Spreadsheets & text files

Spreadsheets and text files can be simply added to your InFormed Apps - price and parts lists, vehicle registrations or any other data can be quickly added to your solutions. These Lookups are stored securely on the mobile devices so can be used off-line in the field to quickly and accurately enter data. Data files can also be stored on an FTP location ensuring the field is always using fresh data.

InFormed has a pre-built connector with Salesforce.com. This enables InFormed users to access any data directly from Salesforce.com, and then write back a completed PDF or Word document into SalesForce.com. InFormed can also be configured to connect with many ERP and CRM systems.

Batch Jobs

The InFormed Integration module can be configured in minutes to send data from our Cloud portal to a customer's data centre. These integration jobs can be scheduled as needed and can use FTP, sFTP or email protocols.

Instant Communication

Need to get your workers' attention? Tired of missed emails or ignored text messages?

Our new NOTIFICATIONS module allows our customers to communicate with their users via Instant Notifications. These notes popup on a user's SmartPhone immediately prompting them into action driving efficiency and transparency between HQ and mobile workers.

Notifications can be sent to a single user or group of users and can be configured to recur as needed.

For example, "send a Health & Safety notification to all store managers every Monday morning at 8am". Users automatically receive the notification at the required time and fill in the linked form. The results of completed forms are instantly viewable via our web portal.

InFormed dashboards present data captured by InFormed apps in a clear, easy to understand format. Dashboards can be presented on a map, in tables, charts or a combination of formats to suit the application.

Dashboards can calculate and display Key Performance Indicators such as audit trends, results and exceptions and are interactive so users can drill-down to quickly find the information they need. Dashboards are real-time, so always show up to date information as it is being submitted from the field.

The combination of InFormed Apps & Dashboards is a powerful proposition; our clients can deploy personalised, data-rich applications to SmartPhones and tablets in minutes, without any programming, and view the results in an interactive dashboard. This can help drive automation and productivity, increase revenues through sales effectiveness and drive compliance across an organisation.
