Navio Mobile
Read full descriptionHide full description
Navio Mobile is the field companion for paintless-dent-repair technicians whose organization runs Navio. Log every repaired vehicle in a couple of minutes: • Photograph the car, front to roof, and the registration document. The licence plate, VIN, make and keeper are read for you and you confirm them. • Record the dents on a 3D car, panel by panel, or scan the paper calculation sheet. • Submit the log to your manager and follow it: approved, question open, rejected. • Answer questions and attach missing documents from the log itself. • Get a push notification the moment a reviewer decides. Navio Mobile requires an account in an organization that uses Navio. Managers invite technicians by e-mail; the invitation link opens the app.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Navio Mobile at every 2 weeks against DentMate's every 2 months. DentMate's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.4). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
