PROS: If you are first- time user, the setting up correctly is straightforward. PM part, Proposal approval and invoice section work without issues. The system is rarely down so it makes it very functional. Support team is knowledgeable, fast and helpful.
CONS: If you want to edit any enquiry, the form is long with lots of space so you have to scroll through the screen to find the parts to be filled, so I think that they are designed from a person that never used this system, by him/her own wish. The Service Channel is from India and it is difficult to understand them, because of the accents. The e-mail service is slow too.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?
165 locations can be checked by only one person and without this Service Channel, it would take 2 to 3 employees. Repair and Maintenance requests are being processed clearly.
Are you a current user of this product?
Yes
PROS: It keeps the repair and maintenance issues organized so client, business and contractors can meet together in a single format and page, getting information of what is going on every time is something that I like and I find it helpful. It is a great program with lots of options and helpful reports. I like the Notes features too, because I use that every day to make a contact with the vendors and stores, helping to record the information.
CONS: I do not like the Service channel App because it needs to be revised, becoming user-friendly and to access information straightforward. I prefer to skip the app and go directly to the website, because I find it easier.
Easy to view and manage requests and get updates about your repair requests. You can have multiple vendors for each category which helps you get the best rates and quicker service. I like that I can set up a preferred vendor as well. There are tons of options for reports and analytics which as well.
Vendors have to choose to use Servicechannel and i have noticed that many smaller local vendors are reluctant to use. I've heard feedback that the onboarding and training process for vendors needs to be easier to allow for smaller vendors with less resources the ability to use servicechannel.
Take the time to go through the training offered and reach out to support with questions. Servicechannel provides great support and training when you need it
Follow up with vendors is easier and less time consuming. Gone are the days of having to call a vendor and ask for updates. I can even use the mobile app to log on and view upsated statuses and all my maintenance and repairs.
Ease of work order lookup. Simple to write and email notes. Can be integrated with other facilities software to auto accept orders.
Pauses in service. Sometimes the server gets busy. Need to delete cookies often.
Excellent for communication purposes and entering bids

The platform brings many different aspects together allowing for items and issues to be easily tracked, managed and reported on.
The proposal platform does not allow for notes between the vendor and customer to be collected and tracked.
It is a great tool to help streamline processes and communications.
The entire facilities program for 400+ retail locations is handled by SC and it has allowed us to improve our store management experience with the facilities and thus our overall customer experience with our brand.

Meeting others to collaborate on better formats I can use for my business, and trying to come up with a overall best practice for others.
As I attended the first conference in 2017 the anticipation was high, and it was a little disappointing to see some of the same things that was discussed before, are still in a "what do you think we should do" status than an actual resolution. Some things that were discussed were still not creating a easier process and still needed to be reviewed.
I would definitely recommend to any others to use because it can really make things simple, transparent, and manageable.
Service Channel has been a huge asset providing visibility to all in regards to our branches. It has helped us streamline and continue to streamline processes including and avenue to keep track of the Compliance of our Vendors, which is helpful to other departments within our company.

I like that the portal is easy to navigate, and I hardly have any issues with my techs checking in and out. It is always easy for my techs to navigate and upload pictures after completing a job.
I do not dislike anything. I feel like everything is easy to work with and the staff helps us when needed.
The service channel now has solved updating insurance paperwork right away. It makes everything easier
