The primary difference between the Standard and Premier editions is that Premier adds an interactive visual calendar style scheduler, and works better for multi-inspector firms, and contains an expanded version of Office Management with more customizable fields and options for data collection and sales reports.

Both editions include a full-featured Custom Form Studio utility, a selection of residential forms to start, and a full Word Processor area for creating new documents to use with inspections or stand-alone.  Both come with a free year Subscription and Mobile apps. These packages are ideal for seasoned inspectors who know how they want their reports organized, or who are new to the industry but want a powerful and extremely flexible package.

The Focus edition, as its name implies, “focuses” on ready-made setups already designed specifically for a particular geographic area or industry. These products provide specific forms and content to get your inspection business started more easily in that area or expertise. The forms and content included in each Focus edition was designed specifically by professionals is those fields who polished their content over a period of time. This benefits others who want to start with their tried and tested way of inspecting and reporting.

Focus is ideal for the single inspector just starting out, or who is looking for a value packaged solution with content already tailored by other professionals who share a similar reporting philosophy. Advanced program options usually not needed by a single inspector are not included to keep the program easier to start using. Inspector stays focused on the task at hand by using the setup provided right out of the box. However Focus products do include the Custom Form Studio utility for changing and customizing the included narratives and forms, and creating entirely new forms should the need arise.  Focus products also  include a one year Subscription and Mobile apps.

If you believe a Focus edition is right for you, learn about the respective product vendors reporting philosophy, the content they’ve included in their products, and how they have it set up to work. A Focus product is a great way to get started, but may also be upgraded later to other editions to expand program features without losing or changing any of the existing “focused” content with which you started.  You can grow or expand your business, even to a multi-inspector firm.
