3 Things that you should NEVER forget when going mobile

2. Ask for feedback from the experts….your END USERS – Don’t forget to ask for feedback from the field workers that will actually be using the mobile application. It doesn’t matter what the application does if the mobile worker isn’t able to use it successfully. Simple is better, so plan ahead.

3. Take the time to train your team – Not everyone is as familiar with technology as we’d like. Someone needs to help others understand how to operate their new device (even how to turn it on). Going from a paper work order with a 2 way radio to a mobile computer with a wireless work order system is a paradigm shift so plan ahead. Even better, create a user guide for them.

Extending your first point, it is important to test the solution with different OS versions. Be ready to experience surprises there.

Secondly, if the solution involves communication support it is important to test the software with WiFi, LAN, ActiveSync, GPRS/3G, with special focus on performance as some networks can be quite slow.
