Q: What are some of the options to access Fusion and/or listing data from a mobile device?
A: All current solutions are built around the concept of remote access. These solutions are generally used to get around the user’s lack of Adobe Flash, which isn’t supported by today’s mobile devices. Fortunately, some software developers have come up with options. While these solutions work well technically, they may be less than ideal for everyday use as a business tool because they provide you with only a mirror of what you would see on a desktop or a laptop; they are not interface-optimized for a mobile device. This might be ideal when you need some information only available via Fusion or you need to make a minor listing adjustment and you are not near a computer, but would not be so ideal if you are looking to load a full listing.
