Device Magic review

Device Magic lists inspections, work orders, daily reports, T&M, JSAs and incident reports as its core uses, and its Max plan includes unlimited forms and submissions with offline access. Capture options are broad: photos, signatures, map overlays, NFC, area measurement and driver license scans. Built-in integrations send submissions to email, Box, Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, Amazon S3, SFTP, Slack, Salesforce, SQL and Zapier, and output formats include PDF, Excel, JSON and XML. Max also covers dispatch and scheduling with recurring dispatch, live data sources, customizable Word reports, API access and project management. Enterprise adds white label, analytics and SSO. The drawbacks are pricing and overlap: neither plan shows a price, both need a 3 user minimum with annual billing, and the pricing page now points support to the GoCanvas Help Center, so buyers may want to compare it directly with GoCanvas, which publishes prices.
