Managers automatically receive detailed records of who checked out each device and when they returned it. They also get email alerts if a device isn’t returned on time or needs repair.

Here are just a few of the benefits customers experience after making this simple change to their operations.

  1. Save Thousands of Annual Labor Hours: The self-serve solution is fast, eliminating the line that forms at shift change when enterprise mobile devices are handled manually. In fact, customers have reported the time in between an employee clocking in and their first scan drops from an average of 13 minutes to just seconds.

By eliminating this shift change friction, employees spend more time on task. This productivity boost adds up across employees, shifts and locations. In a year, our customers recovered an average of 7,000 hours per facility. In reallocated employee wages, this is an average of $175,000.
