StrataSync Mobile Tech Released

Posted on

StrataSync Mobile Tech app is now available for the OneExpert instrument family (CATV and DSL).

Leveraging the always-on connectivity of Android/iOS mobile devices carried by most technicians, Mobile Tech allows syncing nearly anywhere and anytime including in the truck between jobs.  Test results can be geotagged and augmented with pictures or video files by leveraging the GPS and multi-media capabilities of the mobile devices.   Instrument sharing is also simplified as test data synced via Mobile Tech is linked to the app User ID, there is no need to change User ID on instrument each time that it changes hands.

Benefits:

  • Sync ONX meters anywhere and anytime the Tech’s mobile device has internet connectivity
  • Managers get faster access to test data, Tech’s have latest work orders assigned to them
  • Geotag test results to pinpoint service locations, prevent spoofing of test results
  • Enhance records of completed tests with pictures or videos of what was found and fixed

Available now in the Apple App Store or on Google Play, and a Getting Started Guide can be found here.
