Published: November 24, 2022
Manual.to is excited to announce their partnership with Crate.io in supplying their flagship product CrateOM.io with the Manual.to technology. Together, we provide operators on the work floor with data-driven, step-by-step instructions.
Manual.to & Crate.io – Partnership Press Release
Manual.to, the company that offers user-friendly software to radically simplify workplace instructions, today announced the latest development as part of its evolving OEM partnership with Crate.io , the enterprise data management company that enables data insights at scale. As part of its ongoing partnership with Crate.io, Manual.to will be embedded within CrateOM , a new smart solution that helps companies improve operational processes by transforming device data into actionable insights.
Available in the cloud, at the edge, or in a hybrid environment, CrateOM provides real-time insights and in-app communication to allow data-driven decision making, align cross-functional collaboration and create transparency across the organization. Manual.to is a pivotal part of CrateOM, providing step-by-step instructions and videos for contextual troubleshooting. Issues can be solved in rapid time, and downtime is reduced. In addition, Manual.to’s video-based tutorials can also be used to simplify and speed up staff onboarding, as well as deliver significant cost savings.
Manual.to enables clients to create digital manuals in minutes. Combining video and text, companies and their workforce can build effective how-to guides, driving productivity and success. Traditional manuals (prints / pdf / videos) take too much time to make, are not intuitive on mobile devices and become outdated fast. With Manual.to, employees have access to a growing suite of tips, training and tutorials to up-skill themselves and solve problems in minimal time, from any mobile device.
“Creating written instructions can be costly and ineffective, and employees are increasingly turning to platforms like YouTube when they face an issue. Video-based learning from peers benefits employees, adjusted to their style of learning. That is why Manual.to has created a way for organizations to train their workforce and address issues in real-time – anywhere, on any device and at any time,” said Jorim Rademaker, CEO of Manual.to. “Crate.io is a brilliant technology partner for Manual.to and we’re excited to see how our collaboration has developed to where we are now with CrateOM.”
The collaboration has been phenomenally successful, not only for product development but also with regards to a mutual client project. The global plastic manufacturer ALPLA has already implemented the smart process solution CrateOM, including Manual.to’s powerful tutorial tool. CrateOM officially launched on November 23, 2021.
Founded in 2016 and headquartered in Belgium, Manual.to customers and partners include Microsoft, Volvo Cars, ALPLA, Xerox, Atos and many more.
