Cortex Software makes FieldCenter, software for creating mobile forms for Windows Mobile handhelds. How to contact us.

FieldCenter makes it easy for companies with remote workers to replace paper forms with more efficient mobile forms on handheld devices such as PDAs and SmartPhones.

Mobile Forms Applications, Simplified

With FieldCenter, creating mobile applications is simplified by eliminating the need for programming and new infrastructure. The FieldCenter mobile forms software enables everyday field staff administrators to create tailored PDA forms for any number of data collection tasks, in a number of industries.

Mobile forms data synchronization is simple and secure.

Online or Offline Use

FieldCenter uses a "Mobile Client" application on PDAs to present mobile forms in an intuitive, user-friendly interface. This enables mobile workers to use FieldCenter forms either online or offline. They can then choose to send collected data to the central server when convenient, either wirelessly while in the field, or cradled when they return to home base.

Secure

Collected data is securely transmitted via internet to a central web-based application, where administrators can review forms, generated reports, export data and much more. Data is stored using 128bit RSA encryption, transmitted over the internet using 128bit SSL encryption, and applications are password protected.

No Programming

Some of the standard fields available for building forms include:

  • Text
  • Numeric
  • Yes/No
  • Multiple Choice
  • Date Select
  • Date Stamp
  • Signature Capture
  • Digital Photo Capture
  • Video Capture
  • GPS Location Stamp
  • Barcode Scan
  • RFID Scan
  • Magnetic Card Swipe
  • Mapping (GIS)

Real-Time Reporting

FieldCenter's web-based dashboard provides tools to work with collected data. Users can view forms, analyze data, generate reports, and download data in a number of standard formats such as XML or Microsoft Excel.

Guaranteed-Delivery Data Sync

Even in areas of bad network coverage, communication errors during data communication will not affect the integrity of your data. Using sync resume and field-level sync technology, data will always be delivered from the handheld PDA to the server intact.

Over-The-Air Deployment and Update

FieldCenter Mobile Client keeps itself up-to-date with the most recent version, without any configuration by the user.

Mobile Data Safety

Data safety is top priority, so FieldCenter Mobile Client provides comprehensive backup and restore capability on mobile devices. For example, data can be regularly backed up to memory cards such as SD and miniSD.
