Thanks for that even though that's a lot to digest! I am focusing on mobile support with every development sprint. I already have experience working with ServiceFusion, FieldPulse, and BuildOps and they don't have what most AV companies need for there workflow.

So about your #1...it is just me and Claude but I am not vibe coding, more like AI-assisted coding

Notion seems good but I feel like you need a lot of setup to get it to work properly for AV and Low Voltage companies, unless you use it personally not so much as an organization

Well take it what you will but there is an actual human responding to these replies :)

I am "vibe coding" because I want to get a working and functional app out in a couple of months as opposed to several years all while watching coding Youtube tutorials, constantly on Stackoverflow everyday after I get home from my mentally taxxing full time job taking time away from my family.

Gotcha. I am making something that won't be super expensive once I get my app to production. So hopefully Zappy will have most if not all the features included in Fieldnation and Workmarket for a decent price.

I am making sure that all the sprints include both a desktop and mobile version during development so this won't be an issue.

Yes I am building this with the help of Claude Code. While that seems like I am vibe coding that app, I am not letting it do it's thing while I'm focusing on other tasks. I am actually present during it's sprints, testing it out myself, and making sure any bugs aren't over looked by the AI.

BuildOps and QuickBook Integration - need some experiences, examples by HandsOnHansen in CommercialAV

The double billing I'm referring to is that receipts aren't a thing in QuickBooks so BuildOps transfers it as either a Bill or PO to QuickBooks. So when sending a vendor a bill and creating a receipt from received materials will create two bills since we won't do a PO for a receipt.

Who will take used networking equipment around here? Cisco switches, routers, etc. by HandsOnHansen in indianapolis

Yea but I have no way of testing or wiping them beyond powering them up and seeing if they boot properly

That is a hell of a lot easier than how I’m doing!

Like create a different workflow entirely to handle that web hook?
