Our developers here at Ubiquia have been hard at work designing the latest enhancement to our SQBX line of tracking solutions. We have created a true point to point tracking system for inter-office mail. Here is how it works. The originator can create a shipment directly from their desktop through our web based shipping portal. This will give the originator the option to rate shop the package to ensure the lowest possible rate to meet their delivery objective. Once the rate is selected, they can print a shipping label to affix to the package. At this time, a pick up request will be sent to the mailing staff that there is a pending shipment ready to be picked up. When the mail courier picks up the package from the originator or sender they will scan the package in as picked up and this is the beginning of the tracking process. If the package is traveling by common carrier like UPS or FedEx you will be able to see the shipment status directly in SQBX even though it is outside of the boundaries of your organization. Once the package lands at it's destination and scanned in as received, this status will be visible to both the recipient as well as the sender. The package will finally be delivered to the end recipient and signed for which is the final step in the tracking process. The system will provide complete visibility to both the recipient and the sender as to the current status of a particular package. Call today and request a live demonstration on our Point-to-Point package tracking system and see for yourself the POWER OF SQBX.

Whether you are tracking packages or tracking mail pieces it is important to have some type of package tracking software to do the leg work for you. The old fashion way of tracking a package once it has been delivered to your organization starts with a phone call down to the mail room or the receiving dock. At this point it is up to the personnel who are typically swamped with the sorting and routing of all of their inbound packages to research and locate the package that is in question. This process could take hours depending on the volume of packages received and when that particular package came in. Tracking parcels is not a simple procedure if you do not have the proper package tracking system in place. Here at Ubiquia we have designed a web based tracking solution called SQBX. This system makes tracking a package quick and easy. Since SQBX is web based we can provide global visibility of your mail/packages from any computer connected to the internet. This will reduce calls down to the mail room or loading dock to locate packages. In addition to finding the package quickly in the system, SQBX is also a proof of delivery software. With the use of a mobile device you can capture a signature of the recipient and prove that a certain person had signed for the package at a given point in time. All of this information can be visible if the user has been granted access to the system. SQBX is simply the fastest and most powerful tool to implement for your package tracking needs. Whether you require a complex enterprise package tracking system that covers multiple locations or are just looking for a simple one site installation, SQBX is the best way to track a parcel or package.

The SQBX package tracking system is an enterprise mail and package tracking and delivery management system that supports both workstation and mobile computer receiving capabilities. In other words you can receive inbound mail and shipments using multiple computer workstations or use our mobile handheld computers like the Motorola MC55. Depending on your situation workstations, mobile computers, or a combination of both may fit your needs. Situation: You Simply Want A Count Of The Packages Dropped By The Carrier Both our mobile computers and the web-based workstation software have the capability of a quick scan of inbound packages to get a count of the packages unloaded by the carrier. All that's required is a quick scan of the carrier barcode on each package to give you a count of the total packages received. This allows you to verify the number of packages the carrier is having you sign for. Later when time avails itself you can rescan each package and enter the details required for your internal operation. Situation: Computer Access To Your Receiving Dock Is Not Available No problem, use our mobile computers to receive packages into your organization. You can enter the same details on the mobile computer that you can with the desktop computer. In fact, multiple mobile computers can receive on the dock. Each user can than take his packages directly out for delivery. Situation: Your Company Has Detailed Data Requirements To Track Inbound Packages In this case it may work better for you to enter receipts into the workstation. Obviously a computer workstation has a much larger monitor and usually a full size keyboard for entering data. Entering large amounts of package receipt data into a mobile device slightly larger than a cell phone may get tedious. Situation: You Require Internal Routing Information To Be Attached To The Package Typically this requires using the computer workstation with an attached label printer. However, this will soon be available on our mobile computers as well. Speed vs Mobility A computer workstation has a lot more horsepower than the processor on a mobile computer and therefore is a lot faster when receiving packages and conducting research on your receipts and deliveries. However, sometimes the mobility of the handheld computer is so convenient that using it for receiving outweighs the speed of the desktop. This is certainly the case during the delivery process. It's unlikely you're going to be satisfied lugging your desktop computer around your mail route to capture the recipients signature. SQBX Mobile, whether used on the Motorola MC55 or on your Windows Mobile cell phone, is built the world's fasted compact database technology. Our mobile application can support the largest data capacity in the industry. It's also very fast. So feel confidant that whether you chose the computer workstation or the mobile software, you'll receive and deliver packages and mail expeditiously.

With all the hand held devices available for inbound tracking, it can get pretty confusing choosing the most appropriate device to best meet your needs. There a few basic questions that you must answer. It is important to lease or purchase the right model because certain features cannot be changed later on. For example if your inbound tracking process requires taking a picture of damaged packages then you need to get that feature initially with your device, because it can not be added later on. For example, when using mobile computers in an inbound tracking process ask yourself the following questions: Do I need or want cellular capability on my device? With SQBX Inbound Tracking Software it's not required because data can be synced only when needed. But if you're going to use SQBX for external delivery routes and fleet management or if the device needs to have real-time capability outside of your building, you're going to need this option. What carrier will I be using with my device? Hand held devices only work with certain carriers. If you do choose cellular capability with your mobile computer be mindful of the carrier to hardware relationship. I'm sure you're aware that Verizon phones do not work on T-Mobile networks and the converse is also true. Do I need a camera in my device? Handy if you want to document the delivery process with photos...for example damaged packages. Will I be scanning one or two dimensional bar-codes? The Motorola MC55 offers 1D scanning (UPS labels) or 2D scanning (FedEx labels). The FedEx 2D barcode has additional information embedded in it. Of course there is a 1D barcode on the FedEx label as well. What environment will I be using my device? Warehouse, Mail room, Office, etc. This question can help determine how rugged your device should be. Will I need Wi-Fi capability? If cellular connectivity is not required the device must be docked in a cradle to exchange information. All Motorola MC55 and MC70s have wireless networking capability which may allow you to exchange data via the wireless network instead of having to dock the device in the cradle. How long is the battery life needed for your task. A single battery can provide 3-5 hours of usage. If you'll be using the device in the field longer than this consider a 1.5 or 2 times battery size.

Do you need to track assets or manage inventory? Asset tracking is a simple process that can be defined as "what assets do i currently have in storage, what assets are checked out, and who is responsible for a particular asset."

SQBX is a web based receiving, visitor tacking, and asset tracking system that you access through your web browser. It is completely hosted and managed by us. There are several reasons why this is cost effective for our customers. - You don't have to buy any servers. To compare SQBX to other receiving systems you have to remember that our receiving software can serve one workstation or thousands of workstations. If you wanted to do this with our competitors you're going to need you own servers to serve the application to your company's workstations. You'll have to pay for the hardware and the operating system.
- If you need your own servers you'll need internal I.T. support to manage and back up your system. Even if you're only getting one workstation you're going to have to manage data backups. With SQBX we back up your data incrementally everyday. We do full backups on the weekends. All backups are taken off site for safety.
- Someone has to physically install the software on each workstation. The cheapest way is for you to do it. Our competitors however will charge you. This could become quite expensive if you're a large enterprise. SQBX is ready to go. If you choose SQBX for you package tracking, visitor tracking, or asset management needs your account can be ready to go in as little as one hour.
- Your software may become antiquated. If you purchase your software you may never get updates unless you pay for them. SQBX is always up to date with the latest enhancements and newest technology.
- You may have to wait to get service from your software provider. With SQBX however, support is a mouse click away. Our customers rave how quickly their questions are answered. We're fanatical about supporting our customers.
When you way all of these things up selecting a hosted solution for receiving software is a good choice. Overall you'll save money, get faster support, and always have the most up to date software.
