 Greetings!

 

As the New Year rolls around, it is always interesting to look back on the prior year and try to recognize the trends that occurred that point to where the Business of Information Technology is heading.  For me 2014 could almost be dubbed "The Year of Uber".

 

But Uber has proven that any Field Service Person (in this case a Taxi Driver) with a Mobile Phone and an App coupled to a Cloud Server can duplicate the experience for a fraction of the cost. The next logical step will be delivery of other services and based on what we at Appolis have seen at the end of 2014, interest is exploding.

 

Will 2015 be the year of Field Logistics, Warehouse, and Inventory Management as an app?

 

With the convergence of successful Starts-Ups such as Uber proving it can be done, Maturing apps such as the Appolis WithoutWire™ Mobile Field Service app, and an improving Economy that will encourage more innovation in the SMB space, I suspect it very well will be.

 

I hope you enjoy this edition of our Newsletter.

Achieving ROI through Mobile Inventory Automation

       

One common challenge Clients face when sourcing mobile inventory automation is presenting management with their findings. Looking strictly at price is common.
