See who’s available and who’s on-site at a glance

Whether you work solo or manage a small team, scheduling jobs and planning your diary can be a headache. Last-minute changes, misplaced job order details, schedule clashes and oversights can lead to delays in work and unsatisfied clients.

ToolTime gives you control over scheduling and makes it easy to respond to urgent requests. In the web version of our electrician software, you can view the whole team’s calendars and assign them jobs. ToolTime will even flag any schedule conflicts. You can also optimise your electrician’s routing in the map view to ensure your team isn’t wasting their time travelling between job locations.

When you've saved a job, the assigned electricians will immediately be notified in the mobile app and will see all job details, right on-site. Any changes will be instantly updated in both the mobile and web apps, so the whole team will know right away if there are any schedule changes.

You meet your team at the office to plan work for the day. You need to spend time going through new job orders, making sure to share all the information such as addresses and materials. This takes a lot of time, and leaves your electricians and customers waiting.

Everyone receives their job schedules for the day in the ToolTime mobile app. They can access the customer data, essential documents and job instructions without needing to go to the office.

The good news is that the phone is ringing non-stop with new job orders. The bad news is that you can’t stay on top of all the different requests. You’re frantically trying to write it all down. You realise a sheet of paper with another customer’s details on it is missing! It’s chaos.
With
You’re able to easily and securely store all job details from your customers using ToolTime - everything is added to the software and kept organised. All their contact information is easily accessible for when you need it. You’re able to accept all the jobs without being overwhelmed.

You need your on-site workers to properly log their work and send you before and after photos. They send these to a WhatsApp group but you easily miss some. You also find it a pain trying to find specific photos and connect them to the right job.

Your team logs their work in the ToolTime app - photos, digital signatures and notes are immediately visible to you in the office. You’re able to create invoices quickly, and send them to your customers with no hassle.

Even after a long day on-site, the work isn’t over. Your team has to deliver their paper timesheets to you in person and you need to manually enter them all into a spreadsheet.

On top of this, you notice that you’re missing a key document needed to finish a job. You’ll need to contact the client again tomorrow to make sure you can bill them properly. 
With
Everyone has completed their digital timesheets in the mobile app throughout the day, and all time entries are already there in the web version of ToolTime. All you need to do now is export and send to the payroll office and you can call it a day.
