IPAD TECHNOLOGY ADDS CHOICE AND OPENS OPPORTUNITIES
Apple’s increasingly ubiquitous iPads are set to make their mark as powerful business management tools for the pest management industry.
Using web-based communication to provide real time (do it now, see it now) functionality, these almost A4 sized ultra slim line, fingertip controlled tablets (the official description is “slates”), with their:
- Ultra high resolution displays;
- Finger powered navigation;
- Zoom-in and zoom outability; and
- Lighting fast communication speeds
… are currently being hooked up to remote servers to take reporting, scheduling,job tasking, and even pest management sales and marketing into an exciting new age of streamlined effectiveness and efficiency.
Mobile communications have come a long way in the nine years since Temisoft first unveiled hand-held personal digital assistants (PDA’s) loaded with ServicePRO software onto the fledgling computerised pest management market at AEPMA’s National Conference at Caloundra in 2002.
