Zones Imagery
• Advantage Acre• Field Select, Auto via image or drop points. • Nice Desktop weather. • In field crop info limited. • Like Mobile app scouting functionality
• AgDNA• trying to set up activity app shut down • Cant set up activity without machinery • Took a while to set up boundaries on app, figured out later. • List incomplete, no Crabgrass • No search items (weeds/pest) • Has a way to document impassable spots • Recording software. Does a great job of recording activities.
Notes
• AgraScout• Can only add crop and planting date
• Looks like you can schedule scouting from desktop
• Dropping pins not that precise.
• If adding in field cannot scout immediately as it needs assignment.
• Don’t save unless done, locks out event
• Touch issues with corn ear worm (did not bring up ear worm)
• Thinks a lot
• I like the image showing up after the select
• Agronomic Manager App, not one would suggest for private consultant.
Notes
• Agrian• Emial notes on single pin, • does not look like whole scouting trip. • emails nice PDF• Finding Surgo Not Easy• Label available. • CCA Ready
• AgriSite IPM• Added fields easily, • Trouble saving notes Growth Stage was blank, image loading errors. • Did not always save notes• option list was very short. • Not a fan of the annotations noting method.
Notes
• AkerScout• Seems like a good Manager/agronomist app.
• But not allow on the go field set up is a challenge.
• Can do from ipad hooked to internet.
• Really like the image with item search Send Scout via web
• Financial Threat interesting
• Enicira• Send notes
• Crazy long load time in web.
Notes
• Farm Dog Scout• Drops pins, not sure about after fact edit.
• While entering field data if you hit outside of box, you lose.
• Easily adds fields on site
• Has insect and disease list, no weeds.
• Farm Logs• In App Auto field select.
• Not easy to edit.
• Shows soil type up front when adding field
Notes
• Farm Pad-Tap Logic• Don’t typically have demos, offered 1 few week then charge card.
• Did offer to provide a developers demo
• A bit clunky in app and Desktop but good functionality.
• FieldView• Auto Selects boundaries, can not easily edit lines.
• In app adding Nitrogen Application cannot see N source, wont let save
Notes
• Field X• Full Field Note taking,
• Geo Note a point reference app in beta.
• Manager Picklist, Extremely Extensive list.
• But Have to create pick list.
• OpenScout• Needs internet to add from location.
• Very nice scouting function
Notes
• AgWorld Scout• 30 day fre trial. • satellite view in app moves fast • Desktop drops a pin, but think it needs shapefile. • barcode scan • Needs attributes set up by manager.
• Scout Pro• Short period• Love the ID, if I don’t know what I have, • Don’t like going through steps to Get to something I know. • Cant Select from Library
Notes
• Sirrus• Has a buddy app
• Labels available
• Performs well for what I would expect a consultant to need,
• would work in a larger comp also.
• CCA ready.
Notes
