SiteHound Desktop

SiteHound Desktop is a single-user desktop-based inspection management product licensed per-user and used to manage inspection checklist templates, maintain a comment library, manage inspection data files, link pictures, and produce reports.

  • Inspection templates can be created for any type of field inspection using the template editor and can be modified as necessary for adapting the inspection process to new needs or requirements.
  • A comment library can be managed by inspectors in order to pre-define conditions, comments, findings, and recommendations that can be selected and automatically added to inspection reports through a short series of clicks on a mobile device.
  • Inspection data files are created, modified, and reviewed using the inspection editor and can be synchronized with mobile devices using USB, Infrared, or Bluetooth connections between a PC or laptop and a mobile device.
  • Linking pictures to inspection items using SiteHound Desktop allows an inspector to emphasize conditions and findings.
  • Report templates produce different types of professional reports based on the inspection data files, such as a detailed inspection report or a summary of findings report. Reports are generated as PDF documents for printing, electronic distribution and storage, e-mailing, or publishing to a web site.
