# Live tracking for technicians and customers

When a technician is on the way, the office sees where they are and the customer can see them coming, without calling anyone. The customer link is small and private by design.

The problem

## "Where is the technician?"

It is the most common phone call a service company gets. The answer is usually a call to the technician, who is driving.

### A live map for the office

See every technician who is on the way or on a job, with the signal state and an estimated arrival time.

### A link for the customer

A customer opens a link that shows the technician's first name, the road still ahead and an estimated time. It shows no phone number and no history.

### Turn a link off

Any link can be turned off at any time.

### Honest arrival times

Estimates use road distance and learn from your own past trips. When the signal is weak the screen says so.

### Arrival and route review

See when a technician arrived and review the route of a finished trip.

### You decide what customers see

Show or hide the estimate, the route and the technician's name in your settings.

How it works

## Three steps

1.  1
    
    ### The technician sets off
    
    The job moves to "on the way" and sharing starts.
    
2.  2
    
    ### The customer is told
    
    They receive a link and watch the arrival.
    
3.  3
    
    ### Arrival
    
    The office is informed. Nothing moves the job by itself.
    

Questions

## About live tracking

**### Is the technician tracked all day?**

Location is shared while a technician is working a job. A company can also choose working days and hours for team-wide tracking. It is never hidden from the technician.

**### What does the customer see?**

The technician's first name, a map, an estimated time and, only while they are on the way, the road ahead.

**### Does it work on the web?**

The office map and the customer link work in any browser. Reliable background tracking comes from the phone apps; a browser cannot track in the background.
