Common questions
No. ServiceTitan handles dispatch, jobs, and billing. Operator adds missed call recovery on top, which ServiceTitan does not do natively.
Emergency language in a voicemail or missed call context is flagged immediately for on-call escalation, not held until the morning queue.
The task shows the caller number, any existing ServiceTitan customer match, service history, and a suggested callback script. The CSR makes the call and marks the outcome.
Most plumbing shops are live in one session. The phone log connection is the critical path, not the ServiceTitan integration.
Replace the manual layer. Keep ServiceTitan.
