ServiceTitan Buys New York Company

ServiceTitan, the software developer for contractors, has acquired Pointman, a similar company that allow contractors to access data in the field using a mobile device. Financial terms of the deal between ServiceTitan, in Glendale, and Pointman, in Buffalo, N.Y., were not disclosed. ServiceTitan Chief Executive Ara Mahdessian said that Pointman founders Steve Kiernan II and Steve Raines were motivated by the same thing that inspired him and co-founder Vahe Kuzoyan – improving the lives of contractors. “When we realized that their legacy software partner was terminating their relationship, we knew that that would force contractors to migrate their mobile capabilities to an unproven app with little notice,” Mahdessian said in a statement. “Together with Pointman’s leadership, we saw an opportunity to give these businesses more time and a more reliable mobile option to run their field operations.” The acquisition means that Pointman’s 400 customers and 6,000 active users will transition over to ServiceTitan software in the coming months.
