What's New in Podium

Property search on contacts

Search for properties by address directly from the Contacts page. Find a contact or a property from the same search bar and open the property sheet right inline. No more navigating away mid-workflow.

Restrict tech calendar visibility

Account owners can now control whether technicians see other techs' calendars. Toggle the permission in Settings under Users, Roles and Permissions, Technician. Keep individual schedules private without locking down dispatch.

Tech time tracking on jobs

Technicians can now log their working status directly against a job from the mobile app: on the way, working, getting parts, on break, or done for the day. Every status gets timestamped and rolled up on the job so office staff can see exactly when work happened. Admins can edit entries, adjust hourly rates for after-hours work, and add time on behalf of other techs who worked the same job.

Edit property address from details or job

Fix a wrong address without leaving your workflow. From any property or job, open the Details tab, click edit on the address, make the change, and save. You can also swap out the property entirely or add a new one directly from the job if the work is at a different location.

Job details now available in the side panel

Job details now show as a tab directly in the job panel. Click the Details tab to view and edit job info without opening the full job record. Name, customer, address, job type, technician, and more, all accessible right where you're already working.

Agenda calendar view

A new dispatch-grid style calendar view that gives each technician their own row across the full week. Jobs appear as boxes sorted by time so you can see everyone's schedule at a glance. Built for any team that prefers a grid layout over a traditional calendar.
