We’ve Moved… to Canada

The team at OnForce has been working for months to launch our first international expansion into Canada. As of today, buyers can begin creating and routing work orders to the growing population of approved service providers. We already have nearly 100 active service providers, with an additional several hundred close behind.

The “Canadian marketplace”:1 has all of the great features our buyers and providers have grown to depend upon in the United States:

* Task-based work orders that clearly define the required activities for each work orders
* Clear pricing definition (all prices are in US$ for both Canada and the U.S.)
* PowerMatch to help find the right provider for each work order
* Work order notes, sub-statuses, custom fields and all of the other important components to managing service events
* The OnForce rating system and other feedback tools to share information after the service is completed

In addition, we have taken into consideration the elements that are unique to Canada. Most notable are the complexities of tax for both buyers and providers. GST and PST are both fully calculated within the product to enable our users to more easily conduct business in Canada.

We are thrilled to be making the move north - many thanks to all that helped it happen. And a hearty welcome to our newest members of the OnForce community!

Posted in International, Product Updates | 2 Comments

After a significant amount of work and lots of research, OnForce has opened its doors to Canadian service providers. With v4.2 of our platform, providers in Canada can now sign up and fill out service profiles. We are now actively recruiting providers in Canada, working to have a significant number of them signed up within the coming months.

Later in 2007, we will be launching “OnForce Canada”:1 (after much demand from existing and new buyers). Only providers who reside in Canada will be eligible to perform service in Canada.

Please encourage your friends and colleagues in Canada to “sign up”:2. We will be offering special live trainings over the course of the next month to streamline the sign-up process.
