CRM software built for home service businesses

Know who’s calling and what happened on the last visit. Podium keeps customer conversations and service history connected to the jobs your team runs, with equipment details ready for the technician before they arrive.

Customer records

Give your team the history behind every customer

When a customer calls back, your office can see what was discussed and what work has already been done. Customer information stays with the record as different people on your team handle the next step.

Conversations with context

Find previous calls, texts, and notes without asking the customer to repeat themselves. Your AI employee, Larry, uses customer history to bring context to the next conversation.

Service history in the field

Technicians can review previous visits and job notes from their phones. They can see what the customer has already been told before knocking on the door.

Properties and equipment

Know what’s at the property before you send a truck

Keep equipment details attached to the property where the work happens. Search by address from Contacts and open the property record without leaving your workflow.

Equipment records

Record details such as serial numbers, filter sizes, refrigerant types, and equipment status. Technicians can review the equipment tied to the job before the visit.

Property history

See prior appointments and notes for the property. When a customer needs another repair, your team has the earlier work in front of them.

Connected field service

Keep the customer record connected to the job

Podium’s CRM capabilities are built into Podium FSM. The information your office captures stays connected as the job moves onto the schedule and out to the field. Technicians can review customer details, build an estimate, and send an invoice from the mobile app.

Follow-up

Give the next conversation a reason

See previous work and open estimates so your team knows what to discuss when reaching out. Podium finds estimates that need attention and starts the follow-up. For seasonal maintenance outreach, the AI Membership Coordinator contacts members who are due, checks availability, and books the visit.

Multiple locations

Keep each location’s work organized

Run multiple locations from one Podium account. Jobs, technicians, schedules, and members stay organized by location, with a view of the business from one place.

Switching to Podium

Bring your customer history with you

Podium’s onboarding team helps move your customer records and job history into the new system. Before the move, your onboarding contact reviews the data available from your current software and confirms what can transfer.

Your office and field teams get training as part of implementation.
