Why a rugged tablet pc is still a great idea for enterprise mobility

The advent of iPads and similar devices has created a surge of interest in putting technology int eh hands of mobile workers. Consumers everywhere can now use remote devices for all manner of tasks, from browsing the web to taking photos. The rapid proliferation of such devices and theircomparatively low cost – naturally leads consumers to wonder whether rugged tablet PCs and other ruggedized devices are the best option for field use.

Some facts.

While the initial purchase cost is more expensive, total cost of ownership for rugged tablet computers has been found to be much lower over the product’s lifetime. Ruggedized devices are designed for adverse conditions and have long battery life, meaning that they last much longer than consumer-grade products. They also prove more reliable, with fewer operating issues, less data loss and fewer repair costs over the years.

This has an impact on more than just the rugged tablet computer itself. For example, suppose a client in field service relies upon a consumer grade device and it breaks down. He then needs to travel back to the office to get a replacement, or have one sent out to him. That could mean traveling hundreds of miles, resulting in a lost day of work and subsequent delays. With rugged tablet PCs, those risks are reduced considerably.

In addition, our MobileDemand’s devices run on Windows OS: a well-established and reliable operating system perfectly suited to the needs of rugged PC users and also highly compatible with the majority of back office systems.

Consumer devices cannot currently perform seamless, built-in barcode scanning and similar functionality, and they raise questions about security and reliability of access. In order to compensate, these non-rugged devices often require third-party peripherals, eliminating the integrated effectiveness that the MobileDemand Tablet PC products already offer. Playing it cheap in the short-term isn’t a path to business success.

xTablet T7000 Rugged Tablet PC 3 keyboard options

On our xT7000 tablet we have 3 keyboard options to make inputting data as simple as possible for operators:

1. Windows 7 on screen pop up keyboard


2. Built in numeric/function keypad


3. Plug in QWERTY keyboard

Whilst application designers will always aim to provide field workers with drop down and multiple choice routes for data entry sometimes needs to add a narrative to a record so using a keyboard is unavoidable. Users of rugged tablets are often stuck with using the on screen keyboard when the most ergonomic route may well be a specific numeric keypad, especially in high volume scenarios like Direct Store Delivery. With our integrated numeric backlit and tactile keypad and available full QWERTY users can capture valuable information to ensure better business decisions and provide increased customer service. The integrated keypad is a backlit numeric keypad that includes programmable keys as well as Enter, up / down / left / right navigation, tab, escape,Security, rotate display, function key barcode scan and suspend/power Full Stop! Also included is a built in decimal point/full stop key. No more assigning short cuts from other keys. Very useful where surveying and measurements are being recorded.

Where the user needs to add narrative and would prefer not to use the on screen keyboard our QWERTY keypad attaches to the bottom of the xT7000.
