Is Inspect & Cloud worth it?
Our customers can save up to 80% of the entire process from inspections, to photo formatting, the move in/out process, etc. It actually cost you to NOT use a tool like Inspect & Cloud. Extra communication time, extra time/gas trips to office getting assignments, error free move out processing, and savings from employee resources adds up when you speed up, automate and streamline the inspection process.
How much does it actually save me?
One example would be if you paid a staff person $10 per hr 8 hrs per day and they completed the same work in 6 hrs instead of 8hrs. This would equate to 10 hours a week. If you have 5 inspectors then multiply that x5. Overall employees can be more productive for their work day versus a clipboard and it saves the entire office time and resources.
