"One of the key features that stands out from the rest is the portability and the flexibility it provides to manage consulting or audit projects from various devices while on the go. Now, I will be able to use my iPhone or iPad to update a conclusion to a work step, assign a task to a team member, and instantly access a status report while I'm in a meeting. I can also upload a picture of a document as audit evidence without having to use a scanner while I am in an interview and not at my computer."
"Auditors in the field can upload photos, documents or even request additional information direct from their iPhones; users can instantaneously respond to requests; and busy managers can identify and address problems from anywhere," added Zitting.
