What do you like best about Field Nation?

I love the ability to choose people that will fit best with my customer. It is also nice to be able to ask questions and receive multiple bids for the work I am trying to hire out for. It also give my company a local presence feel because I can speak with the tech prior to the work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Field Nation?

Sometimes peoples profiles are incorrect and there is a technology gap. Another issue is we take great care to price out the work that we need to do for our customers and when people are sending back bids it gives the impression that they dont value your time and effort into making sure a fair price is made.

Recommendations to others considering Field Nation:

Great product to use for small to medium businesses that dont have the financial backing to hire a full time employee Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Field Nation solving and how is that benefiting you?

Remote hands is a big problem in my business and with Field Nation I am able to bridge that gap, it is super nice to be able to specify exactly what you need on a job site and have these individuals go out plug you into the router/switch allow you to configure what you need to. A perfect example of this was my last job I used field nation for was we could not access a router and sent a field nation tech onsite, he was able to console cable me right into the router and within mins I fixed the issue and re established my remote connectivity. Something so simple for the tech to do but it was a pain point with the customer going on for weeks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Product Description

Field Nation is a labor marketplace for IT field service, connecting companies and skilled technicians to do great work across the nation.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

There are several ways to source IT field service labor. Most come with tradeoffs.

Full-time employees offer control over the customer experience because you can closely monitor the outcome. However, they’re costly to employ and travel costs can add up quickly.

Third-party subcontractors protect margins because costs are tied to utilization. They’re close to demand, eliminating travel costs. However, you lose visibility and control over who’s representing your brand, and quality may suffer.

Other labor marketplaces may offer access to technicians, but none compete with the breadth and depth of Field Nation.

What do you like best about Field Nation?

I like that you can post a job and easily find a tech to work on it. The templates are very nice because it makes it so easy to post a reoccurring job. You do have to be very detailed in the work orders but the templates help you do that! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Field Nation?

The team that we work with at Field Nation has been terrific and allowed for us to quickly start and provide value for our clients. We have used them for multiple projects from a new office buildout in Phoenix to cabling in Worcester. We were able to find background checked and vetted technicians across the country to allow for our team to provide services to our clients and expand our capabilities for our clientele. The website is extremely easy to use and setting up a work order and finding skilled technicians was done quickly. Work was done professionally and at a better rate than if we went direct to local sources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Field Nation?

Instead of spending hours trying to find Techs for my installations, I put out the Work Orders and, sometimes within minutes, the Tech's contact me!

They also have great support to help during the learning process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Field Nation?

I understand why they take a % of the money paid to the Tech, but I don't underestand why they take a % of the cost of the equipment the Tech is asked to provide for the job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Field Nation solving and how is that benefiting you?

Field Nation makes is so much easier for me to find Tech's to do installations and provides ratings etc so I can choose the best one for the job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Field Nation?

Field Nation has resources throughout all of the states and makes finding a local technical resource quick and easy. With the availability of these resources, we can quickly deploy a field tech to any site throughout the states without travel expenses or time lost. The platform is easy to use and gives the user the opportunity to vet the local resource by looking at historical data as well as technical accumen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Field Nation?

Not all technical resources on the site match the resume and technical abilities that they list on their profile. There is no way for Field Nation to verify the information the technician posts, so this is not a Field Nation problem, but it can cause some issues in the field when you get a resource that does not have the skils that they advertised. Dealing with different technicians daily can be frustrating if you get people who have Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Field Nation?

With over 20 years in the managed services industry, I've used numerous labor platforms to deliver break-fix and project work for companies of all sizes, from small businesses to large enterprises. The Field Nation Marketplace stands out as the easiest platform to use, the fastest in finding qualified technicians, and the best for achieving strong customer outcomes.

Several features make Field Nation essential for managing our workload. The updated Match 2.0 uses smart technology to quickly connect us with skilled professionals, making it simpler than ever to assign qualified technicians to our projects. The platform’s Push/Pull integration with Smartsheets streamlines our data management, while Talent Pools allow us to group proven technicians for future needs. Additionally, the ability to define TASKs within work orders provides a clear roadmap for technicians, ensuring that every job meets our standards and delivers the data we need for thorough customer reporting.

Field Nation is an invaluable tool for delivering reliable, high-quality service. Its powerful features help us achieve consistency and efficiency, ultimately driving better results for our customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Field Nation?

Field Nation has great tools, however they are missing one that would help grow their break-fix work with enterprise level customers. The ability to manage inventory/warehouse parts and trunk stock for technicians. The ability to get fast and accurate tracking updates when part are delivered to the customers.

The platform fees can add up, especially for frequent users managing multiple projects.
