In my seemingly never ending quest to improve efficiency and visibility into projects past and present I need information in a single spot, or two at the most. Right now we are scattered in a few different areas. In a perfect world everything would be in iPoint but for various reasons our notes have stuff like “will update later” or some variation. Just extra stuff to wade through.
So I thought I’d make the policy that only notes related to time would go in iPoint for invoicing reference and job details would go in a word doc or similar. But now I’m second guessing myself.
I was waiting for Smackdab to get the kinks worked out, full disclosure I’ve spent very little time in it, but now I’m wondering do I have the guys do time related notes in iPoint and shift to Smackdab for job related notes, like where an appletv is located or what was done on a given day.
I hope I’m making sense. My brain is fried after working on new initiatives for the past 7 days almost non stop.
Open to any and all suggestions.
We do of course have site plans marked up and spreadsheets with IP addresses and MAC addresses in separate locations that really can’t live in Smackdab as far as I know but just trying to finalize a system that we can run today and not have to change course in a few months when we hopefully start using Smackdab more as new modules are released.
Communication is also big so I’m hoping the email tie in with Smackdab will help with various people talking to clients and provide visibility for all of us.
