About
Bella FSM is a comprehensive field service management (FSM) solution built for trades and service businesses across 40+ industries. It replaces scattered spreadsheets, phone calls, and paper work orders with a unified cloud platform accessible from any device. Office teams can schedule jobs, dispatch technicians, and communicate with customers, while field technicians access real-time schedules, job details, customer history, and navigation from a dedicated mobile app — all sharing the same live data. Key capabilities include a drag-and-drop scheduling calendar with optimized dispatch, digital work orders that track labor, parts, photos, and customer signatures from creation to payment, and a built-in CRM that stores complete client histories, equipment records, and communication logs. Inventory management lets businesses track parts across warehouses and vehicles, manage vendors, and trigger reorders automatically. Bella FSM also offers real-time reporting dashboards with customizable KPIs such as first-time fix rates and revenue per technician. Seamless QuickBooks sync eliminates double data entry, and on-site payment collection via Stripe accelerates cash flow. The platform is highly configurable — custom forms, job types, labels, and terminology can be set up to match any trade's existing workflow. A professional services team handles onboarding and data migration, making setup straightforward for businesses of all sizes.
