Introduction to Field Service Management

Field Service Management in Freshdesk

Businesses that offer products and services to their customers often run into problems that demand on-site services from a technician. Not always, though, are support agents aligned to field technicians, causing delays, assignment hurdles, lack of insight into the job itself - all leading to sloppy customer support. With Freshdesk’s field service management software, plan your field technicians' schedules, pass on customer information to them and live-track progress as they solve problems on-site.
