Key Features Stay on Top of Projects A project is a series of jobs on a selected property with an assigned completion deadline. Projects can have multiple jobs. Alloy Install helps teams complete jobs faster and more accurately while allowing managers to effectively QA installation tasks. Effectively Complete Jobs A job is a series of tasks to be completed per single unit. Jobs are able to have multiple tasks. Users have the ability to see jobs assigned to them on the day they are scheduled, as well as a separate view for future and past jobs, keeping them focused and on task for that days work. Effortlessly Complete Tasks A task is a singular assignment within a job. Alloy Install provides tools within the app to complete the SmartRent smart home IoT installation including device pairing, photos, troubleshooting and more. Quickly Manage And Create New Projects Create job templates to avoid having to manually input each task per job. A template can be applied to any and all jobs.
