Updates for Gas Engineer Software – September 2020

Hello there! Autumn is right around the corner, and we thought we’d talk to you about some of the changes and improvements we’ve made to Gas Engineer Software as we head into your busiest time of the year.

As you may have seen on our social media, our integration with Anton went live recently! This integration allows you to pull readings from your Anton FGA straight into a Gas Safety Record on Gas Engineer Software, helping you save time and cut down on data entry mistakes. The integration is available on all iOS devices, and if you’re on Android we’re slowly making it available to users as part of a much larger update. You can read more about it here.

Otherwise, many of the changes this month are behind-the-scenes, as we work to make the software even more reliable no matter what device you choose to use it on.

Take a look down below for a full breakdown of the 5 releases and 23 individual changes we made this month.

All of these updates and improvements are from your feedback and suggestions.

As always, thank you for your ongoing support.

Kind Regards

Tulloch Priest
And all the team at
Gas Engineer Software.
