Elliott Data Systems, Inc. Announces New Software

Elliott Data Systems’ Mobile Solutions® is a suite of software designed to perform secure personnel/first responder, asset and event data management among other accountability functions, to support Emergency Management Agencies (EMAs) and other first response organizations. The Asset Manager Software solution has been integral to Elliott’s Mobile Solutions® systems, enabling first responders and agencies across the United States to perform automated accountability during routine and emergency events over the years. But its latest Mobile Solutions® 7.6 software release makes everyday use of the system easier to access and more affordable for these departments.

Organizations were previously able to run Asset Manager on multiple PCs and share one centralized database using the online Data Server; however, with the 7.6 release, Asset Manager can be deployed on premise or online as Software as a Service (SAAS) hosted by Elliott Data Systems, Inc. Additional product enhancements incorporated into the release include dynamic NIMS typing, additional data fields for custom info, advanced search functions, additional asset transfer options, and an updated user interface.

While the new Asset Manager Web Application enables organizations to expand and unite their asset management process online, the Asset Manager Client Software can still be positioned as a main support center for the administrative network. This software works both on- or off-line and supports system hardware peripherals such as mobile computing, printers, and scanners. Mobile Solutions® flexible design allows multiple hosting options. The asset database is housed on an Asset Manager Server that may be hosted on the organization’s network at a department facility, on a Mobile Solutions® Command Case in the field, or deployed as a (SAAS) model. With SSL data encryption and a hierarchical user rights system, Asset Manager Web Application provides multiple layers of asset data protection.
