“We use Fulcrum for training, pole inspections, line patrol, just about any type of field operation. We incorporate it into as many places as we can to see what information we can collect from our crews.”
Brian Stroud, Vice President and GIS Developer
GeoForce Utility Technology
“Before Fulcrum, 2 full-time employees plus a contractor were needed to perform 45 inspections a day. With Fulcrum, that rate increased to 60 inspections a day with only the two employees, eliminating the need (and expense) of an outside contractor.”
Northpower
“We found Fulcrum to be really easy to work with. From the user side, it was always one of our favorite apps, if not the favorite.”
