Technician App Overview

Use an intuitive iOS/Android app to manage schedules, streamline inspections, and sync with the back office.

Stay organized in the field

Technicians can clearly see their daily schedule and the work ahead, with visibility up to 30 days in the future.

Every visit opens with the information they need (property details, assets, past inspections) so there’s no confusion about what to do next.

Capture any detail while onsite

Essential makes documentation effortless. Technicians can take photos, record deficiencies, and add notes directly from the app, ensuring nothing gets missed or left to memory.

Everything captured is neatly organized and ready for the final report the moment the inspection is complete.

Keep working even without internet

Field environments don’t always have reliable connectivity, so the Technician App is built to keep going even offline.

Technicians can complete inspections, take photos, and enter all required information without service. As soon as a connection is restored, everything syncs automatically, ensuring nothing is lost and no one is blocked.

Stay in sync with the office

As technicians work, all updates flow instantly to the back office.

Dispatchers and admins can follow progress in real time, review results, and prepare next steps without waiting for paperwork to come back.
