Zerion Software Inc., the creator of the iFormBuilder mobile platform, today is pleased to announce iForm 3.2 with Linea-pro integration, allowing iPod touch devices to be utilized for field services, work order management, and point-of-sale (POS) solutions. Linea-pro, created by Infinite Peripherals Inc. adds laser-based barcode scanning and credit card scanning to the iPod touch and other iOS devices. Together with iFormBuilder, users can create complex business solutions with best of breed hardware and software.
"Ever since we saw the Linea-pro in Apple Stores months ago, we have been trying to get our hands on it. It's a perfect match for iFormBuilder." said Sze Wong, CEO of Zerion Software, "With Linea-pro, we can turn an iPod touch into a business grade productivity machine." The flexibility of iFormBuilder combined with Linea-pro allows any business to create a mobile work order management system, dispatch system, support ticket system, or other field service system out of the box.

"With the Linea-pro, we're markedly improving business efficiencies through technology," said Jeffrey Scott, vice president of sales at IPC.

This combination makes Linea-pro an 'out-of-the-box' business solution for businesses of any size."

iFormBuilder is a business-grade mobile data collection solution leveraging the iPad, iPhone, iPod touch and Android devices. It provides secure, scalable, flexible, effective, and efficient mobile data collection for teams on the go. iForm turns a text field in any form into a barcode scanning widget. Along with Smart Table Search, users can access data such as product inventory or customer lists, which can be stored locally on the device, and dynamically looked up via a scan of the barcode even if the user is offline.

The unique, patent-pending Linea-pro from Infinite Peripherals, is designed to allow any retail business to benefit from the ease-of-use, convenience and efficiency this handheld system offers, in addition to maximizing valuable floor space by eliminating POS counters and traditional cash register purchases.
