WOWClowd, a cable test platform that uses a combination of the test technician’s smart phone, an app for the phone, and cloud storage to provide access to test results, project-management tools and customer floor plans, will soon support integration with certification level testers, fully supporting the import of 3rd party certified test results.
The new functionality will be demonstrated at the 2015 BICSI Winter Conference later this month. The company says that it has received consistent requests for integration with certification level testers manufactured by companies such as Fluke, Ideal and JDSU. As a result, WOWClowd says this feature development became a top priority for the company's engineers.
“Our customers spoke and we listened and, as a result, adding certification test capabilities to our solution will soon be a reality," says Carey Gill, vice president of product for WOWClowd. "The capability to upload and integrate certified test results with our exclusive project and facilities management tools will provide a superior end user experience in a class of its own."
WOWClowd's end-to-end cable test solution leverages mobile cloud technology; via the platform, project managers can create work orders, upload floor plans, drag/drop endpoints, all from the cloud. Technicians then initiate testing from their mobile device and feed test results, pictures, video, GPS coordinates in real time to a collaborative project management solution easily accessible for all project stakeholders at the cloud.
The integration of third-party certification functionality to WOWClowd’s technology platform will allow subscribers the ability to upload and import 3rd party certifier test results directly to WOWClowd, where they can assign clients, sites, work orders, upload floor plans, match patch panels and ports and run reports. The new integration functionality is key, contends the company, as it means the WOWClowd platform can now be experienced industry-wide, regardless of certification requirements or tester preference.
WOWClowd CEO Steve Kanne, concludes, “Our mobile cloud capability significantly improves productivity, collaboration and profitability as owners, project managers, field personnel and end-customers now have real time access to the cloud where test results, project management tools, customer floor plans, and other project documentation are updated collected, time-stamped, stored and backed up. The WOWClowd Solution is an affordable, game-changing product that is revolutionizing the cable testing industry.”
