Service Titan Knowledge Base

TitanAdvisor administrator overviewLast updated on 04/14/2022

TitanAdvisor looks at your account setup and the features you use. Then, based on your trades, organization size, ServiceTitan package, and prioritized business goals, TitanAdvisor recommends features that can make the biggest positive impact on your business.


Things to know

  • Before your company goes live with ServiceTitan, you will have access to Prepare to Launch which guides you through setting up required features and completing the training necessary for a successful ServiceTitan launch. 

  • Once your company has gone live with ServiceTitan, administrators will have access to the TitanAdvisor administrator view, which includes access to My Training and Team Training. Note: Your non-administrator office employees will still have access to the TitanAdvisor Training view, which lists training courses for them to complete. 

  • TitanAdvisor is optional. Access to ServiceTitan features is not dependent on your TitanAdvisor stage or your TitanScore.

  • To complete a TitanAdvisor stage, you must earn a minimum number of points for that stage and achieve a status of Completed, OK, or Great for features tagged as Required.

  • Some TitanAdvisor features are time-dependent. For example, if a feature awards TitanScore points based on jobs booked in the last seven days, your TitanScore can fluctuate depending on recent booking rates.

  • TitanAdvisor Training View is available by default to all office employees. To grant access to the Admin view of TitanAdvisor, enable the following permissions:

    • TitanAdvisor Admin—Allows employee access to the TitanAdvisor Admin view

    • TitanAdvisor - Update Goals—Allows employee to edit business goals

  • If TitanAdvisor recommends a feature that doesn’t apply to your business, you can hide it from view. Or, if you’re not ready to complete a feature that’s recommended on the TitanAdvisor Overview screen, you can snooze it for 30 days.


Overview screen

In ServiceTitan, go to the navigation bar and click the Rocket icon to open the TitanAdvisor Overview screen. The Overview screen contains several sections:

The right side of the Overview screen shows:

  • Your business goals in order of priority

  • Your Benchmark Report Note: You must have a report available to see the report. You may not see a link to a Benchmark Report if you are currently onboarding or went live recently. You may not have sufficient ServiceTitan data for a benchmark report to be generated (you must have completed at least 100 jobs over the time period in review). We currently do not have Benchmark Reports for customers in Alaska and Puerto Rico. If you opted out of Publications via the Data Preferences page, you will also not receive a report or any link in TitanAdvisor. See FAQs for more detail.
