Frequently Asked Questions
For some operations, a consumer smartphone might be the right tool for the job. But for those who need a more robust (drop-proof, spill-proof, and temperature-proof) solution, who need to lock-down the device, or who require extended battery power, an ePOD device is probably a better fit.
Not necessarily. An ePOD device can scan barcodes faster than a consumer smartphone — even when the barcode has been poorly printed or damaged, is under shrinkwrap, or is being scanned in low light conditions (such as in the back of a van). If drivers are only scanning the occasional, well-printed barcode though, a consumer smartphone will do the job.
As standard, we recommend 1GB of data per month as a minimum to run Stream (whether that’s on a rugged ePOD device or a consumer smartphone), though the exact amount will vary depending on your individual operation and requirements.
Not long at all — if they can use a consumer smartphone, they can use a rugged ePOD device.
