Audio Interview with Drew VanWeerthuizen, Public Safety Office Supervisor

"We're able to log items, take pictures, and have all the information readily available at our office computer. We're able to show pictures and describe items. We can go grab an item and return instead of going back and forth...

I would recommend it 10/10; extremely likely to recommend it for anyone looking for an upgraded or newer system. We really do like the program, and it’s a system we couldn’t be without."
- Drew VanWeerthuizen, Public Safety Office Supervisor
