A JobRunner alternative.

A small job app carries a small operation well, until there are two branches, vehicles full of stock and an office that needs to control who sees what. Vynta is the next stage: data scoped to the branch, stock on each vehicle reconciled back to it, and compliance that stops an assignment instead of mentioning it afterwards.

  • Works with no signal

    The job carries on in a basement, a plant room or a farm, and syncs when the bars come back.

  • One record per job

    Photos, checks, parts, travel, hours and the signature sit on the same job. Nobody types it up twice.

  • One price per seat

    R599 a month for the first seat and R99 for each extra user, with 14 days free and no card.

The work

2 sections

Grow without starting over

What a three-person shop uses stays as it is. The structure holds when the team doubles.

  • Customers with more than one branch, and every job, note and asset with its branch
  • Assignee lists limited to the technicians who cover that branch
  • Roles across admin, office, technician, driver and shared terminal
  • Reports per branch or across the business, each drilling to the jobs behind the number
  • Pause in a quiet season instead of paying for idle seats

Stock and gear, held properly

Parts that leave in a vehicle without a record are the quiet leak in every trade business. Every vehicle becomes a stock location with a running balance.

  • Parts used on a job come off that vehicle by themselves
  • Restock asked for from the field, moved from branch stock
  • Stock takes that test the count against the record
  • Company gear booked out by the day, by serial or registration
  • Checks that stop an assignment when a certificate has lapsed

Switching

5 points

What matters when you switch.

We won't put words in another vendor's mouth. Here is what Vynta does on each point, and the question worth asking anywhere else.

  • Multi-branch control

    Vynta

    Data scoped to a branch and assignee lists to match, with roles across office and field.

    Ask any alternative

    Can one team be stopped from seeing another branch's jobs?

  • Stock on the road

    Vynta

    Stock per vehicle, used against the job and reconciled to the branch.

    Ask any alternative

    How does a part used from a vehicle reach the branch count?

  • Compliance enforcement

    Vynta

    A lapsed certificate stops the assignment; overdue checks show up before an inspector does.

    Ask any alternative

    Does it stop an unsafe assignment, or only report on one?

  • Customer portal

    Vynta

    A portal in your name: log a call, watch the technician arrive, sign off, see the history.

    Ask any alternative

    What can a customer do for themselves before phoning the office?

  • Pricing

    Vynta

    R599 a month for the first seat and R99 for each extra user, with 14 days free and no card.

    Ask any alternative

    What does the tenth seat cost, and does it move you to a higher plan?
