Inside Buildertrend: No cell service, no problem




The Building Code show

Summary: Podcast Episode 140: Inside Buildertrend – offline capabilities Every other Thursday, we’ll give our listeners a glimpse into the inner workings of our business with our new “Inside Buildertrend” series on “The Building Code.” What are our teams working on? What features are coming up and how will they benefit our users? What data and research are being collected behind the scenes? Tune in as we take a look inside Buildertrend.   How will the new offline Daily Logs help our customers? On this second episode of “Inside Buildertrend,” Austin Eilers, a product manager, joins Zach and Charley to chat about the exciting new offline capabilities – specifically offline Daily Logs.   Hear about how these new functionalities will positively impact the user experience when working and documenting information from the field.   What are the key takeaways? The value of customer critiques: We take our customers’ feedback very seriously. When we receive criticism from our users, we take notes, create lists and prioritize updates that will make their experience a better one.   Offline Daily Logs: Now live for select users. This new offline capability will allow information to be added within Buildertrend’s Daily Logs feature without the need for cell service or internet connection.   Offline Time Clock capabilities are next: As we roll out the offline Daily Logs to our users, we're also working on offline Time Clock capabilities that will further improve the way our customers work from the job site.   Why is this cool for Buildertrend users? Gone are the days of remembering to add important information when cell service is restored. With our new offline Daily Logs, you can document project details right away, and they’ll automatically sync when your cellular or internet connection returns. Offline Daily Logs are currently live for some users but will be available for everyone in the near future. And be sure to keep an eye out. There are more offline capabilities coming soon!     LINKS AND MORE   Related content:   Check out the last “Inside Buildertrend” episode to get a recap of the biggest product updates that happened in 2021.
