Torsion Talk S8 Ep100: The Software Decision – FieldPulse vs. Insight for Doors & The Future of FSM

In this episode of Torsion Talk, Ryan shares major business updates, dives into his Field Service Management (FSM) software decision process, and compares FieldPulse vs. Insight for Doors. The final decision isn’t made yet, but Ryan lays out why these two platforms stand out and where they may still fall short.

Episode Highlights:

🔥 Business Growth & Exciting Announcements

Aaron Overhead Doors' Leadership Expansion – New hires, promotions, and building for scale

MarKenity's New Google Business Profile Service – Affordable SEO options with self-checkout

Heading to Puerto Rico for a Major Summit – Big things coming for the industry!

🚀 The FSM Software Showdown – Where We Stand Now

✅ FieldPulse – Feature-Packed & Affordable

Sales pipeline, inventory tracking, & project management all in one

Dynamic proposal tool with customizable, high-converting quotes

Integrated phone system with call tracking & IVR

Lower cost than ServiceTitan & more flexible contract options

✅ Insight for Doors (Built on Acumatica) – The Enterprise Solution

One system for everything (dispatch, CRM, financials, QuickBooks replacement, & more!)

Deep data insights & robust financial tracking

High upfront investment ($65K+) but unlimited users & long-term scalability

Potentially the most powerful FSM platform—but is it too soon for us?

🔍 Why Some Software Didn’t Make the Cut

Workiz – Too many reports of broken promises & QuickBooks integration issues

Service Fusion – Solid, but load times are still frustratingly slow

ServiceTitan – Fast, powerful, but missing key features & pricing feels excessive

💡 Next Steps & What’s Next for the Series

Insight for Doors Demo is coming soon!

FieldPulse is now set up for in-depth testing

Ryan will finalize his FSM software decision in the coming weeks!
