Instant Alerts Change the Game on Mobile Data Collection

VisitBasis pioneers in offering instant activity alerts to time-sensitive, retail-related businesses

VisitBasis has just unveiled a major new feature to its retail mobile data collection software.

More than just integrating with a messenger-type tool, the award-winning company from Hallandale Beach, FL, pioneers in offering a real-time field activity alert solution.

VisitBasis now sends automatic notifications to chat rooms of any activity being performed in the field, according to pre-set parameters, along with links to the activity details. This opens up a new set of possibilities in keeping managers on top of the initiatives being performed at the point-of-sale.

For example, instant alerts can become an essential tool in the following scenarios:

  • A group that manages product merchandising can receive a message every time a planogram audit is performed and react immediately to any out-of-stocks.
  • Sales operations can receive automatic notifications every time an order is placed.
  • Franchise operations can be alerted when a certain critical store has been audited and automatically access the audit report.

“Our customers rely on the ability of making time-sensitive decisions in order to attract and keep their own customers,” adds Sergey Gorbunov, CEO of VisitBasis. “Beyond monitoring, our alert solution allows them to be notified straight away of any field situation that might require their immediate attention.”

Information-rich charts at a touch of a button make VisitBasis the go-to solution for mobile data collection

Mobile data collection is considered a game-changer in many industries. However, compiling and analyzing large amounts of data can be a challenge, especially in fast-paced sales and marketing environments.

VisitBasis Tech Llc. has just unveiled its platform for analyzing mobile data: VisitBasis Analytics is a one-touch solution for visualizing compiled data in chart format.

Offline Mode Slashes Costs of Mobile Data Collection

Wireless data plans become optional as software providers introduce offline data collection.

Mobile data collection has been transformative in retail-related businesses that include manufacturer merchandising, sales and marketing companies, and point-of-sale auditing.

However, many companies – especially small to medium-sized – have been reluctant to adopt this cost and time-saving technology, not because of the cost of the mobile data collection software but due to the wireless data charges associated with having hundreds (sometimes thousands!) of field reps using cell phones and tablets to do their jobs.

VisitBasis, the award-winning software company from Hallandale Beach, FL, has been a pioneer in solving this dilemma: Its retail mobile data collection solution comes with offline capabilities since the very beginning.

On the VisitBasis App, when field reps and auditors select to work on offline mode, they synchronize collected data only when they are connected to the Internet over a Wi-Fi network, reducing wireless data charges to virtually zero. In this way, they could technically connect to the Internet only twice a day: Once in the morning to download the visits and tasks that should be performed throughout the day, and in the evening to upload the information collected.

VisitBasis offers a complete field team management solution for merchandising, field marketing, retail audit and outside sales, comprised of a web-based admin and supervision interface, and a mobile data collection app for field reps. The VisitBasis App works on Apple and Android smartphones and tablets and can be downloaded for free from App Store and Google Play.

“The Customer is Always Right”, says CEO of Software Company

Price per active user starts at $24 per month for the VisitBasis Merchandising & Retail Audit module and goes up to $34 for Merchandising/Retail Audit/Field Sales, which includes mobile ordering with custom purchase orders.

VisitBasis Launches New Version in Spanish and Portuguese with Additional Features

New capabilities include GPS verification of visits and tasks performed, as well as the ability to generate photo reports

Miami, FL – VisitBasis has just released a new version of its field activity and visit management system.

This new version is available in Spanish and Portuguese, in addition to the already existing English and Russian environments, for both its browser-based office interface and its mobile app. It comes as an answer to the requests of VisitBasis growing customer base both in the United States and in Latin America.

Additionally, this release comes with extended features:

GPS Validation of Visits and Tasks

Visit Details/GPS window on VisitBasis with GPS Confirmation

Previous versions of VisitBasis Retail Execution already had extensive GPS monitoring capabilities. Now their developers made it easy to access confirmation that the visits and tasks assigned to a rep were performed at the customer location they were supposed to be. This helps in the detection of fraudulent check-ins and in the correctly mapping of field issues and activities.

Photo Reports
Visit photo reports can be easily generated in this new version of VisitBasis Retail Execution. Managers have the option to see a report with the photos taken at any single visit by simply clicking on a report link on the visit summary screen or they can generate a photo report for any single or set of users and/or customers through VisitBasis’ reporting tool. These reports can then be saved as PDFs, printed, or shared with other people. See the video below (or click here) for a walkthrough of the VisitBasis Photo Reports.
