San Francisco – Dreamforce 2014 – Oct. 13, 2014 – ServiceMax, the leading field service management solution for a new era of business, today announced it has joined the Salesforce Analytics Cloud ecosystem to bring in-depth analysis to service organizations and help drive growth.
Wave, the Salesforce Analytics Cloud, is the first cloud analytics platform designed for every business user, making it easier than ever for anyone to explore data, uncover new insights, and take action instantly from any device.
Companies today are more reliant on service revenue for growth and profits than ever before, but many companies lack the ability to give their organizations the kind of data-driven insights they need to succeed. With the Internet of Things, and millions of connected devices and technicians in the field, the ability to simply analyze everything from profitability to better allocation of resources, opens up tremendous new growth opportunities. With the Salesforce Analytics Cloud, companies can combine all the data from their different business systems – including ServiceMax, Salesforce, and ERPs – to extract clear business insights and make better business decisions.
