PDonScene Favorably Reviewed In Law And Order Magazine

(CHANDLER, AZ - July 15, 1998) - Law and Order Magazine, a respected law enforcement publication, published a favorable review of PDonScene command post software in its July 1998 issue. Independent reviewer Tim Dees wrote, in the review titled "Software for Managing Tactical Incidents", "I was impressed with the functionality of PDonScene …. [it] is user friendly, does not have heavy duty hardware requirements and has the potential to preserve resources and lives". Tim went on to state that he found that "The log of the incident provides a much more detailed record of the events then a stenographer would be likely to create".

FieldSoft applications, including PDonScene, are used by incident commanders to manage people, resources, and events while on the scene of an emergency. The software automates most – if not all -- incident management functions formerly handled with pen and paper based worksheets, checklists or marker boards. On-scene activities are automatically logged to an incident history file. It fully supports any command system in use by law enforcement today. PDonScene is an automated tool that actively facilitates control and coordination of people, procedures, events, and on scene resources with the touch of a finger.

Tim Dees revealed an additional conclusion not mentioned in his review, following its publication. Tim stated that "I've reviewed a lot of niche software products that have a limited number of copies in use. Usually I find one or more issues or bugs that are bound to occur when you don't have thousands of people running the software. I found no such thing with PDonScene. It ran bug free just as it was supposed to".

The favorable review illustrates why FieldSoft command products are the choice of incident commanders who want software that is easy and simple to use.
