ServiceMax, a company that offers cloud-based mobile field service applications, announced today that it has secured a second round of funding for $14 million.
This piece of news out of the Field service industry, only serves to buffer what we have already been advocating for quite some time….namely, the importance of embracing mobile field service apps.for todays customers.
Let’s face it, we live in a ‘mobile’ society. The plethora of mobile devices, gadgets and gizmos flooding the market, all serve to enhance our lives and productivity by providing us with instant gratification solutions (via apps) to our every need.
Wanna know if it’s gonna snow in Ecuador 10 years from now in June? No problem! Check out this nifty little app which can extrapolate a statistically “accurate” result, based upon an algorithm written by a Harvard Law Grad, who doubles as a nature photog. in his spare time!
My point is, there are mobile apps today for EVERYTHING, created by EVERYONE and used by the WORLD.
- THE MOBILE CRAZE IS HERE TO STAY..
The Field Service Industry has been influenced tremendously by the growing appetite for mobile apps. which can help their clients streamline their businesses and increase revenues. The fact that many venture capital groups are willing to pour considerable financial resources into these projects, illustrates the explosive potential of this market for our industry!
When our CEO,
Ilan Slasky, saw the aforementioned news article, here is what he had to say:
“There is no question that mobile market has become an increasingly important driver of productivity and efficiency gains. This is why we at FieldOne have developed a cutting edge field service mobile app. for our discerning and loyal clients to offer them support where they need it most; in the field!
