Fort Myers, FL, June 03, 2013 --(PR.com)-- dESCO, LLC., the leading software developer for the service industry, released the latest version of their service management solution – ESC version 13. This release includes enhancements and added features to ESC desktop software and ESC Mobile for smartphones, tablets and laptops.

Long-time ESC customer and alpha tester, Katie Fowler of Fowler Heating & Cooling, said, "ESC version 13 thinks of it all: from the smallest changes meant to make their system more convenient and user friendly to the incredible new mobile features that have my service technicians rejoicing. ESC is a company that truly cares how their customers use their software. I know Version 13 will continue to make managing my service company that much easier every single day."
