Resco launches Resco Inspections: Shape every step of your inspection process

Bratislava, Slovakia – January 22, 2019 – Resco, the leading provider of enterprise mobile solutions, has officially released Resco Inspections – its new product streamlining inspections from start to finish.

Imagine technicians going through extensive checks of complex equipment or agents documenting damage for insurance claims. Staff checking a store’s inventory, workplace safety supervisors, or sales reps gathering customer feedback. Inspections come into play in countless scenarios across all industries.

However, every use case requires unique questionnaires with specific question types. For example a technician needs to include a photos, while store clerks reviewing inventory need mainly checkboxes and picklists. Therefore, suitable questionnaires must be set up first. Team managers then need to assign the questionnaires to available staff. The workforce complete the questionnaires, and send back the results. Which have to be processed afterwards.

Resco Inspections enables any organization to effectively create and distribute fully customized, highly structured questionnaires. It also simplifies data collection for the staff in the field, and allows to instantly review and evaluate the results. To boost efficiency even further, the solution can utilize existing business data by connecting to external data sources.

“Resco has been an active player in the mobile business software sector for almost two decades, which resulted in our leading position in this area.”, added Radomir Vozar, CEO at Resco. “Resco Inspections is a perfect fit for sales and service organizations with a workforce in the field and nicely complements our vision of enterprise mobility.”

Resco Inspections consists of 4 key components – Designer, Scheduler, Inspections app and Analyst – which help users to cover each step of the inspection process.
