Comparisons
Pick the right method for the job.
Remote video does not replace every inspection, and a meeting tool does not produce an inspection record. These comparisons lay out where each approach wins, where it fails, and what the trade actually costs.
Virtual vs on-site inspection
Where a remote video inspection replaces a truck roll — and where sending someone out is still the right call.
vs Zoom / Teams
General-purpose meeting tools carry the video. They do not produce evidence, a chain of custody, or a report.
vs FaceTime / WhatsApp
It is fast, everybody has it, and it puts customer contact details and inspection evidence on personal devices.
vs photo upload apps
Asynchronous upload is cheap per job and expensive per re-do. Live guidance gets it right the first time.
vs truck rolls
The cheapest dispatch is the one that never leaves the depot — and the second cheapest arrives with the right part.
