The option to access important customer information allows us to know the needs and to address their concerns more easily, the portal to manage inventory, perform monitoring of work orders, and a complete management of guarantees also comes with the package purchased, the options for maintenance work are also very complete is what I like most of the program, Jira and Salesforce integration are excellent.

**What do you dislike about ServiceMax?**

The mobile application needs more work, I'm left with the experience in the desktop option, the application for small businesses is not recommended, I see it more to manage medium and large companies, the online support leaves much to be desired I recommend at all times if you have any concerns with the service make a phone call, they are friendly.

**What problems is ServiceMax solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use the service to address important customer concerns, it also allows us to look at the contracts we have with them and address them in order of priority. Since its installation, it has been an excellent ally for administrative solutions, monitoring, work orders, and equpment maintenance tasks. In the planning area, those complex tasks have ceased to be a problem since the acquisition, the reports and metrics obtained are very good, and we use them daily.

With ServiceMax we have been able to classify and maintain oreder in our work management in the area of biling and inventory management has been very effective which helpsnus a lot to maintain positive connection with our customers because within this interface there is also the function of self-service in certain areas thus facilitating the manual work and we can focus on other functions that require more time, no doubt ServiceMax has been the best service management interface that we have implemented within the company.
