When The Status Quo Has Got To Go—Why Switching To PestRoutes Is The Right Move

So, you’ve had it up to here with your current software, and you’re ready to trade up to something that’ll help your organization thrive for years to come.

Congratulations. A whole new world of efficiency, growth, and opportunity awaits you. That is if you choose wisely. The good news is, if you’re reading this, then you may have already stumbled upon the answer. It may seem self-serving, but we believe we have the best solution on the marketplace right now, bar none. Here’s why:

We Keep it Simple

A lot of software companies like to throw the word “intuitive” around. Yet, when you finally get a chance to peek under the hood and check things out for yourself, you can’t make heads or tails out of what you see. And you’re expected to run your business with this stuff? No way. That’s why we’ve made it a point to focus on usability, so things are always easy and clear-cut for you and your team. One look at our dashboard, and you’ll see the truth behind that statement.

Right out of the gate, you get meaningful charts and graphs—not a bunch of confusing numbers—to give you a quick snapshot of your business. Scheduling can be done with a simple drag and drop. And powerful automation features help put things on cruise control so you can focus on other tasks. You don’t need to be a techie or have a black belt in software engineering to take full advantage of our system.

"PestRoutes creates long-term value for my staff and my customers. The expertise and easy-to-use technology has enabled me to improve cash flow and fund expansion while best serving my customers. PestRoutes gives my business what it needs and has quickly become a critical function that is integral to my business growth."

We Adapt to Change

Most solutions were state of the art at one time or another. But then they failed to innovate, only offering the rare update or bug fix. The thing is, stagnation of any kind is a surefire recipe for disaster. Whether your business is pool, lawn, pest control, or even technology, as soon as you take your eye off the ball, you can count on one of your competitors to jump in and take advantage. As technology evolves, the way your customers choose to do business also changes. A solution that fails to keep up won’t do you any favors.

At PestRoutes, we’re not afraid to shake things up with some good old-fashioned American ingenuity. We were the first ones to let customers buy and schedule services online thanks to our partnership with Lobster Marketing—something our competitors still haven’t gotten around to yet. Our mobile technology offers unprecedented convenience to your team while they’re on the road. And we’re constantly adding new features that shave hours off your process. We don’t just keep up with the pace of change. We lead the pack.

"Don’t be afraid of change ... PestRoutes took our company to a whole new level."

We Help You Grow Faster 

Any software solution worthy of the name will help you build efficiencies and grow your business. That’s the bare minimum—it’s what a good technology partner is supposed to do. The fact is, growth comes with the territory when moving up from old-school manual processes, regardless of what software you decide to implement. The difference is that our clients grow faster. The proof? Look no further than this year’s PCT Top 100 list.

Let’s crunch the numbers. The average revenue growth rate for the PCT Top 100 customers using PestRoutes was 43% over the reported period. And the six PestRoutes clients who made the list for the first time achieved an outstanding 74% average revenue growth rate. Those using both PestRoutes and Lobster Marketing enjoyed an impressive average revenue growth rate of 53%. Those on the list not using PestRoutes? 16%. Nothing to sneeze at to be sure. But you don’t have to be a mathlete to see that our clients grow faster. Want to learn more? Check out the report.

We Help You Scale Easier

Growing your business is fine and good. But if you’re struggling to handle all that new business, your service can suffer as a result. And when your service suffers, your valued clients inevitably start badmouthing your business and running to your competitors. With pretty much every industry suffering from a workforce shortage, scalability is even more important now than ever before. Added efficiencies can level the playing field by helping you and your team do more with less.

Again, every system will help at least a little in this regard. But we make it our business to cut hours—not minutes—from your day and provide much-needed help where and when it counts. Our automated appointment and payment reminders go out based on your criteria using email, text, voicemail, or any combination. Our routing solution reduces vehicle wear and tear and fuel expenses. More importantly, it frees your technicians to spend more time with customers and less time on the road. We can go on and on, but why not schedule a demo and get a full rundown of how we can help?

We’re Happy to Help

Customer support is one of those things you don’t really think about until you need it. But that’s what some software companies bet on. They want you to put it in the back of your mind because they outsource that vital part of the process or charge extra for it. Or both. We don’t do that here. Our customer support team is in-house, U.S.-based, and completely free. That’s how you know we’re always happy to help. And then there’s our implementation team.

Our clients love our implementation team, and for good reason. Switching software is never easy. Besides the usual data conversions and technical aspects, most businesses in this space are accustomed to doing things their own way. That can make training on a new system a bit tricky. But our team does everything they can to make things easier. We never leave you hanging and make sure you’re trained and good to go—with no downtime—before going live.  

Our Pricing is Straightforward

As a technology partner, your continued success is our top priority. It should be that way for every vendor you come in contact with. So, why then do so many try to nickel and dime you with weird pricing structures? It seems counterintuitive when you have to constantly guess what your monthly invoice is going to look like. Let’s be honest here, you can’t afford to be hit with random surprise expenses each month. And why should you be penalized for accessing new features that are supposed to help?

That’s why our pricing structure—like our software—is simple, straightforward, and above all, fair. The numbers are right here on our website for all to see. We don’t hide behind a phone call or contact page. Routing, collections, reporting, lead progression tools, and more are all available to you for one reasonable rate. Any optional services are competitively priced and communicated in advance, so you never have to worry about unpleasant surprises.

We Want to Earn Your Partnership and Trust

As you can see, not all pest control software solutions are created equally. When you’re shopping around for new software, we hope you put PestRoutes at the top of your list. Regardless of your immediate needs and long-term objectives, our entire team is here to support your efforts and help you get there. If you haven’t already done so, why not schedule a free demo and see what we can do for your business?
