The company has yet to address the issue of losing photo captions when manipulating photos. Overall it is a good tool to use in the field, but losing work lowers productivity.
Our office has implemented iPads in the field for our adjusters. We want to use one program to capture all claim-related data. Xactimate for iPad seemed to be the solution. We are very happy with how the application works but there is one huge design flaw. The mobile app does not resize photographs. It’s taking and attaching full sized iPad photographs to the ESX file. So you end up having huge file sizes and huge photo report sizes. We had a photo report with less than 100 pictures that was over 250 Mb as a pdf. Files of that size are literally breaking the claims management system we upload the reports to. It also greatly increases upload time as the adjuster sends the file into the office for processing. We have resorted to taking photos with the iPad’s camera, then doing a batch conversion Nehemiah’s importing into the ESX. We need a one-stop-shop in the mobile app, because as you probably know, time is an adjuster’s most valuable resource. Please make the app more functional! One additional comment: The scrolling dates/times for date of loss, inspection date, etc. is not user friendly as claims I often encounter are up to years old. Rolling that scroll wheel back years is an extreme effort of patience. Thank you all, I hope to see continued improvement of the app.
I never use the photos function in Xact because it does not send a copy to the tablets photo app. As a result, if something happens to the esx file whether on the tablet or in transit in the cloud, there are no copies of the photos. I do not want to go back out to get photos I’ve already taken. Plus, if that were to happen, the risk is not in the same condition as it was at the time of my original inspection. There are so many reasons that would not be advantageous. If the photos were saved on the tablets photo app I would absolutely use the photo function on the mobile version, as it seems to be really good. Until that day, I’ll stick with my photo app.
I've just started using this app, but I gotta say I prefer it over dragging out the laptop on site to sketch. I'm still getting used to the interface, but it's becoming more familiar with each project. I haven't found it yet, but I hope that it has, or will have, Bluetooth support for my Leica, then it would be perfect.
The more and more I use it the more I become more familiar with it, it is becoming a more valuable tool in the field
This app is easy to use and great in saving time at the desktop end of it with its ease of your and functions. The best feature is the measurements of a room with out using a laser or tape measure and the accuracy is second to none.
Good to see the Xactimate app getting better and better with each update. Xactware is constantly working on the app and supporting which is good. Back to using the app exclusively, everyday!!!
This app has been a huge advantage for our company in many ways. I highly recommend this. Very few small bugs that I know will be fixed. No complaints! Love this!
