What mHelpDesk is

mHelpDesk is field service management software for service professionals handling customer contact, scheduling, communication, and billing. Its workflow covers work from lead and estimate through job management, invoicing, and customer payment. The maker describes it as built for home service businesses, contractors, HVAC companies, and cleaning companies. Teams can use its calendar to view jobs, schedule staff, assign work, create events, and color-code staff and teams.

Customers can book online by choosing a service, preferred staff member, and available appointment time; businesses can add the booking option to their website. The software also supports recurring jobs, invoicing and payments, and a customer portal. It can sync with QuickBooks Desktop or QuickBooks Online, though only one version can be selected at a time. Payment processor options include Square, Stripe, Authorize.Net, and PayPal. mHelpDesk is available on the web, macOS, Android, and iOS. The maker lists toll-free phone and email support, onboarding success coaches, training resources, guided setup, implementation guidance, and data migration assistance.
