STORING PHOTOS

How to store photos for any property preservation work orders?

If you work as a property preservation professional, then you must know how essential it is to take great photos to document any work order if you need to get paid by your clients. Besides, after you take the pictures, you need to store them someplace if the audit of the same work order is yet to complete. And also, you may need an easy and faster way to transfer photos to your crew as emailing the zip files is way too much time-consuming.

• The most common, best, and the most reliable software in the property preservation business to store all your pictures at one place are PPW (Property Preservation Wizard) and PruVan.

  Property Pres Wizard (PPW) and Pruvan are web based and mobile applications used to manage work orders and to understand the state of the property in the property preservation industry. Both software deals with all the information through the flexible chain that connects the employees, clients, and the company head together so that they can work profoundly and improve productivity without any issues. You can have all your photos, invoices, bids in just one place by using these applications.

  PPW and Pruvan are well-organized applications in this industry and helps every client and the company with their requirements. You need to sign up for their services as they are the paid platforms but much more reliable than any other. Both are integrated with national clients to ease the performance with different national platforms and sync the data and pictures at once.

  To make the hectic and confusing process of storing photos easy, follow the below simple steps that will help you transfer and maintain the photo documentation for any property preservation work orders more efficiently with these active applications:

Step 1: Download PruVan, Property Preservation Wizard (PPW), or Dropbox to your PC. These are the most popular applications used for the transfer of photos in the property preservation business. The attraction of these applications is that once you download it to your PCs, cell phones, and tablets, you can access your photos any time you want from any device you have without emailing them each time you need to see any of your property preservation photos.

These applications are safe and free. They permit you to share folders with others with a faster speed than just emailing.

Step 2: For PPW: Click on the ‘sign up’ button, fill the required field, and sign up. Log in to your new account on the web, you can create different logins for your contractors, managers, processors and give different permissions to each one of them based on their role to access your data/photos.

Step 3: For Drop Box: You will have a default folder in your new account. Begin making a folder for each work order within this defaulted folder. Name each folder as per the property address, and then the work order assigned to each property. You will find it easy to sort every detail if you arrange them in the mentioned manner.

Step 4: Lastly, ensure that your contractors, co-workers and staff transfer photos to you by using the application. Also, see that they precisely use the same folder and work order to avoid any confusion in the photo documentation. Along with these applications, many companies also use Google drive or any FTP servers for photo documentation and transfer.
