Done vs Salesforce Field Service: product or project?

Salesforce Field Service is serious enterprise software: field-service management you can configure for almost any kind of work, native to Salesforce CRM. Done is built for energy installations and runs them from day one, with installers available if you need them.

The short version

The two overlap on installations but come from different directions. What decides it is your current stack, who does the installing, and how much configuration you want to own.

Salesforce Field Service is a good choice when

  • Your company runs on Salesforce and wants field operations in the same system
  • You manage many kinds of field work, not only energy installations
  • You employ or contract your own field workforce
  • You have Salesforce admins or an implementation partner to configure and maintain it

Done is the better fit when

  • You want installation workflows that work from day one, without a configuration project
  • You need installers, or want Done to run the operation for you
  • You need installation finance built in: installer self-billing, plus reverse VAT and the green-tech deduction in Sweden
  • Your customers expect an app built around their installation

Capability by capability

  • Installation workflow out of the box

Four places the difference shows

What can be configured also has to be configured. Here is where a platform built for installations and a general field-service suite differ.

Workforce and operations

Manage a workforce, or choose an operating model

Salesforce Field Service is built to manage a workforce you already employ or contract, which suits utilities and manufacturers with standing field crews. Done lets you choose how much to run yourself: your own crews on Done Platform, Done's network for extra capacity, or Installation Services and Full Service, where Done runs the operation.

  • A network of 500+ vetted installers
  • 9-step vetting, and every installation rated by the customer
  • 80% of customers reach an available installer the same day and 50% within two hours
  • Switch between the three offers on the same platform and data

Customer experience

Built around the homeowner as well as the technician

Field-service software is organized around the mobile worker: schedules, routes, job sheets. That is the right lens for large field operations. A home installation also needs the customer's lens: what happens next, what it costs, who is coming. Done's customer app is built for that.

  • Live tracking from order to finished installation
  • Chat with photos, video, and documents, plus phone-style audio and video calls
  • A photo pre-check, so surprises surface before installation day
  • Quote approval, invoices, and installer reviews in the same app

Invoicing and payouts

Installation finance, included

In Salesforce, installer self-billing and the green-tech deduction need custom development or add-ons. On Done, the customer invoice, the installer payout, and the tax treatment come from the same job data, so nothing is keyed in twice or reconciled by hand.

  • Installer self-billing: installers get paid without sending invoices
  • In Sweden, reverse VAT and the green-tech deduction are handled in invoicing
  • Only costs the customer approved can be invoiced, so there is nothing to dispute

Compliance and AI

Reports, föranmälan, and installation AI, built in

Configuration can copy a workflow. The specifics of Swedish energy installations take much longer to build, and in Done they are already there.

  • Structured installation reports with photos, generated as PDFs and sent by webhook
  • AI reads photos of the electrical cabinet and flags likely extra costs before dispatch
  • Chat triage scores every customer message and escalates when an installer does not reply
  • Föranmälan requirements mapped across 150+ Swedish grid operators
