How do I digitize field operations or remote workforce processes using Zoho apps?


Info

Zoho offers mobile-first tools that help digitize field activities and remote workforce management:

  1. Zoho Creator:

    • Build custom mobile apps for field reporting, data capture, GPS check-ins, or delivery confirmations.

    • Offline mode allows data capture without internet, syncing once reconnected.

  2. Zoho People:

    • Employees can log attendance, apply for leave, and mark check-in/check-out from remote locations.

  3. Zoho Forms:

    • Used by field staff to fill in inspection reports, customer feedback, or on-site checklists.

  4. Zoho Cliq:

    • Enable instant communication between remote teams.

Example:
A real estate firm uses Zoho Creator to allow site inspectors to submit reports via mobile with location tagging and photo uploads.

This eliminates paperwork, speeds up reporting, and ensures real-time updates from anywhere.
