There is huge growth in mobile everywhere. Every day we see this by the proliferation of fancy mobile devices like iPhone, Android, and iPad, but what we might not consider as strongly is how we all shift more and more of our internet activities over to mobile devices.
Utilizing mobile devices, company’s can improve productivity and streamline communication across the business. This technology not only impacts productivity and profitability, but the ability to compete for new business.
For example, using an iPad, Android or some other smart phone device, accounting software applications can be remotely accessed to deliver customer account access, order entry, order status, customer look-up, and inventory look-up in real-time. In doing so, field representatives can access valuable information whether in the office, on a job site, or on the road. This eliminates the mess and inaccuracies of using traditional job folders, and allows field representatives to save time and manage with real-time data at their fingertips. And as all team members use the same data, companies can improve workflow and communication for optimal execution.
The accounting software and mobile device solution can also help contractors to compete for bids and additional profit with tools to easily track and manage change orders in real-time directly from the field. Contractors can analyze, identify, estimate, budget, propose, execute and bill for the variety of changes that occur during project execution. This leads to additional profit.
I heard a horrifying story about how a large a US based B2B company with solid revenue streams coming from their e-commerce web-site simply had to abandon critical mobilization projects, and as a consequence faced revenue drops and a fading customer base.
We all know that if we cannot serve our customers timely and effectively, then we will lose them as customers. This is exactly why the growing demand for mobile access is critical and urgent for any company with internet based B2C or B2B revenue. Recently one such company, Cougar Mountain Software, Inc. recognized this growing need and executed such a strategy.
Cougar Mountain Software realized that since they were already serving thousands of customers, it just made sense to make a nice iPhone or Android application interface to their accounting software applications. As a result, customers were comforted in knowing their accounting software vendor had their best future interests and success in mind.
Companies utilizing a complete accounting software solution on their mobile devices are able to set a new pace for order execution, while effectively managing their customer needs. Mobile device access can and will impact a company’s bottom line and increase their ability to compete.
Publishes accounting software, fund accounting software, and point of sale software and hardware. Cougar Mountain has provided the software answer for more than 20,000 national clients across a variety of key industries.View the original article here
