ExpeData Launches naturalFORMS Hosted Mobile Data Capture Solution With Complete Forms Repository For Field Service

Game-changing data capture and forms management solution for iPad and Android tablets streamlines workflows, improves productivity, and reduces costs for mobile workforces of all sizes

ExpeData, a global leader in natural input technologies, has unveiled a hosted version of its naturalFORMS tablet application featuring a new self-service repository of business forms. Users can access unlimited forms from the repository, easily capture data on tablets, and seamlessly process straight-through to backend systems. The turnkey solution, available at www.naturalformsapp.com, eliminates paperwork and its related processing costs and provides unparalleled productivity improvements.

To assist users with rapid deployment of naturalFORMS, ExpeData has created a robust repository of standard business forms for use with the application.

Forms are available for over 30 field service industries including HVAC, plumbing, electrical, home inspection, property management and more. Unlimited standard forms are included free with the low monthly subscription price per device. Users can select and personalize these standard forms, or upload their own business forms for use with the application.

Using these electronic forms on the tablet device, mobile workers can easily capture information using handwriting and other methods of natural input. The solution also captures field notes, signatures, photos and drawings with annotations, and voice memos. Since most mobile workers are already comfortable with using handwriting and touch screens, user adoption is rapid and requires little if any training.

Information captured on the tablet forms is immediately interpreted and converted to digital data, verified for accuracy and completeness, and made available in standard file formats such as PDF and XML. Users who need direct integration to their backend business systems can leverage a well-defined library of application programming interfaces provided by ExpeData. Custom integration services are also available.

“With our new forms repository and hosted service, we have made it simple for field service organizations to deploy and scale the naturalFORMS solution with minimal investment and effort," said Bruce Heinrich, Product Manager - naturalFORMS solution, ExpeData. “naturalFORMS helps companies quickly transition from manual to fully automated mobile data capture and immediately realize the business benefits.”
