The Ultimate Guide To Software

By Joshua Schwall


Technology is finding it way in to all areas of business, and it has recently found its way into home inspection. Up until now, inspectors have had to carry around a notepad, pencils, and a camera to do home inspections. This is just their notes, however; then they would have to reorganize everything they wrote down and type it out manually or the final report. The new home inspection software on the market is totally renovating this process. This article will show you how it does this.

What inspectors are most excited about when it comes to this new software is the wide range of availability for many different kinds of devices. Inspectors can install different versions on all their devices from desktop PCs to their smartphones. Furthermore, inspectors that fully take advantage of the software use it on a variety of mediums.

Using the software on a portable device while on the job provides all sorts of benefits to the inspectors. The most important by far is the improved safety presented by having this software on a portable device. These devices are so compact that they can be placed in an inspectors pockets while he or she does the more demanding tasks like inspecting a crawlspace or climbing a ladder onto a roof.

A second advantage that home inspection software brings to the table is that inspectors no longer have to decipher chicken scratch notes they took on the job for the final report because they can type it all out while making the inspection itself. The benefits to digital notes don't stop there. It's a lot harder to misplace or lose a file on a computer than it is to lose a sheet of notebook paper. Also, everything in the home inspection software can be set up to create automatic online backups using mobile networks. With all of these features, the days of losing ones notes or reports is a thing of the past. In this way, home inspection software is protecting the work that an inspector gets done as well as his or her body on the job.

Furthermore, what mobile device these days doesn't have a camera or memory slot? As a result of this, inspectors can enrich their reports with more detail using lots of images they can take during the inspection. People say a picture is worth a thousand words, so this alone can save the inspector a lot of typing.

Still more advantages of home inspection software are presented because it works on the cloud. This allows inspectors to take notes and pictures on the job using a mobile device and finalized it all into a report on their desktop once they return to the office. This is simplified further with the professional quality digital templates offered with the inspection software.

Although it make seem like I've listed an incredible amount of benefits of home inspection software, I have actually only scratched the surface.
