Trolle vs paper & spreadsheets
Most companies don't switch from another system – they switch from paper, text messages and spreadsheets. Here is how the working day differs.
| Paper & spreadsheets | With Trolle | |
|---|---|---|
| Time sheets | ✗ Slips and spreadsheets collected after the fact – often late and with gaps | ✓ Clocked on the phone against the right project – done in real time |
| Drive log | ✗ Kept by hand in the cab, if it is kept at all | ✓ Written automatically from the vehicle's tracker |
| Work orders | ✗ Whiteboard, texts and phone calls | ✓ Planned with drag-and-drop – the team sees their schedule on their phone |
| Job status | ✗ Phone rounds: ”are you finished over there?” | ✓ Real-time status on every work order and vehicle |
| Invoicing data | ✗ Hours, materials and kilometres chased down afterwards – revenue leaks | ✓ Collected on the work order while the job is done – ready to invoice immediately |
| History | ✗ Binders and the memory of whoever was there | ✓ Searchable history per customer, asset and machine |
| Deviations | ✗ Mentioned in passing and forgotten | ✓ Reported on the phone with photos – followed up until resolved |
| Reports & follow-up | ✗ Compiled by hand in a spreadsheet afterwards | ✓ Ready-made reports and charts – export to PDF, Excel and CSV |
| Sensors & alarms | ✗ Discovered once something has already broken | ✓ Sensors raise the alarm and create work orders automatically |
