Why Your Manual Mobile Diagnostic Center is Out of Date

Cell phones have come a long way since their beginnings as oversized car phones. What used to weigh pounds now weigh ounces, and comes with full featured web browsers. Today, we walk around with what amount to tiny computers in our pockets. Almost 70 percent of the entire country own a smartphone.High ownership rates have driven phone innovation, to the point where three main companies dominate the mobile space.It’s made life both easier and harder for people dealing in cell phone diagnostics. Mobile tools have evolved with phones, but not every business has adopted them.If you’re still using a mobile diagnostic center, you’re doing your company a disservice. Full featured universal diagnostics tools exist that make life much easier.Don’t believe us? That’s why we’re breaking down why your manual mobile diagnostics center is out of date.

It Only Works For One Phone Brand

Before iOS, Android, and Microsoft dominated the mobile market, resellers used to rely on proprietary software for mobile phone diagnostics. This meant loading different software for each individual phone manufacture. Samsung, LG, Motorola; each company offered their own diagnostics software.Running a manual mobile diagnostic center means using outdated software of this nature. You’re wasting both time and money by running multiple diagnostics softwares.

It’s Tedious

Manual mobile diagnostic centers require users to input commands for running every different test. If you’re testing the battery, screen, or bluetooth, you’ll end up with many separate tests.It’s a pitfall of less sophisticated software. Modern phone diagnostics tools can run many tests simultaneously on “batches” of different phones.Your can test enough phones at once that you’ll end up saving thousands of dollars over the short term. Not to mention the time you’ll save batch testing phones.

Independent ESN Checks

ESN numbers are like phone social security numbers. Checking these numbers is the difference between reputable resale and the stolen phone market.A manual mobile diagnostic center won’t include the ability to check ESN numbers. This means you’ll end up independently verifying each and every ESN.As with everything else, verifying large quantities of ESN numbers will cost time and money. Carriers keep their own ESN lists, and while master lists do exist, they cost money to access.It’s much easier to access ESN checks through your mobile diagnostics software. Modern software includes these checks during routine testing.

No Valued Certification

Part of reselling mobile phones is building trust between your consumers and your business. The phones you sell need to maintain consistent high quality.Older phone testing software only offers a guarantee that’s dependent on how diligently you as the tester inspected the phone.PhoneCheck offers a certification that you can offer your consumers so they know the used phone is in pristine condition.Reselling mobile phones has everything to do with saving time, money, and your reputation. An older mobile diagnostic center could cost you all three.Staying current with your mobile diagnostics software is vital to running a success phone remarketing business. An easy switch to newer software will make all the difference.
