Secapp’s reporting features offer digital tools for organizations to collect critical data and analyze the results. With Secapp the data can be easily collected and processed to larger overall reports without investing in new devices.
The reporting can be done from the very same smart devices the end users already have and the supervisor can see the entire process from start to finish in real time. The same report template can be filled by multiple users at the same time.
The reports can be exported from Secapp to Word and PDF files.
