Using InspectER – The New Tablet App

If you follow Emergency Reporting on social media or subscribe to our newsletters, you’ve probably heard about the launch of InspectER – a mobile tablet app for inspectors, fire marshals and operations. Last week, we had a Virtual Thursday webinar dedicated to introducing InspectER and showing customers how to get the most out of this online/offline tablet app. If you missed this informative webinar (our highest-attended Virtual Thursday this year!), don’t worry; we have a recorded version here that you can listen to at your convenience.

Here’s a brief summary of what was covered in the Virtual Thursday webinar:

An overview of the benefits of InspectER, including:
Access to occupancy & building info anywhere, 24/7, whether online or not
Capture photos for each inspection observation
Conduct custom inspection activities on your tablet device just like when online
Synchronize your data quickly (minutes vs. days)

Where to get InspectER:
The app is downloadable in Google Play, Apple App Store and Windows Store (note: you must be on a tablet to download – the app is not optimized for use on mobile phones).
Do not download the old app (called “Occupancy”)

Levels of accessibility & configurations:
Level 1: Read-only access – all valid users can log in and read occupancy data. No inspections included. Sold on a per agency basis.
Level 2: Read & Edit – all valid users can read and edit occupancy data. No inspection capabilities included. Sold on a per station basis.
Level 3: Depending on number of licenses purchased, multiple users can view and complete inspections. This level can be paired with Level 1 or 2, or used on its own.
