TechAnywhere supplies field technicians with wireless field access to current work orders using BlackBerry wireless devices or tablet PCs. Since your mobile workforce is wirelessly connected to vital information, you will realize greater efficiency from field service to the back office. Furthermore, the latest implementation of TechAnywhere leverages the benefits of tablet PCs to better emulate the paper work orders that techs are used to.
The tablet PC solution reduces the learning curve for techs, allows contractors to load other software on the wireless device (such as an estimating package or MS Office) and eliminates data entry in the back office. Best of all, there are no software integration issues since this powerful wireless dispatch and field service software is fully integrated with SAM Pro Enterprise.
