No more "other photo 6"
As many photos as each question needs, never a fixed set of slots.
Features
Built for the way surveys actually happen
On a ladder, in a loft, at the end of a lane with no signal. SiteNotes is designed around the surveyor on site and the office that turns the notes into a report.
The field app
Offline first. Not offline as an afterthought.
The survey lives on the iPad or phone. Every answer and photo is saved the moment you make it, so a dead battery or a dropped signal never costs you a survey.
- Your jobs arrive from the office, ready to start
- Big, glove-friendly choices, and counters for the accommodation schedule
- Jump straight to whatever is still missing before you leave
- Syncs in the background once you're back in signal
Survey templates
Your questions, your choices, your rules
The survey is defined by a template the office manages: sections, questions, choice lists and which answers are required. Change a list or add a question and every device picks it up at its next sync.
- Follow-up questions appear only when they apply
- Each job keeps the template version it started on
- Repeat a section as often as the property needs: every floor, every outbuilding
Photos & defects
Evidence attached to the thing it shows
Take a photo from inside the question it belongs to: the rear elevation, the boiler, the crack above the bay window. Add as many as you need; each lands in the right place in the report.
- Photos resized on the device, so uploads are quick on a weak signal
- Uploads queue up and finish in the background
- Every defect with its own details, comments and photos
Defects
Damp, timber decay, insect attack, deleterious materials and movement, each a question of its own.
Reinstatement cost
The rebuild figure, without the spreadsheet
SiteNotes takes the property type, construction and floor area from the survey and applies your practice's own rate table. Garage, outbuildings, boundary walls, fees, GST and inflation are added, and every line goes into the report.
- Rate tables kept by the office, with the date they apply from
- The figure updates on the iPad as you type
- No copying figures between a survey and a workbook
Back office & reports
Run the practice from one dashboard
Book and assign jobs, follow them from instruction to report, and review surveys as they arrive. Send one back with a note and it's on the surveyor's device at the next sync.
- Jobs by status, surveyor and client, with what's overdue
- A PDF report with your name, logo and colour
- People, templates and rate tables, all in one place
- A history of who changed what, and when
Data protection
Personal data treated as personal data
Surveys hold names, prices and addresses. SiteNotes is being built with the Data Protection (Jersey) Law 2018 in mind from the start.
- Each practice's data kept apart from every other's
- Surveyors see their own jobs; the office sees the practice's
- Sign-in per person, kept in the device's secure keychain
Jersey DPL 2018
Designed around the island's data protection law.
