SANTA CLARA, Calif. – July 14, 2009 – ServiceMax, Inc. a leading provider of on-demand field service solutions, today introduced a new version of its flagship product, ServiceMax Suite. Available immediately, the new release extends the power, flexibility and ease of use of the company’s proven solution, already used by many organizations for post-sales service, field service and strategic service chain management. To see the new ServiceMax Suite in action, attend a webinar on Wednesday, August 5.
Field Service organizations are hidden gems in many organizations. With streamlined operations, they can significantly lower costs, increase revenues and improve customer service. Though technology solutions aimed at Sales, Marketing, and Service Call Centers have delivered the benefits of cloud computing for a decade, Field Service teams have been largely left behind. Until recently they’ve relied on cobbled together spreadsheets, narrow point solutions, or archaic on-premise solutions like SAP and Oracle, which cannot meet their complex needs.
“ServiceMax is truly revolutionizing field service; we streamline complex processes and give visibility to critical information service teams need. Finally Field Service organizations can increase revenue and improve service simultaneously” said Dave Yarnold, CEO, ServiceMax. “Because ServiceMax is built on the proven Force.com platform, we’re able to deliver unprecedented functionality in a complete on-demand suite of applications – specifically designed to optimize field service operations – at an amazingly affordable cost.”
ServiceMax Suite offers world-class reliability and complete field service functionality in a software-as-a-service model, so organizations can deploy the easy-to-use solution in days, with a minimal investment and low-cost subscription fees. In addition, customers can extend field service optimization to their partners via an on-demand portal, which is impossible with on-premise solutions.
