Partners

Which field service software can a Freshworks partner resell alongside Freshdesk in Latin America?

A Freshworks partner has three real options: Freshdesk's own Field Service Management add-on, which Freshworks lists at USD 29 per field technician per month and which stays inside the Freshworks contract the partner already sells; a field service app from the Freshworks Marketplace, such as Zuper's free Freshdesk app that links tickets to jobs; or a separate field service platform connected to Freshdesk, sold through that vendor's own partner program. Most field service vendors publish referral or implementation programs rather than true resale with a discount: Zuper pays commission on first-year license fees and certifies implementation partners, Fieldproxy pays 10% of every subscription payment for life, and Odoo pays up to 20% on Enterprise. In Latin America, also test the technician app in Spanish and check how invoices reach your client's certified e-invoicing provider, such as an SAT certifier for FEL in Guatemala or a PAC in Panama.

  • Decide first who holds the client's contract for field service: you, Freshworks, or the field service vendor. That decides your margin and your support load.
  • Freshdesk's add-on keeps everything on one Freshworks invoice. A separate platform usually means a referral fee plus your own implementation fee.
  • Check that a ticket becomes a job with its fields, that notes flow both ways, and that finishing the job resolves the ticket.
  • Technicians in the field need Spanish in their own app, including the forms and statuses you configure, not only the vendor's menus.
  • In Guatemala and Panama the legal invoice comes from a certified provider, so the field service tool has to hand invoice data to it.

Step by step

How selling field service next to Freshdesk works, step by step

Whichever product you choose, the client's work runs through the same steps. Map each step to a product and to a person before you quote.

1. The request lands in Freshdesk

A customer emails, calls or uses the portal, and an agent works the ticket. Most tickets close without a visit. The ones that need someone on site are the ones the field service tool must take over.

2. The ticket becomes a job

The agent, or an automation rule, creates a job from the ticket with the site, contact, asset and problem. In Freshdesk, a webhook is an action inside an automation rule: Admin, Workflows, Automations, a new rule on the Ticket Creation or Ticket Updates tab, then Trigger webhook. A Marketplace app does the same from a widget on the ticket screen.

3. Dispatch and the visit

A dispatcher assigns a technician by skill, area and time window. The technician opens the job on a phone, works offline if needed, fills the checklist, takes photos and gets a signature.

4. The ticket is updated and closed

Notes and status come back to the ticket, so the support agent can answer the customer without asking the field team. With Zuper's app, notes are pushed both ways in real time and the ticket is resolved when the technician marks the job Work Completed.

5. Billing and the legal invoice

Billable visits become an invoice. In Guatemala and Panama the tax-valid invoice is issued through a certified provider, so the job's lines, tax and customer tax ID must reach the system that sends it.

6. The partner's role

Agree in writing who sells the licenses, who configures the job forms, who trains technicians in Spanish, who answers first-line support, and who the client calls when the app does not sync. Each option below splits these differently.

What we hear

Why it goes wrong for partners and their clients

These are the problems buyers described on our sales calls, told by type of business only.

The partner sells helpdesk, the client needs field work

A Freshworks reseller in Central America had clients on Freshdesk who also run technicians. The helpdesk was sold and supported. The field side was spreadsheets and WhatsApp, and the partner had nothing to offer for it that fit the Freshworks relationship.

Tickets by email, technicians in many countries

An IT managed services firm sending on-site engineers across about 10 countries handled every ticket by email and spreadsheet. It wanted customer emails to open tickets with an automatic reply, a dispatcher able to filter a large pool of technicians by country and skill, travel expenses approved in the back office, and a monthly billing report per customer across hundreds of tickets.

The vendor wants to do the implementation

A marketing and automation agency evaluating a field service tool to resell to trade clients found that the vendor wanted to run the setup itself and offered no white label. A HubSpot implementer asked the same question from the other side: how do partners work with the vendor on implementation, and is there a partner program at all?

Licensing to other companies

An engineering inspection firm asked whether it could license the software to other firms under its own name. Most field service vendors sell to the operating company, not to a partner who rebrands it. Ask early, because it changes who owns the client relationship.

An app nobody has updated

The Zuper listing on the Freshworks Marketplace shows version 1.0, published over 7 years ago. That may be fine, since Freshworks' own setup article was updated in January 2024, but check when a Marketplace app last changed before you build a client's process on it.

Worked example

A worked example: one partner, two kinds of client

Say a Freshworks partner in Guatemala City has two field clients. Client A is an IT services firm with 8 field technicians and simple visits: go, fix, close the ticket. Client B is a commercial HVAC company with 25 technicians, maintenance contracts on 300 units, parts, and service reports its customers sign.

For Client A, the Freshdesk add-on is the shortest path. At the listed USD 29 per field technician per month, 8 technicians come to USD 232 a month, on the same Freshworks agreement the partner already resells, with no second vendor to support.

Client B needs more than tickets with a visit attached: units with QR labels and history, recurring maintenance from contracts, parts used per job, checklists in Spanish, and quotes and invoices. At the same list price, 25 technicians would be USD 725 a month, so compare that against a dedicated field service platform priced for the whole company, and against the time to configure each option.

Now the partner's side. On the add-on, the partner earns whatever its Freshworks agreement pays on licenses and charges its own setup fee. On a separate platform, it earns the vendor's referral or implementation fee and keeps Freshdesk for the help desk. Under a 10% for life referral, every USD 1,000 the client pays the vendor earns the partner USD 100, for as long as the client stays. Under a first-year commission, the payments stop after year one. Put both on a three-year view before choosing.

Last, the invoice. Client B issues FEL invoices in Guatemala through an SAT-authorized certifier. Whichever tool runs the jobs must send the invoice lines and the customer's tax ID to that certifier, or someone retypes every invoice.

Before you choose

What to check before you choose a product to sell

Good signs

  • A ticket becomes a job with its custom fields, contact, site and attachments, without retyping.
  • Notes and status flow both ways, and finishing the job resolves or updates the ticket.
  • The partner terms are written down: commission rate, how long it lasts, when it is paid, who implements and who supports.
  • Technicians can use the app in Spanish, including the job forms, checklist questions and statuses you set up.
  • The technician app works offline and saves photos, readings and signatures.
  • There is an open API or webhooks, so invoices can reach the client's e-invoicing provider.
  • The demo runs on one of your clients' real ticket types, not a sample account.

Red flags

  • The Freshdesk connection is one way: jobs never update the ticket.
  • The Marketplace app has not changed in years and nobody can say who supports it.
  • Commission is paid only in the first year, with no implementation role for you.
  • Spanish covers the menus only, and your clients' forms stay in English.
  • Invoices can only be exported as PDF, with no way to send data to a certified provider.
  • The vendor cannot say which country its support team works from or in which hours.

In Fieldproxy

Setting it up in Fieldproxy

Fieldproxy is a complete field service platform set up to each client's own stages, forms, checklists and statuses within a day. It works next to Freshdesk: the help desk stays where it is, and the field work runs in Fieldproxy.

Freshdesk tickets become work orders

With the Freshdesk integration, a ticket that needs a visit becomes a Fieldproxy work order with the ticket's details, and job status syncs back to the ticket, so the support agent sees progress without asking the field team (e.g. a ticket field Send to field team that creates the job when ticked).

Each client's own process

Job types, stages, checklists and service reports are built around how each client already works. Emailed POs and work orders can become jobs through the Document intelligence agent, and the Dispatch agent assigns the right technician by distance, skills and certifications.

Spanish for the field, any language for the office

Fieldproxy runs in 27 languages on web and on the Android and iOS technician app. Each person picks their own, so technicians can work in Spanish while the partner and the office work in English, on the same jobs.

Invoices out to the certified provider

Quotes and invoices come from the job, and sync to QuickBooks or Xero where clients use them. For FEL or SFEP, the REST API and webhooks hand invoice data to the client's certifier or PAC (e.g. a webhook on Invoice approved that posts the lines and tax ID).

How partners work with Fieldproxy

The published Fieldproxy partner program is a referral program: partners earn 10% of every subscription payment a referred business makes, for as long as it is a customer, paid by bank transfer within 7 days of each payment, with no cost and no targets. Fieldproxy calls the client, learns how they work and builds their system. Pricing for the client is one price per company with unlimited users.

Latin America

Country notes that change the setup

Guatemala: electronic invoicing runs under the FEL regime (Factura Electrónica en Línea), supervised by the SAT. Resolution SAT-DSI-838-2019, published in September 2019, brought taxpayers providing general individual services into FEL. An SAT-authorized certifier validates and certifies each electronic tax document, and high-volume issuers connect through certifiers and integrators.

Panama: the Sistema de Factura Electrónica de Panamá offers two routes, the DGI's free invoicer and qualified authorized providers (PAC). One 2026 guide reports that under Resolution 201-6299 of 29 July 2025, from 1 January 2026 only taxpayers with gross annual income up to B/.36,000 and no more than 100 electronic documents a month can stay on the free invoicer; others go through a PAC or their own DGI-certified system. The PAC route requires an electronic signature certificate. Confirm the rules for each client with the DGI.

Currency and billing: if you build and sell your own paid Freshworks app, its price must be set in each supported currency, listed as AUD, BRL, EUR, GBP, INR, USD and ZAR. Quote clients in a currency both you and the app's billing support.

How switching works

How switching to Fieldproxy works

We move your data over and set the system up to the way you already work. Fieldproxy replaces the old tool; it does not run alongside it.

  1. Bring one client's real tickets

    Pick a client and share a few tickets that turned into visits, plus the forms and service report they use now.

  2. We build that client's field side

    Stages, checklists and reports are set up to how they work, in Spanish for technicians, and the Freshdesk connection is tested on their ticket types.

  3. Agree the partner split

    Write down who refers, who trains, who answers first-line support, and how the client's invoices reach their certifier or PAC.

  4. Go live and repeat

    Technicians get the Android or iOS app, tickets start creating jobs, and the next client starts from what worked.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Does Freshdesk have its own field service management?
Yes. Freshdesk sells a Field Service Management add-on, with field technician licenses listed at USD 29 per technician per month. Freshdesk also says a team that only provides online helpdesk support does not need field technician licenses.
Can a Freshworks partner earn margin on a field service app from the Marketplace?
Only if the app's maker offers it. Free Marketplace apps such as Zuper's have no Freshworks margin; the field service vendor pays through its own program. A paid app you publish yourself keeps 80% of revenue under Freshworks' paid apps program.
Which field service vendors offer white label for partners?
Few publish it. Zuper's and Fieldproxy's partner pages describe referral and implementation roles, not white label. Ask each vendor in writing whose brand the technician app and customer emails carry.
Can tickets sent by email open field service jobs automatically?
Yes, if Freshdesk turns the email into a ticket and an automation rule or app then creates the job. Test it with a client's real email, including attachments and the auto-reply the customer receives.
Who should support the client: the partner or the vendor?
Decide before you sell. Many partners take first-line support and training in Spanish, and the vendor handles product issues and the integration. Write down response hours for each.
How do field service invoices meet FEL in Guatemala or SFEP in Panama?
The legal invoice is issued through an SAT-authorized certifier in Guatemala, or the DGI free invoicer or a PAC in Panama. The field service tool must send invoice lines and tax IDs to that provider by API, not by retyping.
Is Fieldproxy available in Spanish?
Yes. Fieldproxy runs in 27 languages on web and on the Android and iOS technician app, and each person picks their own language.
