Empowering small businesses to succeed

Every service business eventually reaches a point where old habits start to slow growth.

Excel sheets, verbal agreements, and messenger chats stop working once the team expands and tasks multiply. That’s when the big question arises: which field service management system can give you control without taking away flexibility?

For many, the answer has been ServiceTitan — a massive, all-in-one platform packed with dozens of features and deep automation. But as functionality grows, so does complexity. Training, integrations, and technical barriers make ServiceTitan a tool that requires an entire infrastructure to support it.

Shifton Field Service offers an alternative — a lightweight, scalable, intelligent system that adapts to your team, not the other way around.

If ServiceTitan is a heavy construction excavator, then Shifton is an electric drone: agile, precise, and fast.

Product Architecture

ServiceTitan was built like an ERP for service giants — call management, CRM, finance, marketing, logistics, analytics. It’s a tool with a deep structure and complex navigation. There’s a lot to do inside it, but everything requires configuration.

Shifton, on the other hand, was designed around real field workflows.

It’s not a corporate tower of modules — it’s a network of connected tools:

• task management,

• shift and service zone planning,

• checklists and statuses,

• reporting and analytics.

Shifton doesn’t force you to adapt to the system. It adapts to you — whether you’re a small local company with five technicians or a growing network across three countries. In Shifton, architecture doesn’t weigh you down — it supports you.

Ease of Implementation

ServiceTitan requires formal onboarding. Usually, that means a week of configuration, data migration, testing, and staff training. Some companies even hire consultants to make it run properly.

Shifton needs none of that.

Sign up, create your company, invite your employees — and you’re ready to go. Modularity makes setup intuitive: activate integrations when you’re ready, or just start with tasks and checklists.

Average time to full operation? Less than an hour.

Shifton is SaaS in the purest sense — log in, configure, and start working.

Workflow Automation

ServiceTitan uses a complex automation model — triggers, workflows, permissions, and cross-module logic. Powerful, but designed for engineers. A non-technical manager can feel lost among parameters and dependencies.

Shifton brings automation without overload.

You can define task statuses, build checklists, assign roles, and set the sequence of actions. The system automatically logs start and finish times, records routes, generates reports, and keeps a full task history.

Example:

• The manager assigns a task.

• The technician accepts, completes, and attaches photos and a signature.

• Shifton tracks every step and updates statuses automatically.

No scripts, no spreadsheets — just real-time visibility.

Scalability

ServiceTitan is ideal for large HVAC, plumbing, electrical, or construction enterprises.

But for small businesses, it often feels oversized — expensive licenses, long training, and heavy infrastructure.

Shifton scales naturally.

You can start with five people and grow to 500 while keeping the same speed and performance. Add branches, languages, or regions — Shifton simply expands with you. No rebuilding, no slowdowns — just growth.

Analytics and Reporting

ServiceTitan offers advanced BI dashboards: financial charts, marketing data, performance metrics. But they need setup and metric knowledge to be useful.

Shifton delivers actionable, real-time management analytics instead.

It answers the questions that actually matter:

• How many tasks were completed today?

• Who’s working right now?

• Where are delays happening?

• How long does each stage take?

All this lives on one screen. Graphs, tables, and maps work in sync — with live data that never needs manual updates or exports.

Integrations and Ecosystem

ServiceTitan integrates with tools like QuickBooks, Google Ads, e-signature, and telephony systems — but these connections often require corporate-level setup.

Shifton is built with open APIs and plug-and-play integrations for CRM, ERP, and accounting systems. You can sync clients, tasks, and reports in minutes. Integrations aren’t “extra features” — they’re part of the core architecture.

UX and User Experience

ServiceTitan’s interface is powerful but heavy — like an aircraft control panel filled with buttons and filters.

Shifton is light, clean, and built on the principle of one screen — one action.

Everything you need is right there: tasks, maps, reports, statuses, filters. Even new users feel instantly oriented — “I know where to click.”

Shifton’s UX borrows from mobile logic but performs like a professional system.

Support and Updates

ServiceTitan updates arrive in big releases every few months.

Shifton evolves continuously — every 2–3 weeks, users get small, meaningful improvements without disruption.

Support is fully human — quick responses, real solutions, and attention to detail. Every request becomes an opportunity to make the product better.

Pricing and Ownership

ServiceTitan is a premium investment — paid licenses, paid onboarding, paid support. For small businesses, it’s a cost that must justify itself over time.

Shifton remains accessible — flexible pricing, transparent plans, a free “To-Do” module, and a 30-day free trial. You pay only for what you use.

Product Culture

ServiceTitan was built for enterprises where processes are rigid and hierarchies complex. Shifton was born in the field — where agility matters more than bureaucracy.

Its philosophy is built on connection, not control. Shifton doesn’t force your processes to change — it grows with them.

Why Shifton

Because it doesn’t make you choose between simplicity and functionality. Because it’s built not for programmers, but for the people who work in the field. Because in a world of heavy platforms, Shifton Field Service keeps your operations fast, human, and free.
