Time saved- Data collection via paper forms can be tedious. Curation and data entry into the database can be time-consuming and error-prone. Mobile field data collection can save you a lot of time.
Lowers your costs- Paper-based surveys are more expensive because of the additional printing, transport, and data entry costs. Businesses will see lower long-term costs and higher monetary profits if they use mobile data collection.
Data security- Paper forms can be damaged by negligence or other catastrophic events. This can be avoided by using mobile data collection applications that simultaneously upload data to the replicated servers.
Technical training- Field staff can be trained and provided with current documentation. This is an additional cost when collecting data via paper. Mobile apps provide field technicians with tips and training that can be automated to aid them in their work. The app allows them to easily access the most recent documentation.
In safety and emergency situations such as a mine collapse, downed power lines, or gas leaks, it is impossible to monitor the health of employees in the field. It is difficult to provide real-time support. In Australia, managers can see the location of their employees on a map with Usher professionals and view their most recent activities.
