Instant Access to Data and Records

Field engineers need instant access to customer histories and past service records to diagnose issues quickly and deliver efficient solutions. Without a centralized system, technicians may struggle with incomplete information, leading to delays in troubleshooting and repeated service visits. Claris FileMaker provides a powerful solution by equipping field engineers with iPads that display detailed customer data, past site visits, and previous problem resolutions—ensuring faster, more informed service.

The Importance of Accessing Customer Histories in the Field

When field engineers arrive on-site, having a full view of a customer’s service history can make the difference between a quick fix and an extended, costly repair. Key details such as previous issues, maintenance history, and past resolutions help technicians:

  • Diagnose problems faster by identifying recurring issues.

  • Reduce service redundancies by ensuring previous solutions are referenced and applied.

  • Improve customer satisfaction by demonstrating an understanding of past service interactions.

Without immediate access to this information, engineers may waste time searching for records or risk making incomplete repairs, leading to follow-up visits and increased operational costs.
