For us, offline data entry is critical and fulcrum is fairly unique in that.
Easy to customize and fast deployment for out surveyors into the field. Affordable and reliable.
Easy to build apps, easy to use, easy to download and affordable.
We have found Fulcrum to be an excellent tool for our business and have recommended it to at least 5 businesses that we work closely with.
It has done everything that we required. It was easy to setup and is easy to use.
The worksite supervisor and an employee representative will walk-through the job site at the beginning of the job and once a week. Discuss at weekly safety meeting
