PDA & smart devices to manage your business

PDAs and smart devices

PDA & smart devices - Progressive Solutions UK

Using the power and almost universal availability of the mobile phone network, our PDA and Windows ‘Smart’ devices let you keep in touch with the office, without the burden of carrying a laptop around and the hardware to connect to the outside world. Mobile management information becomes all the more easily accessed and shared.

Your sales or management people can query stock levels, look at product information and work with a customer’s details. Sales people find Mobile's Visit Reports great for creating an action list of follow-up points whilst they are working with their clients, perhaps out on a construction site. The visit report then creates actions for their bisTrack business management desktop back at base and adds notes to the customer notepad.

We support Windows Mobile and CE devices and don’t lock you into any particular hardware. All part of our ‘open architecture, open access’ philosophy.

Benefits: Keep in touch wherever you are. Keep your customers in the loop by working with live data whilst out on site visits. Keep track of your visit actions by translating them into bisTrack messages when you’re back on home ground.

Testimonials

  • “A member of our buying group told us about bisTrack, although we looked at four or five other software packages. Key factors in the eventual selection of bisTrack were its SQL platform and our confidence in the people we dealt with.”
