Switching to Imfuna / Surveying & Inspection
Switch before the next survey.
Changing survey software feels riskier than it is: your templates, your wording and your sign-off survive the move - and from the first survey, capture, photos, dictation and the finished report run on one platform, with the record frozen from day one.
Why surveyors and inspectors move
Rarely one dramatic failure. Usually the write-up, every working evening.
- Write-ups finished at home, evening after evening
- Snag lists rebuilt in spreadsheets because the tool cannot hold them
- Capture that stalls the moment the power or the signal drops
- No audit trail when a report is questioned months later
- An archive that exists only while the subscription does
No platform yet?
Still building snag lists in a spreadsheet?
Plenty of surveyors and inspectors come to Imfuna from Word, a spreadsheet and a camera roll, not from a rival platform. Row by row:

What switching actually involves
Book a walkthrough
A working session run on your own workflow. Bring a recent report; we will show you how the same inspection runs in Imfuna - capture, dictation, output.
Set up your templates
Survey, snag list and condition report templates are already there, and your own formats are configured with you - structure, wording, branding.
Run your first survey
Offline-first capture on iOS or Android: photos with GPS and time stamps, floor-plan pins, and dictation instead of typing. Load shedding does not interrupt any of it.
Retire the old tool
Download your reports and photos from the old account before you cancel it - then close it. Everything from here is captured once, frozen on generation, and kept for seven years.
Why customers stay
Four things you can verify up front:
Running since 2009
Fifteen years of continuous operation, through every hype cycle the industry has produced.
Built for work on site
Offline-first capture that keeps working in basements and voids with no signal, and dictation instead of typing - everything syncs when you are back in coverage.
99.9%+ uptime, every year
When the diary is full and the clock is running, the platform is up - above 99.9% in each of the last four years, measured internally.
Evidence kept for seven years
Reports freeze on generation and re-render byte-identical. Originals - GPS and time stamps included - are archived for seven years.
- 600,000+
- inspections carried out on Imfuna
- 60 million+
- photos captured
- 99.9%+
- platform uptime, measured year after year
- 7 years
- originals archived, stamps intact
Two things to test on your first survey
Both are checkable on day one, on your own work.
The output
Your current report, next to ours.
Bring a recent survey or snag list to a walkthrough and we run the same property in Imfuna. The comparison is concrete: the write-up happens on site, every photo is stamped and attached to the section it evidences, and the finished document freezes on generation.
- Write-up done on site, not at a desk that evening
- Every photo GPS and time-stamped, attached to what it evidences
- The finished report freezes on generation - nothing silently edited
Product screenshot to come
Composite: a typed Word survey report beside the same survey finished in Imfuna - same property, same day, two documents.
Audit trail
Reports freeze on generation.
An issued report re-renders byte-identical months later. Issue history is append-only, originals keep their GPS and time stamps, and everything is archived for seven years.
- Byte-identical re-render of any issued report
- Append-only history - nothing silently edited
- Named sign-off on every report
Offline-first
Load shedding is not a work stoppage.
Imfuna's capture is offline-first by architecture: download the inspection before you leave, work through the outage, and everything syncs when power and signal return. A full day with no connection is the normal case, not the exception.
- Full capture offline: photos, dictation, condition ratings, signatures
- Sync resumes automatically when the connection comes back
- No lost work when the schedule and the outage schedule collide
Snag lists & commercial
From a single snag list to a whole development.
The same capture runs a one-bedroom snag list and a phased handover programme. Developers, contractors and commercial practices run structured, photographed, signed snag and condition programmes - priced on application, shaped around the project.
- Snag list and condition report templates, configured with you
- Every defect photographed, located and tracked to close-out
- Programme pricing on application for teams and developments
Hundreds of businesses run their inspections on Imfuna
Surveyors and inspection businesses among them - in their own words.
I was initially a little reluctant to get started on this new way of working due to a habit and fear of new technology. However, once I started to use the system, I can only say that it has transformed my week… I no longer have to work nights and weekends, and all reports are completed for the client within 24-48 hours, rather than the usual 5 working days. I would thoroughly recommend the system to other Surveyors.
Questions we get
What happens to the reports in our current system?
They stay where they are. Finished reports are finished - keep the PDFs, and keep access to your old account for as long as its retention terms require. Imfuna does not import another system’s data; your record here starts with your first survey, captured and frozen properly.
Do we have to rebuild our templates from scratch?
No. The library templates are ready to use, and adjusting them to your structure and wording is part of onboarding - or you can build your own in the app. If you would rather hand it over, share a sample of the report you issue today on the Custom Report Template Build page and a specialist rebuilds it in Imfuna, end to end. On Enterprise and custom agreements, speak with our team - the build is part of your individual quote.
Does it work through load shedding?
Yes - by architecture, not by workaround. Capture is offline-first: download the survey before you leave, work through the outage, and everything syncs when power and signal return.
What does it cost?
The Professional plan and programme pricing are on the pricing page - in rand, excluding VAT, with a free trial.
