SouthWare is ideally suited for the Equipment Rental and Service industry, combining all the functions of operating an Equipment Rental and Service company with unique customer service software.

Rental Contracts and Service Orders are the heart of your service business. You need the ability to check inventory, past purchases, and pricing. You need to take your customer requests quickly, schedule the service call, assign and dispatch the technician and bill promptly and accurately.

Rental Department allows you to quickly create a rental contract, add inventory items, services, or other types of line items, track available items and identify items that are past due and handle various rental pricing structures with the system automatically figuring out which rental unit (hours, days, weeks, etc.) to use for each rental transaction.

The Graphical Dispatch Board shows each technician, the number of calls assigned, the service order numbers, and the priority assigned to each service order as well as all unassigned service orders. An optional preview pane at the bottom of the screen shows more detail of any highlighted service order. A pop-up menu allows you to quickly re-assign a service order to another technician. Next Day/Previous Day buttons allow you to easily review calls for surrounding days and the Multi-Day grid displays technician totals of scheduled hours for a 30 day time period.

Effectively managing your service contracts can be one of the biggest challenges your business faces. Service contracts tend to be complex, including pricing exceptions, different levels of coverage, and different billing cycles. With South Ware's Contract Management you have the tools to easily record, track, propose, renew, service, and bill your contracts accurately and efficiently.

You can keep track of all the important information about your equipment, your customer's equipment, equipment returned to the manufacturers, and equipment currently under repair. Equipment is constantly changing and moving. Accurate equipment records help you provide great service with the utmost efficiency.

Our clients value the ability to grow and match this system to their particular needs. Even among business in the same industry, different rules and practices evolve over time. SouthWare tools provide the ability to modify the programs to your business practices without custom programming and to match each user's needs by configuring menus, security, and styles from the data entry clerk to top executive.
