In this document PC, Tablet, Tablet PC, Laptop are used interchangeable as a PC Platform.

The changing dynamics of the property market requires lettings agents, clerks and landlords to keep their focus on the ball. Maintaining a qualitative service and competitive edge is of the up most importance as well keeping costs down.

The past decade has shown the Inventory niche explode into a lucrative industry because of the Tenant Deposit Scheme aimed at protecting the Tenants.

Accurate reports in concise formats with a higher level of quality and detail are needed. On top of this Inventory Clerks are expected to deliver the reports at a quicker turnaround.

Now is the time to make the transition from manual, audio and PDA based systems to tablet, and laptop based solutions. None of the others can really compete with the power of the PC platforms. With the latest technology on tablet PCs weighing less than half a kilogram the property inventory software applications of today deliver great performance. Screen sizes are larger, the software is faster and the data is centralised on your PC.

This article key focus is on iAssist.

ADVANTAGES

iAssist is a Property Inventory Software website platform which has been develop with the expert in the property inventory market using the most streamlined process for completing an inventory ensuring that anyone completing inventories can increase productivity while maintaining quality.

FREE SOFTWARE

iAssist is FREE - it comes with a FREE invoice, client and property manager. Is that all? No, it also comes with a FREE book keeping tool. Anything else? It also has a FREE diary tool. WOW, essentially iAssist is a one stop shop (mind you - a FREE shop) for inventory clerks or anyone wanting to do inventories. However, the only cost to the users are on a 'report production basis' and these are highly competitive and I'd like to say even cheaper than costs charged by property inventory software on PDAs. FREE Property Inventory Software.

INCREASING SPEED WITH TEMPLATES

Imagine entering a property and knowing certain details before even entering that property. It has 4 bedrooms, semi detached with modern decor and furnishings - iAssist can automatically generate a property with modern decor, furnishings and bathroom, bedrooms, kitchen, etc even before you've entered the property. What's that? You want to customise these templates... Well iAssist comes with a library of templates to speed things up, but of course they're all customisable.

EASY TO USE AND INTUITIVE

The human eye picks up and recognises colours and images faster than text. The user interface has been designed to be intuitive to the eye as a result every item in the library (e.g. handle, toilet, lock, etc) has an icon with specific colours to represent them.

REPORTS

The report shows as much relevant info per screen as necessary so that you don't have to jump from one step to the next - as is common in PDA based software. PDAs have a lack of screen space which limits the information they can provide the user with. Through streamlining the inventory process, clerks can complete inventories up to 50% faster when compared to manual inventory services. Once an inventory is completed, any follow on jobs on that property can be completed 50% faster than the initial job carried out.

UNIQUE CUSTOMISABLE REPORT TEMPLATES

iAssist has the newest report standard and sets the new benchmark for inventory reports. It has eliminated the need for appendices, with a row of photo's shown and referenced coherently beside each photo. Reading the report doesn't require page turning any more it's simply clearer and insightful. The report is customisable; allowing you to control branding, colour, font and textual decoration. You can control or customise your disclaimer, license, and terms & conditions agreements and enable and disable certain aspects like key information according to your template specification. With iAssist you have full control over the software.

CONTROL YOUR OWN DATA

One of the problems with other property inventory software providers is that the user doesn't have control over the inventory data. iAssist saves all your data on your PC, so you are 100% in control. Be in control!

TEAM BASED AND POWERFUL WEB PORTAL

iAssist has been designed for inventory groups, allowing multiple tablet pcs to operate under a single iAssist account. This allows groups to share various reports with controlled allocated to the account manager.
