Streamlined work evidence through photo reports
As a manager, you may need reliable reports from your field staff. Photos are often more effective than calls or text messages – taking a picture is quick, simple, and requires little effort. Instead of spending time writing detailed reports, employees can focus on their actual work.
Photo reports are ideal for tasks such as field inspections or waste collection. By attaching photos to geographic locations, managers can verify where the images were taken, track the full route of remote employees, and accurately assess the quality of their work.
How the photo plugin works?
A module for transferring images from mobile devices to the server is available in Headwind MDM Premium. Besides delivering photos, the photo plugin tracks device locations and adds geotags to images.
The photo plugin offers the following supervision options:
- View photos taken by a certain user at a specific date and time.
- Label photos by creation time, location, and even address (if taken in a city).
- Search for photos taken at the specific addresses.
- Open the map at the location where a photo is taken.
Organize and declutter images
Besides supervising, the photo plugin assists in automatic removal of old photos from mobile devices. This saves free storage space and prevents occasional work breaks because of the lack of image storage.
Image files could be organized on the server by storing them in subdirectories related to devices and dates, making it easier to integrate with third party apps through sharing the image directories.
Version 2 supports processing of non-image files. Most important file types are logs – using photo plugin to retrieve logs from mobile devices makes it helpful for technical support workers or developers of corporate apps.
Free trial is available
Photo plugin is available for the free trial, either in the cloud or by upgrading an on-premise Community version.
