Worst App

This is the most overly complicated app I have ever used. Wanna go ahead and put a note in nope you have to go to a specific page. Find the plus button and then put your note in you. Can’t just go to the job. Click on the job put a note real quick. I have to go to a specific page to put a note in for the job. What a joke oh, wanna go ahead and look at your schedule what inspections you may have today well you better remember the name of the job that you have an inspection for cause then you gotta go into schedule go to filter filter to your name and then look at your schedule so many overly complicated aspects of this app and they’re just complicated to be complicated. It should never be automatically filtered. It should automatically be filter to my name every single time and you can’t even save a new filter as default. It just keeps going back to the original the worst app I’ve have ever used

Worst system

I’ve been using systems like this for the past 15 years working in the restoration industry. This system has got to be the most backwards unusable unintuitive overly complicated system. Nothing is easy. Want to find your schedule for an inspection you need to well have fun going through the filters again changing everything over to pre-sale clicking on it saving apply filter then go back and you still can’t find it.
My God then when you do that, and you have to go look for another one for another inspection filters reset somehow now you gotta do it again. Oh wow, need to put a daily note in on a job. Good luck with that. You clicked the job. It brings you to the page and then for some reason that page won’t allow you to put any daily logs in. You have to go to some other page for the job to put the damn daily logs. Wow now you need to search for a job go into your filters change your filters even though you’ve saved it 100 times it keeps resetting itself so you have to keep going back. Like why isn’t the initial jobs all your jobs you can just search for the name of the job click it open it. Why do we have to preset filter filters filters are for when you’re trying to drill down and find something not when you’re just looking for something in general like a job, you’ve seen 100 times. There’s so many better options for systems like Albi or Dash.
Also, when you’re on the website and you click a job, how come it just doesn’t give you the job information on that main page why they have to click the job then go into all these different tabs just to find additional information like if I click a job it should automatically when I see that page show me the customer’s name address date of inspections the phone number maybe.

I hate everything about this app it’s like traveling back in time when these apps started to be created.

Loggin

I’m having trouble logging in. Even when I enter the correct email and password, I still can’t log in. Because of this, I can’t check the construction updates and have to ask you for updates instead. Could you please help me figure out how to log in? Thank you.

Worst app ever

Not written for the customer

Easy to write up a work order but very rough to follow up on the progress. This is for communication not for separation and isolation. VERY poorly written technology.
