Complete inspections faster

Essential streamlines inspection workflows so technicians can move quickly and stay focused on the work.

Property and asset details carry forward automatically, eliminating repetitive data entry and reducing the chance of errors.

Search and filter during inspections

Technicians can locate any asset with ease using filters for type, location, tag, status, and more. They can also scan a barcode to pull up the correct device instantly.

Especially in large or complex buildings, techs spend less time searching and more time inspecting.

Identify and track deficiencies

Technicians can record deficiencies with comments and internal notes. Each deficiency is automatically organized and tied to the specific asset, ensuring nothing gets lost or overlooked.

The back office can review and follow up immediately, allowing you to address issues quickly and keep customers informed.

Create polished, NFPA-compliant reports

Once the inspection is finished, Essential turns technician inputs into a professional report. Technicians can review it on the spot before sending it to the back office to ensure everything is accurate.

Report templates are fully customizable, giving you complete control over how your NFPA-compliant reports look and read.
