How Streem® video helped AHS eliminate additional site visits on a majority of appliance calls. Customers love it!
It’s hard to get the full picture of appliance repair projects over the phone. For American Home Shield® errors or lack of information in work orders could cost teams expensive additional site visits and strain customer relationships.
Using interactive video calls as the first step in appliance repair, allowed American Home Shield contractors to better service customers with faster response times and quicker resolutions.

The technicians are happier with the extra diagnostic information when they get to the home. We are reducing about 75% of truck rolls as a first stop which is greatly increasing our productivity. Overall we are very happy with the results we have gotten from using Streem in our business.
