Field service management is a priority for telecom, utility, property maintenance, health care and other service providers. Your ability to provide timely, professional field service to your customers is a vital part of your overall value proposition.

Field service refers to any work your organization performs on a client's property instead of your own. Some examples of this include:
Every business is different, but any organization that offers outside service knows that keeping both costs manageable and customers happy is a delicate balance. It isn't worth the investment in time or money if your customer is unsatisfied with the level of service they receive. At the same time, you cannot let field service affect your bottom line.
Field service management is a coordinated effort to make field service work for both you and your customers. It encompasses several things — fleet management, team efficiency, quality control and more. When done right, it will allow you to make smarter strategic decisions that help you go the extra mile for the people you serve — without breaking the bank.
"I use it daily to visualize customers and sales territories, and to plan sales trips. It’s so intuitive."

"I have had the pleasure of using MapBusinessOnline for the past 5 years and it is an excellent and affordable tool for my clients. I am a franchise consultant, and many of my clients are just starting to get into franchising. The first main question many of them have is they don’t know the demographics around their current location, so they don’t know how to create territories for their franchisees. I am able to easily utilize MapBusinessOnline to draw a prototype territory around their existing location, do a deep dive into the many different demographics that MapBusinessOnline offers, and help the client determine the basics of their new territories, including mileage, population, household count, purchasing habits and age distributions. This tool has been so helpful that many of our clients obtain their own accounts as they begin to sell franchises and grow their business. Thank you, MapBusinessOnline, for providing such a helpful tool that is affordable and easy to use!"
