Automatic mobility data updates in the kintone app
By accessing SmartDrive’s API, Cybozu was able to incorporate acquired driving data into their “kintone” service. With this added data stream, drive history and daily reports are automatically added to the admin screen when vehicles are used for business purposes. This creates a better overview of daily business activity, combining driving data with existing sales and delivery information. Managers are also able to check for overtime or excessive workloads and employees no longer need to hand write daily reports.
