Key takeaways for DataSplice Client
Where is it heading?
The industrial mobile market is shifting toward native hardware integration and high-compliance storage, areas where DataSplice currently lacks parity. Without immediate stability improvements, the app risks losing its enterprise foothold to competitors like Allflex Connect.
- Frequent application crashes disrupt primary workflows, which forces field users to abandon the app for manual logging methods.
- iPad loading failures prevent core service access, which erodes the utility of the platform for tablet-dependent industrial operations.
The SWOT
- Configurable business rules lower IT total cost of ownership
- Offline mode ensures continuous field productivity
- Integrate native wireless reader connectivity
- Add HIPAA-compliant cloud storage for medical markets
