Ever felt like managing installation jobs is a tangled web? You’re not alone.

Enter Cilio, a comprehensive field service management solution that integrates perfectly with Home Depot’s Service Center to manage all leads and jobs with unparalleled ease. With Cilio, you can keep tabs on leads, sold installs, measures, and so much more. It’s like having a swiss army knife for your installation business, setup to fit your company model.
How Cilio Makes Your Job Easier
Sync Seamlessly with Home Depot’s Service Center
Balancing your company’s tasks while updating Home Depot’s Service Center can be a bit overwhelming. But Cilio takes that weight off your shoulders. Schedule jobs, communicate with your teams, or deal with paperwork – you can do it all effortlessly while staying synced with Service Center.
When Home Depot assigns a new job to your company, Cilio automatically brings it into your own system, incorporates it into a workflow of your choosing, all labeled and sorted the way you like. This means you can manage your jobs in a centralized way, without constantly logging into multiple platforms. Do the job, update your system, and Cilio keeps everything squared away with Home Depot.
Handling the “Paperwork” Without the Paper
Traditional paperwork can be tough to manage. Chasing crews to gather documentation costs time for the chase, but can also delay the sales process for scanning and uploading measure docs. Sloppy handwriting on paper forms can easily create ordering errors with the unpleasant debate of who’s paying for it while also delaying the customer’s project. Waiting to collect ICA docs from crews means you’re waiting to get paid. Cilio can help.
You can take ANY doc or form that would traditionally be filled out on paper and upload them as electronic templates into your system. In just minutes, we’ll show you how to add form fields that can either auto-populate from existing info on your job (like customer name, address, etc), but also create the places on the doc where you want a person to add info like a measurement or an install note.
While in the field, they simply open the doc on a cell phone or tablet, tap on the form field you made, and add the needed info. It’s clean, simple, and instantly available for your office review or uploaded straight to Depot right from the jobsite!
Smarter Scheduling and Routing
Efficient use of your team’s time is crucial for maximizing profit margins. Cilio’s Google Maps integration allows you to see a technician’s existing schedule, read job details directly from the map, and overlay unscheduled work to make better routing decisions. Our tools minimize drive time, enabling crews to spend more time on the job.
Store stops for product pickup can be automatically added when required. If a job gets canceled, it’s quick and easy to fill the gap with a nearby job. With crew links for turn-by-turn directions, using this feature from any mobile device is a breeze, even for those non technical crews you know you have.
Step Up Your Customer Communication
Cilio elevates your customer communication by automating your outbound text/email messages. Messages can be dynamic, automatically inserting job-specific data (like customer name, type of work, appointment times, etc.). Customer replies can trigger any automation in your system.
For example, you can text a customer to confirm an installation appointment. Cilio monitors for customer replies and automatically performs the next steps based on their responses. This way, you stay engaged with your clients without having to micromanage each communication point, or exchanging painful voicemails.
Our customer online view feature provides a link to customers via text or email. With a single click, they can see the status of their job, scheduled appointments, and communicate with you 24/7, all within your own system.
