<h2>What does AyaNova mean?</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
It's not as mysterious as you might think: When we
|
||||
needed to apply for a legal trademark for our customer
|
||||
service software we had to use a unique word that would
|
||||
not conflict with anyone else's trademark.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Being the computer geeks that we are, we wrote a program
|
||||
that generated millions of pronounceable words out of 8
|
||||
random letters or less, and then checked to see if used
|
||||
elsewhere.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Likely words were then short listed for us. We thought
|
||||
AyaNova sounded "cool" and it stuck. We pronounce it
|
||||
<strong>A</strong>-ya-nova (like the immortal phrase of
|
||||
that famous auto service technician
|
||||
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fonzie">Fonzie</a
|
||||
>), but that's just us.

<h2>How did AyaNova come about?</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
AyaNova® grew out of our own internal
|
||||
<b>work order and customer service software</b>
|
||||
application which we had developed for our own use in
|
||||
our company's repair shop and field service division
|
||||
when we found that there was no suitable customer
|
||||
service software available on the market that was
|
||||
affordable to us as a (then) small computer customer
|
||||
service business.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Our needs were just as complex as they are for larger
|
||||
businesses: we needed to dispatch technicians generate
|
||||
computerized work orders, control our service expenses,
|
||||
track our customers and how many billable hours, parts
|
||||
and third party service expenses we were providing to
|
||||
them; however there was nothing affordable that
|
||||
addressed all the needs of a busy service and repair
|
||||
shop.
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
We built our own work order and customer service
|
||||
software originally in 1995 and continued to improve it
|
||||
over the years adding features like preventative
|
||||
maintenance scheduling, service and repair scheduling
|
||||
customer equipment database and tracking, special
|
||||
project management, customizable work orders for
|
||||
different departments, searchable knowledgebase,
|
||||
integration with QuickBooks, remote access via a web
|
||||
browser so that remote technicians could enter work
|
||||
orders search the database, check their dispatch
|
||||
schedule and much more.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
We realized that what worked for us just might be useful
|
||||
to others and so we put all our knowledge and experience
|
||||
gained working one on one with regular computer users on
|
||||
a daily basis both in our custom software development
|
||||
and computer service divisions into our customer service
|
||||
software program and published it publicly and
|
||||
trademarked it shortly after 2000.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
AyaNova® customer service software has since become
|
||||
popular way beyond our expectations with excellent sales
|
||||
globally and now many lesser imitators.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
From the start we decided that even though we were
|
||||
publishing customer service software to the whole world
|
||||
we would use a fresh approach to customer service
|
||||
software design using the same highly successful methods
|
||||
learned through years of building custom software much
|
||||
of it for service related industries.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
We believe in giving people what they actually need, not
|
||||
what we think they need and we continue to encourage our
|
||||
customers to give us feedback on every aspect of the
|
||||
program. Over time we have "grown"
|
||||
AyaNova® into a complete work order and customer
|
||||
service software application with hundreds of truly
|
||||
useful and unique features suggested by people "in
|
||||
the trenches" of service management from around the
|
||||
world.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
As we continue to grow our philosophy remains the same:
|
||||
<b
|
||||
>highest quality, easy to use repair shop / work
|
||||
order / customer service software</b
|
||||
>
|
||||
served up with personal service at an affordable price.
