Mobile Field Service Apps
Inevitably, companies come to the point at which any off-the-shelf software solution does not have all of the functionality that is required to meet the needs of a specific business. This is where Apps, available in the ClickAppStore, enable the extension of ClickMobile functionality. Instead of introducing code, implementers can browse the ClickAppStore for existing Apps that have been developed for other ClickMobile users.
ClickMobile Apps take all forms, always designed to perform a single or multiple actions – and most of which can be combined with other Apps as part of a client’s solution. Small Apps provide basic functionality to access a web service, display or capture information, or to enforce a work flow. Larger Apps provide more complete work flows or full functionality such as the ability to view and update asset information from a map, to upsell additional products and services to a residential customer, or to capture time sheets for a crew or individual.
The largest of Apps are complete mobile solutions which can be configured and used nearly as-is, and are a composite of smaller Apps which work together to accomplish a series of activities for a given role – effectively enabling full productivity from the field, for any field-based role. The ClickAppStore catalog is constantly growing to meet a wider variety of industries and roles, such that most functionality necessary to cover even very specific needs is available – without using code. Existing App examples from the ClickAppStore Repository include the following, all of which are described in more detail here:
