Customer Portal from ERP/MRP/CRM Sector

There are various customer portals available from SM8 Partners, we have been exploring the possibility of creating a ServiceM8 Customer Portal from ERP/MRP/CRM sector. Why would we do this, I guess the short answer is because this is a feature not offered by ServiceM8 in its core offering and Add-Ons. And we believe that it is a critical functionality that can be required when ServiceM8 users become larger and work with more complex organisations, especially letting agents, property managers, and the NHS. What are we thinking about? In the first instance a simple web based portal that can: be registered, and accessed by large customers – unlimited users be fed real time by information entered into ServiceM8 show customers what stage their Jobs are at. allow customers to see, accept/decline changes to their Jobs allow ‘WhatsApp’ style communication against each Job Report Key Performance Indicator’s, initially, how many times Jobs have been rescheduled – by client and supplier The initial idea is that: MCoG ServiceM8 Customer Portal would be updated real time, using the ServiceM8 REST API. Pricing: Free Trial (View Only); and £31.99 per connected customer (allowing unlimited registered users). We will be exploring the idea and working on a minimum viable product during the first quarter of next year, if there is enough interest, beta system users will be signed up and further scoping carried out, with the aim of launching V1.0 in Q2 of 2022. Please see below initial screenshots/functionality of ServiceM8 Customer Portal from ERP/MRP/CRM sector.
Serviceguru Customer Portal

Serviceguru Customer Portal for ServiceM8 ServiceM8 does not have an inbuilt customer portal, which has created a clear opportunity for third party developers to create tools to improve the customer service element – when trades companies are dealing with larger clients like letting agents and property management businesses. Serviceguru customer portal aims to resolve this. We continually receive enquiries for customer portals from our clients and prospects. While we believe that ServiceM8 has incredible ‘inside the box’ capability – there are some times when a robust customer portal could add massive value to our clients operations. When customer portals would work:- Larger trades customers, with multiple customer service/account management teams Service focused trades customers – that offer out of hours support ServiceM8 clients that feel they are possibly outgrowing SM8 When customer portals will not work:- Small trades companies, offering more customer ‘control’ could increase admin/schedule changes When trades customers ask for a portal – however will never use it – because they continue to ‘pick up the phone!’ The trades company has not fully explored/utilised the out of the box ServiceM8 functionality and add-ons. The Serviceguru Customer Portal introduction video clearly shows how their add-on syncs with ServiceM8. The portal is competitively priced at £15.99, and even comes with a FREE 14 day trial – you can find out more about Serviceguru Customer Portal and other add-ons that are available from them and purchase online here. Alternative Customer Portals to Serviceguru: PortalMeIn from DDDesign; also check out our ServiceM8 Customer Portal early stage idea/proposal. —/— FREE Mini-Audit – are you are an existing user of ServiceM8 and think that you are not using the system to its full in your service business?
