Common Challenges
For those who've been running cleaning robots for a while, these are some of these common challenges you have most likely encountered:
- App Overload: Using multiple brands of robots often means juggling several disconnected apps. This fragmentation can lead to inefficiency and confusion.
- Training Complexity: Each new tool or app requires staff training. Multiple systems mean more time spent on onboarding and keeping your team up-to-date.
- Scalability Issues: While most included apps work well for a handful of robots, they become unwieldy when managing more than five units. This lack of scalability can hinder your expansion plans.
- Maintenance Tracking: Keeping up with robot maintenance can be confusing, often resulting in delayed servicing. This can lead to decreased efficiency and potentially shorter robot lifespans.
- Inconsistent Cleaning: Without a centralized system, ensuring consistent cleaning across your premises becomes challenging. Performance tracking is complicated when data is spread across multiple platforms.
- Multi-Location Management: As your operation grows across different locations, managing robots can become chaotic without a unified system.
- Limited Customization: Many apps don't allow you to customize your dashboard to suit your specific needs. Analytics are often split between multiple apps (typically one per brand), making comprehensive analysis difficult.
- Time-Consuming Reporting: Generating reports on your cleaning operations can be a tedious and time-consuming process when data is scattered across various platforms.
These issues are among the most frequent complaints we heard from users before they discovered FieldBots OS.
