Comments on the News
"Leveraging the power and flexibility of cloud computing, OneRoof Energy has turned to ClickSoftware to quickly mobilize the organization and take its customer experience management to new heights," said Udi Keidar, Vice President of Cloud Services at ClickSoftware. "ClickWorkforce on the Salesforce AppExchange makes it easy to centrally manage and synchronize customer relationship activities no matter how expansive the customer base or high-volume or complex the work requests."

Historically, OneRoof Energy conducted laborious, manual scheduling of sales visits to homeowners using internal tools but in time outgrew the homegrown solution as its sales team quickly grew. ClickSoftware's rapid cloud deployment rolled out in a matter of days with onboarding support provided by partner Asperii. Now, with ClickWorkforce, call center representatives simply create a task in Salesforce and press the "Get Appointment" button, which then provides an accurate listing of available customer appointment time slots. The solution intelligently schedules energy consultants based on real-time events and availability.

"ClickSoftware helps us to optimize our mobile workforce performance and customer experience by harnessing the power of social and mobile cloud technologies," said Hussein Yahfoufi, vice president of technology at OneRoof Energy. "As a partner, ClickSoftware has provided unparalleled service, met all of our business requirements and stood out from the crowd with a superior technology offering. Now we can provide a same-day response to appointment requests, and more easily assign and route field resources."
