities

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Medical Devices | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 26, 2016

**What do you like best about ServiceMax?**

Adoption of new technology and comprehensive list of functionality. Solution has a mobile component for field service use on tablet or pc devices.

**What do you dislike about ServiceMax?**

Features are not as configurable in some areas to meet our needs and there is no capability to enable/disable functionality that we do not want. Sometines difficult to understand upcoming changes  and adopt them.

**What problems is ServiceMax solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Use of mobile to enforce data integrity and real time reporting for the business. Improved workflows that guide the users and simplify it's use for them whilst also maintaining data integrity in the background.

Native SFDC mobile field ticketing that makes it easy for oilfield end users to capture and return data. This product will change multiple departments within any company that implements.Field FX. Cross functional teams will do best when implementing because the breadth is so wide. 

The implementation forces you to look at the entire process of operations and back end office functions and allows for them to be optimized during implementation.

There isn't anything to dislike about this app except no built in mobile device management for the fleet of mobile devices required.

**What do you like best about ServiceMax?**

The ServiceMax mobile component allows tech's to update the system during each call.  Also with automated workflows and alert notifications exposing when you are getting close to an SLA commitment target, allows clients to react and respond quickly - they can leverage the dispatch tool which is also integrated with google maps so that service reps can see where a tech is, how many calls are left, and can determine who to reassign to the higher priority item - the SLA alert

**What do you dislike about ServiceMax?**

There is nothing to dislike - of course you have security issues when you choose to move field service into the cloud but ServiceMax is built on Salesforce.com and leverages the same security admin functionality so you can choose what data to expose to what groups or individual persons.

**What problems is ServiceMax solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Field service automation and integration to ERP applications for exposing products, pricing, inventory, contracts and entitlements, accounts, contacts, etc.

It combines two databases into one allowing sales and service become one database and gives the entire workflow one platform to work from.
