Hi Tara, Many thanks for your feedback. We greatly appreciate it! Kind regards, Team AroFlo
Great product and great support!
Comments: The setup support was phenomenal, as has been the on-going support from the team. I love that I can ring or chat live with someone and they can jump into the quote/task/project I am working on and tell me exactly why what I am trying to do isn't working! Everyone I have spoken to on the team has been extremely knowledgeable.
Pros:
Back-costing projects. Setting up assemblies, inventory materials with labour and description templates make quoting so much faster. Love the flexibility of what the client can see in a quote or invoice.
Cons:
Invoices from nearly all our suppliers need to be manually entered against POs. Would be great to be able to email clients directly from a Project. If typing an email it would be useful to be able to leave the email open whilst still navigating around AroFlo in the background (eg to upload an attachment, or view data, view a photo).

Hi Felicity, Thank you for your kind words related to our Customer Support team. This is wonderful feedback and we're glad we can be of service. Many thanks for your additional honest and constructive feedback. Kind regards, Team AroFlo
Aroflo - less than average
Pros:
The concept is good, it would be great if Aroflo could smoothly achieve all the functions offered and the software wasn't so problematic and onerous to use.
Cons:
Everything about the delivery Sales and support teams claims about Aroflos capabilities are questionable and less than forthright High implementation costs and resource requirements for set up Doesn't fully integrate with Xero, Aroflo are aware of this however still haven't highlighted this on their website No refunds if Aroflo doesn't meet your requirements, Aroflo will say this is due to high training costs No option to trial Aroflo, in hindsight this should ring alarm bells

Thank you for your anonymous review. If we could identify your AroFlo account I’m sure we could have addressed some of the issues you have raised. AroFlo has a huge range of capabilities so we can’t cover every aspect of the system in our sales demos. We can only focus on things that are brought to our attention by the client during the demonstration. If a specific business requirement is raised that our system can’t address, we’re always 100% honest about it and don’t make any false promises. It’s counterproductive to sell our system to unsuitable clients as we have no lock-in contracts so clients can cancel at any time. We do actually offer a trial of our software but our preference is to always take prospective clients through the software first as it is incredibly feature rich. AroFlo does fully integrate with Xero but I believe you referring to our system’s previous inability to handle supplier credits. This enhancement has now been released and more information can be viewed here https://tinyurl.com/y88bv99j. Further clarification on our Xero integration and a table outlining the data we push and pull between the two systems can be viewed at http://aroflo.com/features/xero-integration/
Excellent choice for service management
Comments: AroFlo is our core system and manages everything from our asset tracking, job scheduling, location and client information to client communication, invoicing, quotes and document storage.
Pros:
Cloud based, easy to use platform for desktop PCs and mobile app. Development team actively improves the software with regular updates. Safe and secure storage of data. Customer support is readily available. Designed with a flexible import/export functionality which works with other systems - for example we use another application for our route management and are able to export daily run sheet information from AroFlo to csv and import it to the other software without much trouble. The flexible design of this system makes it easy with customisation for a variety of industries. For our purposes AroFlo ticks all the boxes we need without even using half of the features. The mobile app is easy enough for our technicians to use allowing them to record job details, asset information and attach photos in the field.
Cons:
There are some convenience changes that would be good for the way we use AroFlo. Such as changing a location and all assets to a new client. We currently have to manually move each asset and the location to a new client whenever this happens, it would be great if there was a faster and easier way to transfer all of these details.
Alternatives Considered:
Aroflo Field Service Software
Comments: Overall, Aroflo is easy to use and does most things we need. There are a couple of pain points. If these were addressed Aroflo would score 5 out 5 stars instead of 4. The development team appear to be resistant to suggestions not high on their importance list.
Pros:
Aroflo has many features including quoting, work orders, mobile field application and integrates seamlessly with MYOB and Zero. Compared to similar products, pricing is very reasonable.
Cons:
Resistance to act on feature enhancement requests.
