How to automatically request reviews after Workiz jobs
Reviewflowz sends review requests automatically when you mark service calls complete in Workiz, with no manual work required from your team. Choose email ($5 per 1,000), SMS ($5 per 100), or WhatsApp as your delivery method. Every completed HVAC repair, plumbing job, or electrical installation triggers an immediate request to the homeowner for Google, Yelp, or Angi reviews. Your techs focus on the work while every single customer gets asked for feedback. The system works in the background, turning your daily job completions into a steady stream of review opportunities without anyone remembering to send follow-ups.
Track your best customers from Workiz in review data
When customers leave 5-star reviews, that positive feedback gets tagged directly to their service record in your Workiz system for future reference. Your dispatch team immediately sees which homeowners are your biggest advocates when scheduling follow-up maintenance or warranty work. Use this information strategically: ask your happiest customers for referrals to neighbors, request video testimonials for your website, or invite them to participate in case studies. Instead of guessing which customers love your work, you have concrete proof of satisfaction tied to specific service addresses and customer accounts.
Attribute Workiz reviews to technicians without names
Reviewflowz automatically assigns incoming reviews to the correct technician using your Workiz job assignment data, eliminating the need for customers to mention names. This prevents the common problem where Google flags reviews that specifically call out employees. Your reviews read naturally while you still get detailed performance tracking for each team member. Run reports showing which HVAC techs or plumbers generate the most positive feedback, identify top performers for bonuses, and coach technicians who need improvement. The attribution happens behind the scenes using your existing job scheduling data, so customers never need to remember or spell names correctly.

Calculate review conversion rates from Workiz job data
Review conversion rate measures reviews collected divided by total jobs completed, giving you the real performance metric that matters for service businesses. Reviewflowz pulls your completed job count directly from Workiz to calculate this automatically. A contractor with 80 reviews from 400 service calls (20% conversion rate) significantly outperforms one with 200 reviews from 3,000 calls (6.7% rate). The average Reviewflowz customer achieves 7.5% conversion rate. Track your monthly performance: 150 HVAC jobs completed, 18 reviews collected, 12% conversion rate. This data helps you optimize review request timing, messaging, and channels for maximum response rates.
AI automatically replies to HVAC and plumbing reviews
AI generates professional responses to every review across Google, Yelp, Angi, HomeAdvisor, BBB, and 200+ other platforms using your brand voice and HVAC industry terminology. Review replies improve your Google search ranking and show future customers that you care about service quality. The AI understands context: thanking customers for praising your furnace installation, addressing concerns about emergency plumbing calls, or highlighting your commitment to indoor air quality. You can approve responses before publishing or let them post automatically. This saves hours of manual work while ensuring no review goes unanswered, whether it covers routine maintenance or complex system replacements.
