Recon Software vs. Spreadsheets and Whiteboards
Spreadsheets, whiteboards and group texts get recon started, but they don't update in real time and they don't show the whole shop the same picture. Here is how ReconDeck compares.
Spreadsheets, whiteboards and group texts get recon started — and then they stop keeping up. They don't update in real time, they don't show the whole shop the same picture, and the moment someone forgets to update a cell, the board is wrong. ReconDeck compares like this:
| Capability | ReconDeck | Spreadsheets & whiteboards |
|---|---|---|
| Real-time updates | ||
| TV visibility for the whole shop | ||
| Stage timers | ||
| Overdue aging alerts | ||
| Technician assignments | ||
| Parts tracking | ||
| Photos attached to the vehicle | ||
| Cost records per vehicle | ||
| Full vehicle history | ||
| Mobile updates from the bay |
The difference is that ReconDeck is built to be read by a whole shop at once and updated from a phone in the bay. A spreadsheet is only as current as the last person who remembered to edit it.See the live TV dashboard.
