## What is Archipad Classic?

Archipad Classic is a one time purchase and does not include Archipad Cloud services nor Premium features such as plan versions, cloud project editing, Archipad.mobi access, observations comments and all new Premium features.

Archipad is the new way to manage your on-site meetings, and the easiest way to write down observations, removing many fastidious steps in the process. Archipad allows you to easily create punch lists, and allows you to send a report, the punch list and drawings with item locations, directly from the site. No need to go back to the office to prepare minutes and reports, no more losing precious hours formatting your documents.


Archipad is created for construction professionals, architects, engineers, contractors, project managers, assistants, promoters...
Archipad Classic on iPad offers a unique and easy to use solution to manage observations, punch lists, drawings, and meetings. The iPad is what we all have been waiting for to do on-site visits, witch even if they last all day, your iPad will not run out of battery when correctly charged at start.


Archipad Classic strong points:
- User friendly and extremely simple to use: no training required.
- Optimize your time and use the iPad as a data entry tool, pointing observations directly on plans and drawings, and reduced typing with our auto-enhancing typing reducer: as you add observations, Archipad will learn your vocabulary and sentences and propose auto completion, the smart way.
- A flat fee and moderate price. You will know what you pay up front, and will not be billed by the project or number of hours used. In just a couple of meetings your purchase will pay back by the time you saved.
- Reports with punch lists with drawings indicating the locations of each observation can be made per work package or per drawing, making it easy to read for all those working on the project, whether they are contractors or architects.

The reports have been thought as actual meeting minutes, by allowing each person attending the meeting to sign a presence sheet your reports will show the signature of all attendances.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2012-07-13*

I really like this app.  You load your drawings to the app and when you are out in the field you simply tap a location on a drawing and then add your comments.  You can ditch all of your drawings and notepads at the office.

It saves time and money. It's so easy to use that even people who are not tech savvy can run with it.  It is not without the occasional bugs.  I haven't seen any myself but I have worked with others who have.  Nevertheless the developer support is quick to respond and very open to feedback.  

Someone I work with said, "Anyone who goes to a site meeting should have an iPad with this app installed!"
