TurboSite v4.1 Adds Industry First Editable PDF Forms Frontend for Mobile Field Reporting

IMSI/Design, a pioneer in mobile solutions for engineering and construction, this week has announced TurboSite Pro v4.1, TurboSite Plus v4.1 and TurboSite Standard v4.1, the award-winning app series for mobile field reporting.

Topping the list of new features is the industry’s first editable PDF forms-driven fronted for mobile site evaluations.

“For the first time, a company doing a site evaluation can drive the process visually or use a more traditional ‘clipboard & forms’ approach,” stated Royal Farros, CEO of IMSI/Design.  “Not only can any multipage PDF form be viewed, but TurboSite uniquely supports text entry and checkbox editing on those forms, too.  This is a big win for companies since the majority of site evaluations are still forms based.  It’s also another way TurboSite is fundamentally different from all other viewing & markup apps in mobile.”

New features in the TurboSite v4.1 update include:

• Editable PDF Form Support — Industry’s first true text box and checkbox editing is now supported in multipage PDF form documents
• Cloud Storage Syncing — Open/Save directly to Dropbox, Box, WebDav and FTP servers. And the software displays sync status
• PDF Reporting Enhancements — New customize PDF reports with a company logo, header, etc.
• Easy GeoMark Search Filters — Predefined  search filters display and report items based on Title, Notes, Punch Key, Status, Assigned, Location, Deadline, Video, Audio, and Photo Names for easy operation
• GeoMark Recent Search — Recent search queries are saved for quick access
• Photo Locator Map — When taking or importing pictures, geolocation text is automatically created and hyperlinked to available maps of the area
• Push Notifications — Stay up to date with the latest updates and critical product communication
• iOS 8 updates and more small features

These new features in this version 4.1 update can be seen below in a new product-based video on YouTube.
