With so many apps out there for business, it’s hard to know which ones to choose that will work for you. It’s good to make the most of this technology as it’s out there waiting to be used, but if you’re new to using apps for your business then perhaps you should dip your toe in first and start off with the best app for your industry:
Education
The Remind app was one of the most downloaded education category apps in the United States in 2018, with over 11 million installs. It is a communication platform that means students can send real-time messages to their whole class, a group they’re working with, or just an individual person. It also enables students to share photos and handouts as well as translate messages into over 85 languages.
Construction
Buildertrend is a construction management system used by home builders, specialty contractors, remodelers, and general contractors. Combining project scheduling, project management, financial management, customer management, and service management in one single suite, Buildertrend is a cloud-based platform that can be accessed online with a computer or on a mobile device.
Logistics
According to Flex Fleet commercial truck rentals, Fleetio go is one of the best apps available in for managing fleets. It allows managers to not only track their fleet and obtain real-time fleet data, but it also lets them update any information at any time, manage multiple fleets, and allows them to view and manipulate permissions, which is good for security.
Other features that allow them to report any issues, access contact information of fleet drivers remotely, get reminders for service or maintenance, obtain information pertaining to fuel, use barcode scanning to auto-populate data, view fleet profiles, and view and add photos, comments, or documents.
Travel
In just one industry alone, there are so many apps to choose from, but one of the lesser-known but perhaps most useful apps is TripIt for travel organization. This is somewhere you can keep all of your travel confirmations, flight bookings, and hotel reservations together. It allows for easy forwarding of all your travel information and organizes it in chronological order for you. It doesn’t just stop at flight and hotel either, TripIt will organize your car rental documents, ferry and train journeys, ground transport and home rental confirmations, too and you can even share them with others.
Healthcare
Insight Optics is an innovative app which is helping people to get the eye care that they need. Insight Optics gives Primary Care Physicians (PCPs) the ability to provide eye exams during yearly whole body checkups. To use it, a PCP will have an ophthalmoscope that is compatible with their smartphone camera, which means they can take high-resolution images of the patient’s retina from their smartphone. They can then share these photos through the app with an ophthalmologist for further review. This gives patients a valuable insight into their eye health; it empowers them with information so that they can decide if they need to see an eye specialist or not.
