Mi-Co Mobile Impact Platform

PROS

- Very easy to use - Rapid development times - No programming or special technical skills needed - Fully supports multiple integration options - Customizable and scalable based on my needs

CONS

- Wish it was more of today's UI/UX, doesn't look dated, but could use a visual touch-up.

Very Satisfied

We have been able to transition from outdated forms software to Mi Apps. Overall it has been a smooth transition. We have some ways to go, but are making steady progress to increasing overall efficiency with forms from creation to storage.

PROS

It's ease of use. From designing a form to rolling it out to our organization could not have been easier. Even with some complex workflows, the forms rolled out quickly. The support we received from Mi Apps made for a smooth roll out of the forms. We have gone from pushing paper from employee to employee to forms being automatically file din to charts for record storage. Having employees having the ability to work off line has also increased productivity. Employees can now focus on providing service to our clients and not worry about coming in to the office to file paperwork when there is no internet service.

CONS

Honestly the product is solid. We have not have any major issues come up that has prevented us to move forward with the software directly related to Mi Apps.

Reason for choosing Ideagen Smartforms

All the reasons mentioned above: -Efficiency - Off Line production -Advanced technology

Reasons for switching to Ideagen Smartforms

Infopath became outdated and is no longer going to be supported. Infopath served its purpose at the start but has so many deficiencies that have held us back from advancing with technology. Mi Apps has now allowed us to move ahead again.

Mi-Forms in a mobile dental clinic setting

PROS

I like the adaptability to our unique needs and the reliability in responsiveness to questions. They are always willing to provide suggestions and to think about how we will use it in the field. They are very timely in completing updates.

CONS

The program may crash here and there. Unless a user is well versed in its ins and outs, they will struggle to recover information. Otherwise, the program works seamlessly between each of the devices.

Health in the field

The NYU College of Dentistry Global Outreach Program and Mi-Co have partnered to develop a mobile electronic data collection system that allows for us to collect patient data, diagnosis, treatment, and progress notes in a systematic manner. NYUCD Global Outreach programs operate mobile dental clinics in the United States and in four different foreign countries in any given year, as well as provide oral health instruction to children within a classroom environment. We have been delighted to have worked with Mi-Co during the first phase of project. Our fieldwork is unique and the manner in which we gather our information is unique. Mi-Co was more than responsive to our needs, and offered many ideas and suggestions without hesitation so that the user-experience did not come at the expense of the primary purpose of the system: data collection. Mi-Co is also prudent in matters related to data security and exchange. Moreover, Mi-Co recommended the hardware (tablets) that would run their application in an efficient manner while we operate mobile dental clinics. These clinics can be crowded, hectic, and extremely fast-paced. To date, the software and hardware have worked very well together. Mi-Co has been very responsive to our concerns, dependable, and punctual with rolling out certain aspects of this project. We are so confident in Mi-Co that we have continued to expand the mobile data collection project further by developing a more refined reporting mechanism, as well as initiating a second project related to the collection of qualitative data from a questionnaire. We have faced little in the manner of cons. Even with a system-wide shutdown that was caused by an NYUCD operator on the last day of one of our mobile clinics, Mi-Co tried to fix the issue over the phone. Regardless, the data collected was salvaged by Mi-Co and was not compromised as a result of user-error. Overall, NYUCD's Global Outreach Program is highly satisfied with Mi-Co's form, application, and constant ability to mesh both the technical and practical aspects of the projects we have undertaken.

Most flexible solution for the whole company, but too expensive w/o an enterprise licensing option

Mi-Apps is the most flexible solution if your goal is to provide data collection apps to various departments. However, the larger the company, the more decentralized its departments operate. The license cost per user is just way too expensive to be used as a data collection solution for a single department, especially that it is not really an out-of-the-box solution for research-oriented use cases. The need to do 80% customization to make it an actual solution does not really justify the high cost of the user licenses.

PROS

Independent customization using the form designer and JavaScript Customer Support is very quick to respond to issues

CONS

No enterprise licensing option, license cost per user is way too expensive compared to others Responses to technical questions are metered & charged extra on top of product support cost

Mi-Apps Software review

My experience with Mi-Apps and Mi-Co as a company has been very successful. The Mi-Apps allows my developers to create and deploy end user forms very easily.

PROS

Our company has utilized Mi-Apps since the inception. The product allows for quick data capture in the field without the need for an internet connection. This is one of the strongest features for our clients who work in remote locations across the United States.

CONS

We wish there was a way to toggle between "forms". For Health Inspectors, being able to view the history of inspections, for specific violations helps the inspector decide the point deduction value if it is a repeat. Currently, they cannot toggle between forms.

Mico product review

PROS

Ease of design. Professional looking forms. We can easily change the business rules that each form or module of forms allows. Coding in the forms is easy to follow once you get the hang of the sections where the code exists. The vendor thru our account manager is very responsive to our questions and has worked some of our suggested enhancements into newer versions of their product. Part of the benefit to this software is the consistency of the design in the forms that we use across the system. In too many other products we have used it still is up to the software designer as to how the page will look. In Mico's designer we can easily design a form and based on the x and y axis position the various fields consistently across all forms.

CONS

Another development tool that we must stick to the vendors rules. However with the maintenance package they provide we do have customizations.

Excellent Application

Mi-Apps is used by field inspectors to record their observations during the construction of buildings. The inspectors adopted this application readily and in doing so have increased their efficiency and ease of report delivery to contractors, cities and internal staff. It has virtually eliminated the time spent in administrative tasks and allowed them to commit more time to their primary responsibility.

PROS

Ease of use. Performs as designed. Efficiency of users has increased.

CONS

Older version of form designer was a little cumbersome.

I am impressed with the Mi-apps team

A+ in customer support. They are very willing to customize the app for us, and they have a keen understanding of what we need for our business/industry.

PROS

I like that it is user-friendly and pretty upfront. I really like the support we receive for the Mi-apps. I love working with their team.

CONS

Sometimes the updates mess things up in the app and we have to do workarounds to get it to function properly again.

Mi-Corporation Data Capture Software Suite

PROS

Mi-Corporation provides an entire suite of products that complement each other. Some of the key features we enjoy are easy to build data capture forms in the designer, the publishing process of the forms to the Mi-Co server along with the seamless distribution of the forms to our end users. The processes are are highly efficient and easy to use all around.

CONS

The Mi-Co Client is a very processor/memory intensive application. Sometimes this may cause older systems to freeze, crash or other hardware anomalies. One other dislike is once a form is built for a target platform, such as an iPhone or Android, it is very difficult to change that form to interact with a full size PC without creating a new form.

Great Product with Awesome Support

Great software, very stable and flexible for the purpose we intended. The support from Mi-Corporation has exceeded our expectations. They are one of the most responsive and helpful vendors we've ever used. I truly believe they care about their clients and will do whatever they can to help them be successful.

PROS

Mi-Apps is an easy to use form builder that will handle 90% of use cases using the out-of-the box features. However, when you need to customize a form to add additional functionality, client or server side code will make the possibilities almost limitless.

CONS

I wish there was one portal to access Mi-Apps, MEMS, Designer, and Mi Analytics.

Pros of using Mi-Apps

PROS

What I like most about Mi-Apps is the ease of use. You can enter a response with a click of a button, and employees can be easily trained on how to use it.

CONS

The old version didn't allow you to make changes as easily, but practically anyone could make basic changes with NexGen Design.

CDP's Use of MiCo Forms Designer

PROS

This product not only allowed us to develop an off-line field client, which is absolutely critical with our product, but allowed us to create it in a way that eased the transition from paper to tablets by having the forms look identical to our clients paper forms. With over 300 individual users, even the least computer savvy of them was able to use our product with minimal training.

CONS

The memory usage. We needed to instruct our users to assure no other software (Office, anti-virus, etc.) was running when they used our mobile product.

If we could give 6 stars, we would...superb money-saving software implementation

For our project the Mi-Forms team was beyond fantastic....they helped us implement the software on our tablet and incorporate it into our procedures with truly amazing levels of customer support from their programmers and developers. They treated us like gold. Even after the project. And the software has been running now for nearly 4 years with zero hiccups and Mi-Forms keeps updating the software which shows they are continually developing it and making it better. When we implemented Mi-Forms, we chose a small project of automating our shipping process and giving our customers fast updates on their shipments. With Mi-Forms we have so vastly improved our shipping that we were not affected when one of our shippers retired and our remaining shipping staff asked to have their desk moved into the plant....thereby saving tons of time on walking back and forth and cutting wage costs. Plus we have expanded Mi-Forms into safety and billing. The savings and mistake-proofing that arose out of the use of Mi-Forms is stellar. Cannot rave about it enough.
