Banner year for field service management software leader as revenues soar  

PETACH-TIKVA, Israel and BURLINGTON, Massachusetts, March 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- ClickSoftware, a leading provider of field service management software, today shared a series of recent accomplishments as it extended its category leadership across key verticals. Click achieved four record quarters on top and bottom line, a record number of customer wins, and more than 100 percent growth in bookings from Click's cloud-based platform, Click Field Service Edge.

Highlights for the year included:

  • New customers, new connections:
    • The past four quarters saw ClickSoftware deliver hundreds of successful customer projects, with many new customers taking advantage of Click's rapid implementation methodology, FAST. Click welcomed customers in established verticals, such as telecommunications (Shaw, Telecentro, NOS) and utilities (Welsh Water, Ameren, Essential), as well as customers from other industries with a growing interest in field service management including Marathon Oil and Mitie.
    • Click hosted ClickConnect - its largest user conference ever - drawing a global audience to Miami Beach to discuss issues, opportunities and best practices across the service industry.
  • Industry recognition: Several analysts recognized ClickSoftware's industry leadership:
  • Customer Satisfaction:
    • 2018 saw increased investment from Click in customer support and customer success functions resulting in a significant increase in customer satisfaction and a reported decrease in "customer effort".
    • Click remains uniquely positioned to help customers get the highest return on their field service management investment by also increasing the size of the optimization services team. This group brings a wealth of industry experience to optimize deployments on an ongoing basis as part of a customer subscription.
  • Channel Growth:
    • ClickSoftware further established its role as a key part of the digital transformation ecosystem, with partners playing a role in more than a third of deals in 2018. Systems integrators continue to work hand-in-hand with Click's professional services team on the successful deployment of Click Field Service Edge to new customers via Click's partner certification program.
    • Jim McGonagle, Senior Vice President of Global Alliances and Channels, was included in CRN's 2019 prestigious Channel Chiefs for the second year in a row. The executives on this annual list represent top leaders in the IT channel who excel at driving growth and revenue in their organization through channel partners.

"We've seen record top and bottom line performance over the past four quarters. Across our core verticals and beyond, there's a greater understanding of field service and its impact on customer experience and employee engagement, and we're well-positioned for 2019," said Mark Cattini, ClickSoftware CEO. "Technology is becoming more intelligent, and our customers are embracing this innovation to deliver significant business value."
